Accreditation
System
In order to streamline access to information and
coordination with media professionals at volleyball
and beach volleyball events around the world, the
FIVB Communications Department launched an online
media accreditation platform at the end of 2011.
This system has become an essential tool for event
organisers and members of the press to coordinate
coverage and reporting of the sport in all media.
FIVB Media Club
Registration
The online accreditation system requires that media
professionals around the world first register to become
a member of the FIVB Media Club.
Once the applicant has registered their details online
and submits the form to the FIVB, the individual will
receive an email confirming receipt of their information.
This information is then sent to the applicant’s national
federation for verification.

FIVB Volleyball
World Championships
As the original FIVB tournament, the Men’s
and Women’s World Championships are
staged every four years and are the most
prestigious in international volleyball.
The first FIVB Volleyball World Championships were
organised in 1949 for men and 1952 for women and
have remained the biggest event in volleyball, alongside
the Olympic Games. A record number of 279 teams
participated in the qualification process for the 2014
FIVB Volleyball World Championships. This total, coming
from 166 national federations across the five FIVB

confederations, represents an increase of 90 teams from
the previous best of 214 teams from 119 federations for
the 2010 World Championships (compared with 102 in
2006, 72 in 2002 and 63 in 1998).
The FIVB Volleyball Men’s World Championship Poland
2014 saw the host country seal their second championship
title with their win against Brazil in the Final. Germany
completed the podium after defeating European rivals
France in the bronze medal match to take their first
podium place as a unified country at the tournament.
The USA clinched their first ever gold medal win in the
tournament with a victory over China in the Final of
the FIVB Volleyball Women’s World Championship Italy
2014 while Brazil held off hosts Italy for bronze.
The next FIVB Volleyball World Championships will take
place in 2018 with the host countries yet to be decided.
The road to the Olympic Games commences with the
World Cup, the quadrennial round robin event that
showcases the very best 12 men’s and 12 women’s
national teams in the world.
Japan and television partner Fuji TV host an event that
grips the nation and produces incredible television ratings.
The FIVB Volleyball World Cup 2015 for
women will take place from August 22 to
September 6 while the men’s edition will be
held from September 8 to 23.
Traditionally, the top three teams in the men’s and
women’s competitions at the World Cup had earned
berths in the Olympic Games volleyball tournaments.
However, the 2015 edition will offer that reward to the
top two sides only.
Poland hosted the first World Cup in 1965 for men only
before Uruguay hosted the first World Cup for women
in 1973. Following the first two editions for men and
the first edition for women, Japan gave new life to the
Men’s and Women’s World Cups by staging the third
and second editions respectively in 1977 before going
on to host every edition since. Italy’s women successfully
defended their title in 2011, with USA clinching silver
and China following with the bronze. Russia picked
up their second gold in a row in the men’s event with
Poland finishing second and Brazil third. The 2018
Women’s World Championship will be held in Japan.

