Development of a more strategic approach to the AC priorities can also improve synergies with broader FIVB focus areas as well as support prioritisation of the work of the AC.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Bawden highlighted ongoing efforts to strengthen support for players as they transition beyond sport.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe FIVB will run the first volleyball and beach volleyball post-career program in 2025, called Beyond the Court. This is an important step to supporting the professional development of volleyball players,\u201d she said. \u201cWe can also consider increasing the visibility of resources available to athletes via the FIVB website. IOC Career+ has a great range of educational and professional development resources, and some not just for Olympians, but all athletes, so we can help direct athletes to these.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><i><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-142119\" src=\"https:\/\/asianvolleyball.net\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/e-300x169.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"169\" srcset=\"https:\/\/asianvolleyball.net\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/e-300x169.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/asianvolleyball.net\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/e-1024x576.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/asianvolleyball.net\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/e-768x432.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/asianvolleyball.net\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/e-580x326.jpeg 580w, https:\/\/asianvolleyball.net\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/e-860x484.jpeg 860w, https:\/\/asianvolleyball.net\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/e-1160x652.jpeg 1160w, https:\/\/asianvolleyball.net\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/e-500x281.jpeg 500w, https:\/\/asianvolleyball.net\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/e-800x450.jpeg 800w, https:\/\/asianvolleyball.net\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/e-1280x720.jpeg 1280w, https:\/\/asianvolleyball.net\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/e.jpeg 1366w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/i><\/p>\n<p><i>Bawden with IOC President Kirsty Coventry at the International Athletes\u2019 Forum in Lausanne.<\/i><\/p>\n<p>She noted that several areas require continued attention for the volleyball and beach volleyball community.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIn today\u2019s world, many players need mental health and wellbeing support to withstand the pressures of being an elite athlete.
