FINALLY :thumbup:

 

BOARD DISCUSSES OLYMPIC QUALIFICATION PROCESS FOR TOKYO 2020

Marrakesh, Morocco, May 4, 2017 – A proposed qualification process for the 2020 Tokyo Olympic Games was discussed by members of the Board of Administration during their two day meeting in Marrakesh.
 
The system of qualification put forward to board members is designed to enhance the universality of participating teams at the Olympic Games in Tokyo in four years’ time. Under the proposed system, world and international tournaments will provide countries with their first opportunities to secure their places at the Olympic Games, with Continental Championships and world rankings providing the remaining spots.
 
The qualification process will be confirmed after approval and ratification by the International Olympic Committee (IOC).
 
Volleyball qualification process
 
With host country Japan already guaranteed a place in Tokyo, the World Olympic Qualification tournament will provide three countries with their ticket to the Olympic Games. This tournament will comprise 12 teams including the 2018 World Champions, the tournament host country and the top two teams from each of the five confederations. A further three spots will be up for grabs at the International Olympic Qualification tournament, which will be composed the top 12 teams in FIVB World Ranking. The remaining five places will be filled by the winners of the Continental championships. 
 
FIVB Volleyball World Cup will still feature in the FIVB’s 2019 competition schedule although it will no longer provide a qualification spot for the Tokyo 2020 Games.

Volleyball and beach volleyball at the 2020 Olympic Games in Tokyo

Tokyo sees the Olympic Games return there after they were first hosted in the Japanese capital in 1964. For volleyball there is special significance and emotion, as it was in Tokyo 1964 that the sport was first officially introduced to the Olympic Programme.

The Games of the XXXII Olympiad will begin on Friday, July 24 with the opening ceremony and wrap up on Sunday, August 9 when the Olympic flame will be extinguished and the Olympic flag handed over to the organisers of the 2024 Games. Both the opening and the closing ceremonies will be held at the Tokyo Olympic Stadium, which is undergoing an extensive facelift for the event.

The men's and women's volleyball tournaments will be held at the to-be-built Ariake Arena, designed for 12,000 spectators, on area reclaimed from the sea. The Ariake area will also host cycling, gymnastics and tennis at Tokyo 2020.

Wow, a system that doesn't cripple the european teams. :yikes: I have to see it to believe it.

Hopefully it will be approved. The old system was a joke a not fair towards Europe.

^ It won't make any difference for Europe in women's volleyball. Maybe in men's there will be one more team (but isn't 100% sure either).

 

Of course it isn't sure, but at least you get a fair chance to compete and the best team gets the quota. And there aren't any made up tournaments that forbid european teams from competing..

Amazing performance tonight by Poland against very strong :IRI team.

Beautiful debut for Ferdinando De Giorgi and career end for Ignaczak. Two rather easily won sets to 19, and although Iranians fought hard we also won the third one 25-23. Very good match :)

    • Unfortunate, but it doesn't change the fact that I'm looking forward to Thursday evening, when the team captain's meeting is over and we have our very first World Cup start list of the season. Always a cool moment to see who's there and everything  
    • Today I unpacked some of the boxes in which we have put my way too many books to move to our house, and I came across these beauty's I hadn't seen for a while     Absolutely recommended, tough to get for a decent price, but they are such an interesting read with lots of very interesting little stories! Still looking for at least 1900, 1904 and 1906, but not really in the right moment to spend money on that now, so the wait goes on  
    • Which I guess is part of why unfortunately 'our' first wild card attempt of the season was rejected last week  
    • The next chapter in the Krasnobaeva saga is upon us.   Looks like  Armenia have cut ties with her after only a few weeks. A person from their Federation has said, that they won't continue the relationship, because of her unprofessional and rude attitude towards the coaches and other officials. That includes: - having no respect to the coaches and their advise; - training without any motivation; - stops doing the routine and throws objects without any reason; - just lays on the floor and ignores the music.   When this was escalated with her mother, she mentioned that "Elvira has a strong temper and she was the same in Bulgaria and they tolerated her". Which of course is complete BS. If anyone attempted this shit here, they would be thrown out immediately.   And now  are wanting from her mother to return all finances they gave them, which she is refusing, so they will probably sue them. They will also inform other RG Federations about this situation, so they don't hire them.   My 2 cents on this is most likely Krasnobaeva was happy in BG and was forced out by her mother, so now she is sabotaging the move and be done with it.
    • Honestly Ruka is my favourite World Cup event of the whole season. Everybody is there. Later on there is always someone who skips one weekend or another . Not everybody takes part in Tour de ski. But here everyone shows up.
