The matches in a round robin format and the finals will be hosted in one venue, preserving the original format of the VNL with the same number of matches per gender.<\/p>\n<p>Developed in close consultation with the event\u2019s main stakeholders, the concept was approved by the VNL Council during its latest videoconference meeting earlier today.<\/p>\n<p>Following the approval of the VNL Council, the FIVB will advance negotiations with interested organisers and aim to announce the host country or countries and the match schedule in February 2021.<\/p>\n<p>In light of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic and subsequent travel restrictions, the FIVB is committed to minimising international travel and creating a safe environment to protect the health and wellbeing of all participants.<\/p>\n<p>Related links of AVC<br \/>\nAVC Website: click www.asianvolleyball.net<br \/>\nAVC Facebook: click www.Facebook.com\/AsianVolleyballConfederation<br \/>\nAVC Twitter: click: https:\/\/twitter.com\/avcvolley<br \/>\nAVC Instagram: click: https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/avcvolley\/?hl=en<br \/>\nAVC Youtube: click: Asian Volleyball Confederation<br \/>\nAVC WeChat: Asian Volleyball Confederation<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The concept was approved by the VNL Council The Volleyball Nations League (VNL) 2021 will be held with a secure bubble concept to ensure the health of all athletes and&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":8,"featured_media":56866,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"ngg_post_thumbnail":0,"pgc_sgb_lightbox_settings":"","_vp_format_video_url":"","_vp_image_focal_point":[],"footnotes":""},"categories":[100,86],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-56865","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-slider","category-volleyball-news"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.3 -
