Updates to the Club World Championships 2021 qualification process
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic and the cancellation of the FIVB Club World Championships 2020 and the 2021 CSV Men’s Club Championship, and since CSV was the only applicable Continental Confederation to conclude its Club Championship during the 2019-2020 season, and the clubs that won that competition therefore did not have the opportunity to compete at the FIVB Club World Championship, the FIVB Board of Administration approved the change to the 2021 event’s qualification process following a request from the CSV.
