The FIVB U17 World Championship for both genders was proposed by the FIVB Volleyball Council and unanimously approved by the FIVB Board of Administration during its meeting held in March 2022.[2][3]

Host selection

edit

On 8 November 2023, FIVB opened the bidding process for member associations whose countries were interested in hosting the Girls' and Boys' U17 World Championships planned to take place between 1 and 31 August 2024.[4] The expression of interest of the member associations had to be submitted to FIVB no later than 18:00 CET (UTC+1) on 8 December 2023.[5]

FIVB announced the hosts for both Girls' and Boys' U17 World Championships on 28 February 2024, with Peru being selected to host the inaugural edition of the Girls' U17 World Championship.[1] Peru had previously hosted three FIVB Age Group World Championships: the Girls' U18 World Championship in 2015 and the Women's U20 World Championship in 1989 and 2011.[6]

On 5 April 2024, Peruvian Volleyball Federation President Gino Vegas confirmed Lima as the host city,[8] with Coliseo Eduardo Dibós, in San Borja District, and Polideportivo Villa El Salvador [es], in Villa El Salvador district, as venues of the competition.[9][10]

Qualification

edit

The qualification process was announced on 28 March 2023 with a total of 16 national teams to qualify for the final tournament.[11] In addition to Peru who qualified automatically as the host, 15 other teams qualified through five separate continental championships which were required to be held by 31 December 2023 at the latest.[5]

The originally slot allocation was setted as follow:[5]

  • AVC (Asia & Oceania): 3
  • CAVB (Africa): 3
  • CEV (Europe): 3
  • CSV (South America): 3
  • NORCECA (North, Central America and Caribbean): 3
  • Host: 1

However, the African Volleyball Confederation saw its quota reduced from 3 to 1 because its qualifying tournament only fielded three teams, instead of the minimum 4 teams required.[12] FIVB decided to award these two places to the best fourth-place national teams from the remaining continental qualifiers, based on the Girls' U19 FIVB World Ranking: Thailand (ranked 5) and Dominican Republic (ranked 13).[1]

Pools composition

edit

The draw for the pools composition was held on 1 May 2024, 14:30 (UTC±0), at the FIVB headquarters in Lausanne, Switzerland.[14] The 16 teams were split into four pools of six. The hosts Peru and the top three teams of the Girls' U19 FIVB World Ranking in force at that time were seeded in the first positions of each pool in alphabetical order from pool A to pool D. FIVB reserved the right to seed the host team as head of pool A regardless of their position in the World Ranking. The remaining 16 teams were divided into three pots of four, according to their position in the same Girls' U19 FIVB World Ranking, in order to be drawn to complete the following three positions in each pool.[15]

Girls' U19 FIVB World Ranking of each team (as of 24 August 2023) are shown in brackets, except the hosts Peru who ranked 22nd.[16]

Seeded teams Teams to be drawn
Line 1 Pot 1 (line 2) Pot 2 (line 3) Pot 3 (line 4)
  •   Peru (Hosts, assigned to A1)
  •   Turkey (2), assigned to B1)
  •   Italy (3), assigned to C1
  •   Japan (4), assigned to D1

The draw procedure followed the serpentine system and was as follows:[15]

  • Teams from pot 3 were drawn first and were placed in line 4 of each pool starting from pool D to pool A.
  • Teams from pot 2 were then drawn and placed in line 3 of each pool starting from pool A to pool D.
  • Teams from pot 1 were drawn at the end and were placed in line 2 of each pool starting from pool D to pool A.

The pools composition after the draw was as follow:[17]
