2025 FIVB Women's World Championship

  • imo in WCH no reserve players are allowed , not like in VNL. you can only make medical substitution if the medical supervisor agree with it

    I still doubt whether reserve players are allowed.


    In 2022 WCH, Cai Bin (Chinese NT) is ready for "14+2". Just in the end, Yu Jia-rui (S) and Ni Fei-fan (L) were out.


    S - Diao Lin-yu, Ding Xia

    OP - Gong Xiang-yu, Chen Pei-yan

    OH - Li Ying-ying, Wang Yun-lu, Jin Ye, Wang Yi-zhu (also OP)

    MB - Yuan Xin-yue, Wang Yuan-yuan, Gao Yi, Yang Han-yu

    L - Wang Meng-jie, Wang Wei-yi


    Therefore, this year, Chinese NT is still with 16 players now. I don't know whether reserve players are allowed in 2025 WCH.


    S - Zhang Zi-xuan, Yin Xiao-lan, Zou Jia-qi

    OP - Gong Xiang-yu, Yang Shu-ming, Fan Bo-ning

    OH - Wu Meng-jie, Zhuang Yu-shan, Dong Yu-han, Tang Xin (also OP)

    MB - Wang Yuan-yuan, Chen Hou-yu, Wang Ao-qian, Wan Zi-yue

    L - Wang Meng-jie, Ni Fei-fan

    My favourite roster of Chinese (in 2022)
    male NT:
    S - Yu Yao-chen, Chen Lei-yang
    OP - Jiang Chuan, Dai Qing-yao
    OH - Zhang Jing-yin, Yu Yuan-tai, Liu Li-bin, Fu Hou-wen
    MB - Zhang Zhe-jia, Peng Shi-kun, Li Yong-zhen, Jiang Zhen-yang
    L - Yang Yi-ming, Yang Tian-yuan


    female NT:

    6.

    Once replacement has been registered, the replaced player will not be permitted to participate in the matches for the rest of the Event.

  • I heard most of their best players were leaving because the Federation is out of money. They had nightmare travels around the world in the last years.


    Rizola already left to take over Perù. So I don’t see any of them risking injuries for NT when they can have a good club career.

    Bummer, they had interesting players but it is understandable if the Federation isn't in a good shape, why would they take the risk. Will ana Karina play in wch?

  • Bianca Farriol tore her ACL and meniscus and is out of the tournament.


    someone protect the south americans.

    unfortunately there are also other complications including her hips according to FEVA. hers might be the worst because it really piled up on her physically. it really shouldn't have happened and i'm not sure why their physicians weren't able to detect signs early on poor farriol

  • Pool A: 1. Thailand, 2. Netherlands,

    B: Italy, Belgium

    C: Brazil, France

    D: US (2nd team), Czech Republic (Argentina)

    E: Turkey, Canada

    F: China, Dominican Republic (will struggle)

    G: Poland, Germany

    H: Serbia, Japan

  • Thailand is quite bad this season, Sweden could make a surprise win there if swedish outsides would have a good day. I think Netherlands would also win against thailand

  • I read via Pass Volley's post that there's war brewing in Thailand and that FIVB is already monitoring it closely. Those who are familiar with their situation how bad is it? Will Thailand still be able to host?

    in case it doesn't pull through in thailand they should just have it in poland or serbia again

  • Only two teams in every Pool....? :Was:
