  • Quoted from "haisheng226"
    I'm happen to be in Japan in the first week of September, where can I purchase tickets to the game?


    Sorry I only know of this link and it's in Japanese only

    Also, you can buy it in English here. Only with General Admission Tickets though.
    English site


    If you go to Lawson, a competitor to 7-Eleven, they sell tickets in their store through a service called Lawson Ticket (Low-Chike).


    Print out this page and take it with you to the store for help. Joshi for women (shown first), Danshi for men (then men's tournament second) on the page
    Lawson World Cup Ticket page


    Make sure you know which date of the games that you want to attend.


    First match starts at 12:00 and your ticket is good for all three matches.


    If you are in Tokyo, they are playing at the Yoyogi National Stadium by Harajuku station. Japan will be playing in the final game at 19:00.


    There are 3 ticket levels, Arena Reserved = 10,000 yen, Stand Reserved = 6,800 yen and General Admission = 3,000 yen


    Tickets for the August 22 (Sat) and 23 (Sun) are sold out. August 24 (Mon) have General Admission only. August 26 (Wed) have some Stand Reserved and General Admission. August 27 (Thurs) has more Stand Reserved and General Admission available.

    World Cup is the first qualifying tournament for the Olympics. In the past the tournament was in late October and November. FIVB is trying to work within club schedules this time.

  • No molnar :D Surprised to see Bjelica in the roster over Drpa who has been playing quite well through all summer...

    I don't agree. Although Bjelica has had quite a disappointing season with Chemik, Drpa was no way near Team A... We saw nothing from Bjelica this summer, so she might be in better shape than Marta..

    No, Bjelica has been injuried and recovering, that's why I wrote it's a surprise she's picked and Drpa couldn't make the cut. To be quite honest I haven't seen any convincing performance of Bjelica apart from her senior NT debut in WC 2011. Boskovic will be starter, so I don't think it's such a big deal who's her back-up anyway.

  • Does Serbia have no other liberos coming up? It has been the same two for many years, and they really need to upgrade.
