FIVB Announces Updates to VNL
TEHRAN (Tasnim) – FIVB announced updates to its 2020-2021 volleyball calendar following cancellation of Volleyball Nations League (VNL) 2020.
According to FIVB.com, the VNL 2021 will be held starting from the second week of May 2021, either May 7 or 11, 2021 with the starting date to be confirmed shortly, and ending on June 27, 2021, finishing almost one month before the Olympic Games Tokyo 2020.
This schedule will ensure that volleyball players have time to prepare for both the VNL and the Olympic Games, maintain their health and fitness, and perform at their best for these prestigious competitions.
Meanwhile, the FIVB is continuing to work closely with all parties to coordinate the detailed schedule for the VNL 2021 while retaining both Italy and China as the host nations for the finals.
