FIVB LEADERSHIP MEETS IOC TO SHARE AMBITIOUS VISION FOR GLOBAL VOLLEYBALL MOVEMENT

New leadership immediately sets to work on writing bright new chapter for the sport

The new FIVB leadership met on Tuesday with the International Olympic Committee (IOC) President to share their bold vision for empowering the Global Volleyball Movement.  

FIVB President Fabio Azevedo and Secretary General Hugh McCutcheon visited the Olympic House, where they met IOC President Thomas Bach and Director General Christophe de Kepper.  

The discussions focused on the FIVB’s Strategic Vision 2024-2032, which sets an ambitious roadmap for the future of volleyball.  

During the visit, Fabio Azevedo outlined the FIVB’s goal to make the sport more accessible by empowering National Federations, Zonal Associations, Continental Confederations and, therefore, doubling volleyball’s 800-million-strong global fanbase to 1.6 billion within the next eight years. This transformative vision is centred around the key pillars of professionalism, integration, empowerment and mass participation. 

Through the motto “Together As One” – the FIVB leadership reaffirmed its commitment to not only ensuring a united and empowered Global Volleyball Movement, but also its commitment to working hand-in-hand with the IOC and wider Olympic Movement.
