The USA Womens team took the Volleyball Nations League by storm when the competition was launched in 2018. After winning gold in Nanjing, China at the Finals of the first edition, coach Karch Kiraly’s team also claimed victory at the next two tournaments in 2019 and 2021. That amazing winning streak was interrupted in 2022, when USA lost to Serbia in the quarterfinals. In 2023 at College Park in Arlington, USA fought hard to make it to the VNL finals where they experienced a loss to Poland to come in 4th overall, but the reigning Olympic champions are sure to be among the favorites for 2024.

Volleyball World will provide fans, athletes, partners, and other sport afficionados with the ultimate volleyball experience. It will be a memorable experience for all attendees whether new to the sport or a volleyball pro.
