2021 Volleyball Nations League schedule announced!

The International Volleyball Federation (FIVB) made the anticipation for the return of its annual competition, the Volleyball Nations League (VNL), by announcing the schedule for the 2021 edition.

Of course this year the competition has been interrupted due to the coronavirus pandemic.
Women will break the ice on May 11, while men will start on May 14.
The FIVB retained the format of previous seasons, meaning that 16 teams per gender will face each other in pools of four teams each during a five-week period after which the six teams taking part in the final tournaments (Final Sixes) will be determined.
All venues for the Intercontinental Round are yet to be confirmed but what’s known is that China will host the women’s Final Six, while Italy will organize the men’s Finals. Both are scheduled at the same time, on June 23-27.