FIVB Volleyball
Grand Champions Cup
The FIVB Volleyball World Grand Champions
Cup is played every four years in the year
following the summer Olympic Games and
preceding the World Championships.
The tournament, first held in 1993, has been hosted
by Japan each time and features six teams in both the
Men’s and Women’s competition.
In 2013 the teams comprised the hosts, the four 2013
Continental Champions from continents whose teams
reached the highest ranking in the preceding Olympic
Games and a wild card team, jointly selected by the FIVB,
the Japan Volleyball Association (JVA) and the Nippon
television Network Corporation (NTV). This sixth edition
of the FIVB Volleyball Women’s World Grand Champions
Cup was held in the cities of Nagoya and Tokyo in Japan
and was followed by the FIVB Volleyball Men’s World
Grand Champions Cup in the cities of Kyoto and Tokyo.
In the men’s competition Brazil beat out the competition
in the round robin tournament for the gold medal,
ahead of silver and bronze medallists, Russia and Italy.
Brazil then went onto win the top spot in the women’s
competition, making them the first women’s team ever to
triumph twice in the World Grand Champions Cup, while
USA finished in second place and hosts Japan in third.
FIVB Volleyball
World League
FIVB Volleyball
World Grand Prix
Volleyball’s flagship annual event for men, started by
the FIVB in 1990, is a spectacular showcase for the
crème de la crème of men’s volleyball.
The World Grand Prix featured eight teams in its debut
season in 1993 and from 1995 to 2002, while 12 teams
were in action in 1994 and from 2003 to 2010. Sixteen
teams took part in the 2011 and 2012 editions with this
increasing to 20 in 2013 and finally a ground-breaking
28 teams in 2014.
For the first time in 2014, the FIVB Volleyball World
League featured 28 teams. As a result of the expansion,
three Finals were held. The Group 3 final featured
teams from Pool F and G with a Final Four held in Bursa,
Turkey. Cuba eventually came out on top following a
win over the hosts while China completed the podium
by beating Slovakia. Teams from Pools C, D and E made
up the Group 2 Finals, with hosts Australia defeating
France 3-2. Australia’s win meant they could join teams
from Pools A and B in Florence, Italy for the grand finale.
The Finals in Italy saw USA take their second gold medal,
adding to their 2008 title, after beating Brazil in the
deciding match. Italy completed the podium with bronze
after they defeated Iran, the first Asian team to finish
among the top four in the history of the tournament.
The 2015 World League is expected to be the
biggest and best yet with the 26th edition
of the tournament – scheduled to take place
from May 16 to July 19 – expanding to include
a record 32 teams.
The tournament will follow the same group format as
last year with the Group 3 final taking place from July
3 to 5 in Slovakia, the Group 2 final taking place from
July 10 to 12 in Bulgaria, ending with the Group 1 Finals
from July 14 to 19.
The 2014 edition of the FIVB Volleyball World Grand
Prix ended with three Finals – Tokyo (Japan), Koszalin
(Poland) and Samokov (Bulgaria) – serving as a climax
to the competition for the teams in Groups 1, 2 and 3
respectively. The Preliminary Round saw the 12 highestseeded teams in Pools A to I (Group 1), followed by
Pools J to O (Group 2) and Pools P to S (Group 3).
Bulgaria topped Group 3 to earn promotion for the 2015
tournament, while Belgium edged the Netherlands in
five sets to top Group 2 and earn their ticket to the Finals
in Tokyo. There it was Brazil who picked up their 10th
crown. They led Japan, who sealed their first ever medal
in the tournament with silver while Russia completed
the podium, adding a 12th medal to their tally.

World Championships
The annual FIVB Men’s and Women’s Club World
Championships, which returned to the international
volleyball calendar in 2009 and 2010 after featuring in
1992 and 1994 respectively, showcases the best clubs
from each continent.
The 2010 edition marked the return of the double
gender event after 18 years and, for the first time,
featured alternate men’s and women’s matches in the
same venue on the same day.
In the men’s tournament, Italy’s Trentino won four
successive titles in 2009, 2010, 2011 and 2012 before
Brazil’s Sada Cruzeiro broke their hold on the tournament
in 2013. Then in 2014, Belogorie Belgorad became the
first ever Russian winners of the tournament beating
Qatar’s Al-Rayyan to gold. Argentina’s UPCN held off
host club Sada Cruzeiro to clinch bronze.
Russian women’s club Dinamo Kazan clinched the 2014
edition of the women’s competition, as they defeated
Molico Osasco of Brazil in the Final. SESI-SP added
another Brazilian side to the podium after they beat
hosts Volero Zurich to take the bronze medal.
In 2015, the FIVB Women’s Volleyball Club
World Championships will take place in
Zurich, Switzerland from May 5 to 10, with
Brazil hosting the men’s competition later in

held in 1977 followed by the Under 18 and 19 World
Championships which were inaugurated in 1989. A new
competition – the FIVB Under 23 World Championships
Open – joined them in 2013.
At the age group World Championships in 2013, Russia
beat Brazil to claim their ninth gold medal at the Men’s
Under 21 World Championship while China overcame
Japan to claim their second Women’s Under 20 World
Championship title. Russia defeated China to clinch

