The new silver body, accented with refined gold details, brings a more prestigious look and improved visibility under lights, cameras and on screen. It is designed to shine in the moments that matter most. It is a trophy reborn to match the relentless drive, fierce determination and world-class talent of the athletes who fight for it at the VNL.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe enhanced, new VNL Trophy reflects just how far the VNL has come since its debut in 2018. Every season, the VNL has grown in scale, impact and excitement, and this trophy represents that evolution. It is a prize worthy of the elite athletes who give everything on the court and the passionate fans who expect nothing less than the best,\u201d Stephanie Giardina, Chief Revenue Officer from Volleyball World, said.<\/p>\n<p>With the VNL Women\u2019s pools now wrapped up in Apeldoorn (Netherlands), Arlington (USA), and Chiba (Japan), attention shifts to the final week of the Men\u2019s preliminary round, which kicks off today in Gda\u0144sk (Poland), Ljubljana (Slovenia), and Chiba (Japan).<\/p>\n<p>Who will lift the enhanced new VNL Trophy for the first time in history?
