international volleyball organizations

International volleyball organizations oversee the sport worldwide, setting rules, organizing competitions, and promoting development. The main entity, the Fédération Internationale de Volleyball (FIVB), governs the sport globally, coordinating major events like the World Championships and Olympics. Continental confederations, such as CEV (Europe), NORCECA (North America), and AVC (Asia), manage regional competitions and development. These organizations ensure standardized rules, fair play, and growth of volleyball at all levels. They work together to elevate the sport’s quality, popularity, and integrity worldwide, providing structure for national federations and fostering international cooperation among players, coaches, and fans.