World Continental Cup
and World Cup
The ground breaking Beach Volleyball World
Continental Cup and the FIVB Beach Volleyball
World Cup provides a new opportunity for
countries to qualify for the Olympic Games.
In addition to the 16 vacancies offered on the FIVB
World Tour. The first edition of the Beach Volleyball
World Continental Cup was launched in 2010, building
up to the London 2012 Olympic Games. A country
versus country Olympic qualifying event, it was staged
from June 25, 2010 to July 1, 2012 and disputed at
the continental level (subzonal, zonal, final). The five
winners of the Beach Volleyball World Continental
Cup – one from each Continent – qualified for the
Olympic Games. The 2012 Beach Volleyball World Cup
Final Olympic Qualification tournament took place in
Moscow, Russia and offered two additional Olympic
berths for countries which had not qualified through
either the FIVB World Tour or the Beach Volleyball
World Continental Cup. This first World Continental
Cup cycle ended with the FIVB Beach Volleyball World
Cup Final, which took place in Campinas, Brazil held
from May 29 to June 2, 2013. Much to the delight of
the home crowd Brazil took gold in both the men’s and
women’s competition.
Alison Cerutti and Emanuel Rego claimed men’s gold
and the title of the Beach Volleyball World Continental
Cup champions, while compatriots Maria Antonelli and
Talita Da Rocha Antunes took the women’s title.
The new Beach Volleyball World Continental Cup cycle
has already begun as countries begin to plan their path
to the Rio 2016 Olympic Games. The first phase of the
CEV, CSV and AVC Beach Volleyball World Continental
Cup have now drawn to a close, with the NORCEA and
CAVB editions finishing in early 2015.
Other Events
The FIVB is also responsible for developing and managing
events such as Challenger, Satellite (whenever under
the jurisdiction of the FIVB), Exhibitions and Country
versus Country.
These events have boomed in recent years
and are the perfect platform for creating
the next generation of sporting stars and
personalities.
Challenger and Satellite events are part of a successful
FIVB and Confederations development programme
which aims to provide countries with the opportunity to
promote an international event within a limited budget.

DEVELOPMENT
Cooperation through
collaboration
Developing the sport
at the grassroots level
The FIVB Volleyball Cooperation Programme (VCP) has
been the essence of development since 1989. As the
pillar of development programmes in federations, the
VCP courses are run worldwide and are in place to
educate and teach young players, teachers, coaches and
referees the fundamentals of the sport. The courses target
the less developed federations and qualified instructors
assist with the development of the game.
The Volley All Festival and Cool Volley programmes
ensures the ” ball keeps flying “ through thousands of
children worldwide. Every year, national federations
organise mass volley events, providing a fun, enjoyable
and competitive environment for young players.
In 2014 over 1,700 people attended VCP courses in 57
countries with the total number of events rising to 1,201
since the initiative was first introduced. Last year also
saw total participants since VCPs began pass the 30,000
mark. As a result, federations continued to benefit
directly from the programme.
In 2014, over 576,000 participants took part
in Volley All Festivals and Cool Volley events
across 61 countries on every continent.
Education and re-education are fundamental aspects
of the development programmes carried out more
generally by the FIVB. This makes the FIVB truly unique
among International Sports Federations in terms of its
delivery of educational programmes, which serve the
less developed countries while delivering specific high
performance programmes to others.
Ensuring the growth, evolution and
advancement of volleyball has always been
a central aim of the FIVB. The Development
Programme has continued to work hard to
achieve these ambitions with much success.

