Just like about any other organisation.

 

Well, they got screwed in Rio qualification. I don't get how FIVB can have such a low sense universiality in beach volleyball (funnily that wasn't the case in the indoor volleyball)... Big nations have milion chances to qualify a full team. Continental cups are already ridiculous since more than one good team is required, and yet FIVB manages to make it even more unfair by allowing already qualified nations to compete. :facepalm: And don't get me started on how Russian women's beach team suddenly became eligible to compete at the final QT despite failing to qualify for that.

 

In short, nation like Vanuatu will never qualify in these conditions, no matter how hard they try. :p

Bronze!! :clap::clap: Finally Larissa and Talita won a medal. Anyway, this was a not very good championship for Brazil, only two pairs in the Quarterfinals.
 

 

I agree, not a great championship for us, but I thought we wouldn't even get a medal. That bronze medal match was so close!

Our girls were so disappointed because they didn't come home with a medal, they have only played 7 tournaments together which is great that they already have such high goals and results behind them. A few years ago I would've never thought we would have 7 teams in world championships of Beach Volleyball.

    • I am going to use this as evidence for my belief that the only way for baseball to continue growing is to increase the importance of International tournaments.   Because shocassing stars in those environments is how the MLB can grow their viewership abroad.
    • If this were Milan from 20 years ago, it would be a success but currently it`s just a European average team and on top of that it is not in top form. Milan's defense this season resembles Swiss cheese.
    • Bologna is unfortunately is a team for the Conference League, not the Champions League   Juventus are plagued by injuries and are struggling. On top of that they have a terrible schedule in the CL. In their case qualifying for the play-offs would be a success in this season but I'm not sure how many points they will need to do that. Actually they chave 8 points.
    • Four events with medals awarded halfway into the first day, and already six NOCs are on the medal table 
    • First day of sporting action today. There's livestreams available on the official website: https://www.bolivarianos2024.pe/envivo/   PanamSports Channel should be broadcasting events as well.
    • Pretty crazy, just imagine if they won the World Baseball Classic (though personally I equate the two pretty closely).
