Finally we back to win, maybe we can have again chance to stay in World League 1st division..

 

Relax, even if you end up last, FIVB will probably change the format again to keep you with the elite, like they did with Russia.

Which teams will have the permanent status and why the hell for 7 years??? And which teams will be invited? Netherlands finished top 15 last three years, but is not on the list. If for example The Netherlands and Slovenia doesn't have the chance to collect points for the World Ranking, there is - in the new Qualification procedure for the OG - no chance for the Netherlands and Slovenia (and many others) to qualify. It's a shame FIVB!!!

Thank you, thank you very much :old: :roflmao:

 

A closed system, shoking, not... 7 years of course is absurd, actually the whole format is absurd, but that has become a tradition with the League. France were shit for 10 years and weren't on the map and who is to say that another team won't have a slump too. But hey they have are a big name (market), we will keep them forever, who cares about strenght.

 

If i had to guess the 12 would be - Brazil, Russia, USA, Poland, France, Italy, Serbia, Argentina, Iran, Canada, probably us or Japan or Germany..

And of Course, FiVB just HAD to push J$p$n into the group of non-relega ting teams :lol: after all they are world class team, not some amateurs from Slovenia  or Germany :lol:

 

Honestly, if this passes, I am done with the World League (or "12 teams only" league) farce starting next year

My favourite Volleyball position: LIBERO. You ask why? Look here. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZyIOarNAONk

To be fair World League should have 16 teams and another 16 the second division and 2 teams to be relegated/advance between them

Okay, I am all in for 16 teams in all three divisions, but the teams who would be promoted to first group should be Germany, Slovenia, Australia and maybe another european team to try and keep the level. Not Japan and China. This looks just like a money grab by FIVB. I am not saying this current sistem is good, (mostly because of half-empty stadiums during matches - i dont get it why FIVB changed the system after 2015  either) but is still much better than the proposed one. The World League already seems not so prestigious as few years ago. But if this system comes to life... :(

D-day for us. Is either winning and F6 or losing and nothing.

Sad to see if we qualify we'll 99%sure eliminate Stephan Antiga's Canada though :(

    • I love that it is more straightforward in relation to the number of quotas and does not allow possible problems as it was in Tokyo and Paris.
    • I love the judo qualification system, for me is the best in all disciplines. It combines a strong circuit, and it allows 100 or so countries to participate in.   So, maybe, if UWW does its job properly, it will be a good thing.
    • China Media Group (CMG) will broadcast all 116 gold medal events of the Milan Winter Olympics live on CCTV-1, CCTV-5, CCTV-5+ and CCTV-16. It will also use technologies such as 4K/8K ultra-high definition to enhance the viewing experience. Live broadcasts of all events will be carried out from 16:00 Beijing time to 06:00 the next day.
    • The strength of the UK is that they are 100% focused on the track, while Italy must to navigate between the track and the road: the line-up is different for practically every event, etc. Paternoster should focus 100% on the track; she won't win anything big on the road anymore. As it is, she's weak both there and there. The situation is different with Balsamo, as she's also having significant success on the road and likely earns the most money there.
    • Discovery+ in the UK have also got their schedule up now.     I notice that only thing listed as being in UHD is the Opening Ceremony though....     
    • The problem over the last few years was that no-one was able to keep pace with the big Katie Archibald turns. Looks to be sorted now.  
    • The women's top 50 is so crammed with athletes from the same five nations that it is not inconceivable they are unable to fill the full quota from the top 50, in which case a third double spot would open up between USA/BEL/GBR
    • That women's pursuit team looks brutally fast. Batter you over the head into submission brutal, perhaps not seen since the early Trott-Rowsell days The 4 minute barrier could be on borrowed time.   The two British women sprinters Finucane and Caldwell also look pretty ominous, indeed the whole women's sprint team looks in some shape and with some depth to get that result without Finucane   Work to do for the British men's teams, but they won't be unhappy either, not to mention Joe Truman's unexpected Kilo win.
    • I prefer to do mine like this guy (https://app.podiumsport.it/) does his "Projected Medals" as probability based rather than straight medal picking... all things being equal, conversion rates should be about the same and the outliers come out in the wash. Unfortunately most people just like medal picking, and think any other approach is weird  
    • So probably: Men Oceania: Americas: Africa: Asia: One of  Europe: One of Host: World Rankings: Combination of  (probably not)  and whichever countries don’t qualify from Asian Games.  Universality: ? Final Qualification Tournament: One of the above in World Rankings    and one of  (most likely) or  seem safe with two quotas. The other will be favourites if a third team gets allocated two.    Women Oceania: Europe: One of Americas:  /  if US is ineligible due to their host quota, if the host quota gets reallocated then Canada will be in contention in the rankings Africa:   Asia: One of   Host: World Rankings: Combination of  (x1?)  (x1/2)  (x1/2), whichever doesn’t qualify out of  / ,  and  ? Final Qualification Tournament: One of above.  Universality: ?    is safe with two quotas between  it’ll be tough for whoever misses out of those three.   nevermind ,