Medical
The FIVB’s Medical and Anti-Doping programme focuses on prevention through
education, ways to keep the sport of volleyball clean and the protection of athletes
and referees’ health.
The FIVB’s Anti-Doping programme seeks to preserve
the spirit of volleyball and beach volleyball while
maintaining the ideals of ethics, respect, fair play and
honesty as well as the athletes’ health.
The FIVB developed an online Anti-Doping Education
programme – ’FIVB Play Clean’ – to educate volleyball,
beach volleyball athletes, medical officials and coaches
on their rights and responsibilities. The programme
also provides guidance on healthy lifestyle attitudes in
order to deter athletes from doping. The course exists in
several languages and so far more than 18,000 users
have completed the programme.
As the FIVB is committed to the protection of its
athletes’ health, it has established several programmes,
ranging from injury prevention to heat stress. The FIVB
has focused primarily on the prevention of injuries and
illness, the reduction of long-term disability through
proper diagnosis, treatment and rehabilitation, and
ways of maintaining volleyball as a drug-free sport.
FIVB studies continue to be published in renowned
sport medicine journals. The health of our referees is
also important therefore a Referee Health Management
Programme is also conducted throughout the year.
The FIVB also wants to share and communicate its
knowledge and updates about Anti-Doping and Medical
news. As a result, a Twitter account (@FIVBMedical) was
launched in 2014.
For more information, please
visit the medical section at
http://www.fivb.org/EN/Medical/index.asp
Moreover, outreach programmes have been implemented
on competitions to gain the awareness of players for
anti-doping and to give the opportunity to players to talk
and exchange with people specialised in anti-doping.
As doping is fundamentally contrary to the spirit of
sport, one of the FIVB’s goals is to keep the playing field
clean and level. To this end, the FIVB conducts regular
and random anti-doping tests and has an extensive
testing programme in place, both during and out-ofcompetition with blood and urine tests.

Administration meeting in March 2012.
The FIVB Beach Volleyball World Cup Final determined the champion country from the World Continental Cup, featuring
10 countries per gender represented by one team each. The 10 countries included the winners of each of the Beach

FIVB
HISTORY
The founding
Members rising
A decisive moment in the history of volleyball’s first 100
years was certainly the founding of the FIVB (International
Volleyball Federation) when in April 1947 representatives
of 14 countries (Belgium, Brazil, Czechoslovakia, Egypt,
France, Netherlands, Hungary, Italy, Poland, Portugal,
Romania, Uruguay, USA and Yugoslavia) met in Paris
under the leadership of France’s Paul Libaud to found
the FIVB. Libaud, president of the French Federation, was
elected first President of the FIVB.
From the 14 founding members the FIVB grew to 45 in
1955, 89 in 1964 and 101 in 1968, distributed over the
five continents : 25 in Europe, 25 in Asia, 25 in Africa, 11
in South America, and 15 in NORCECA (North, Central
America and the Caribbean). Today the Federation
counts 220 affiliated national federations including 53
in Africa, 65 in Asia, 56 in Europe, 34 in NORCECA and
12 in South America.
The headquarters were established in Paris, where they
remained for the first 37 years until 1984 when the FIVB
moved to Lausanne, Switzerland.
Dr Ruben Acosta succeeds
President Paul Libaud
One of the big turning points for the FIVB came in
1984 when President Paul Libaud, by then in his 80s
and highly acclaimed for having founded the Federation
and making it a significant reality on the world sporting
stage, resigned after 37 years of leadership. Dr Ruben
Acosta was elected President to succeed Libaud at the
World Congress in Long Beach, California, USA.
The Move
Continued growth
The FIVB moved its headquarters to Lausanne, Switzerland, the same year, bringing it closer to the International
Olympic Committee and providing a wonderful base to
promote the sport in global competitions held in the five
continents.
In 1993 the FIVB became the largest sports organisation
in the world with 210 affiliated member associations.
From game to great
TV spectacle
At the same time, volleyball went through a number of
modifications to change the face of the sport. The need
to make it more telegenic in order to attract fans and
sponsors led to major modifications in 1998, such as
the introduction of the Rally Point System, the Libero
player, the “ let ball in play ” rule and many other new
regulations that made the game much more attractive.
Jizhong Wei becomes
third FIVB President
The FIVB entered the next phase of its life in 2008 when
Jizhong Wei was elected the new President at the 31st
World Congress in Dubai, United Arab Emirates. The third
leader of the organisation came after 37 and 24 years
of continuous improvement under President Libaud
and Dr Acosta respectively. At the same time, the FIVB
moved its headquarters within Lausanne from Avenue
de la Gare to the stunning “Château Les Tourelles ”.

