The dates are confirmed as there is a document of olympic qualification system that is downloadable from the FIVB which updates the system and states that the dates are 2-4 August for Women and 9-11 for Men

So, probably Netherlands and Turkey will fight for the last Olympic ticket (European qualifier).

With this set up it's easy for me to predict the teams that will go to Tokyo.

 

Japan, Brazil, Argentina, Serbia, Russia, Italy, Netherlands, USA, Dominican Republic, China, Cameroon... and Korea or Thailand.

Where did you read that? Poland is out of the top 25 of the World Ranking, so normally there's no place for Poland in the OQT. Maybe Poland organizes one of the OQT (or Poland gets a wildcard)?

This is info from Polish Volleyball Federation (PZPS).

PZPS got the message, that one of team resigned. FIVB confrimed Poland could take part in OQT, probably in group with Serbia.