HISTORY
Investing in
Development
FIVB-United Nations
collaboration
Evolution
of the Rules
The FIVB invested more in development during 2009
than any other year in its history by allocating increased
financial resources to the FIVB confederations to help
national federations. The key behind the new initiative
is increased support for grass roots development, with
the beneficiary in the long term being volleyball right
around the world.
The UN and the FIVB signed a Global Partnership
for Development agreement in 2011 where both
organisations announced their intention to promote
shared values, to drive forward international development
and to support the attainment of the UN Millennium
Development Goals throughout the world.
A challenge system is introduced for the FIVB’s major
volleyball events allowing the captain of the team
to challenge and the second referee to consult a
television replay courtside to verify a decision. There
are a maximum of two challenges per team, per set. A
team keeps the number of available challenges if their
challenge is successful.
Dr. Ary S. Graça F° elected
fourth FIVB President
The entry process for FIVB beach volleyball events was
also modified providing greater recognition to the
national federations. The National Federation ranking
was introduced to determine which countries could
participate in tournaments plus whether they would
play in the Main Draw or Qualifying Round of those
tournaments. Once the national federation positions
are determined, the teams (registered to play) with the
highest entry points from those respective countries fill
those vacancies.
A brand new FIVB
In 2011 the FIVB launched a new rebranding and
marketing campaign in order to usher in a new era for
volleyball and beach volleyball. As part of the rebranding
a new FIVB logo was unveiled.
Jizhong Wei announced he was to step down as FIVB
President in 2012, paving the way for the organisation’s
next leader. Brazilian Dr. Ary S. Graça F° was elected his
successor at the 33rd FIVB Congress in Anaheim, USA,
signalling a new era for volleyball as he promised to
innovate the sport through technology.
Expanding tournaments
for increasing audiences
The FIVB U23 Volleyball World Championships Open and
the FIVB U23 Beach Volleyball World Championships
provides further opportunities for players and helps
bridge the gap between age group volleyball and beach
volleyball and the senior level.
The World League and World Grand Prix are also
remodelled with an increase of teams of 16 to 18
for World League and 18 to 20 for World Grand Prix.
This is expanded again for the 2014 season with both
tournaments welcoming 28 teams. The 2015 World
League will welcome 32 teams for the first time.
TECHNOLOGICAL
ADVANCEMENT
PAVING THE WAY FOR THE
FUTURE
The year 2014 saw two ground breaking FIVB World
Championships take place in Poland and Italy, with a
record 62,000 fans attending the opening ceremony
and match of the Men’s World Championship at
the Warsaw Stadium. The World Championships
also marked a turning point for the FIVB in terms of
innovation and its focus on making the game more
modern through the use of technology.
Following the completion of the World Championships,
the volleyball family met in Cagliari, Italy for 34th
FIVB World Congress. In a key decision, the Congress
limited FIVB Presidents to serving a maximum of two
terms (an initial term of eight years followed by a four
year term) after approving a proposal from the Legal
Commission to bring the Constitution in line with
the International Olympic Committee. The decision
enhances the transparency in governance the FIVB
continues to strive towards.

key
rules
The libero is a key defender
The libero is a skilled defensive player who is fast and
is usually first to the ball.
The libero helps keep the rally alive
The libero’s main responsibilities are to receive
service and defend opposition attacks in a controlled
manner in order to enable subsequent attacking
options for his/her own team.
More territory
The libero is responsible for a
much greater part of the
court than his/her teammates.
“Bump”: a controlled
pass between players.
“Shoulder roll”: a last resort in
defence in order to dig the ball, more
common in the women’s game.
“Dive”: enables a player to get low to
the ground to pull off a great dig or save.
The libero has a special set of rules
The libero can replace any backrow player but only when the ball
is out of play.
Libero
Source: FIVB
Front-row
The libero may only perform as a
back-row player, therefore cannot
serve, block or hit the ball when it
is higher than the top of the net.
Obviously different
The libero wears a different colour shirt in
order to stand out. Though performing as a
leader, the libero cannot be team captain.
