Volleyball at the 2024 Summer Olympics – Men's qualification

Source: Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.

women

The men's qualification for the Olympic volleyball tournament will occur between September 2023 and June 2024, allocating twelve teams for the final tournament. As the host nation and the reigning Olympic champions, France reserves a direct spot each for the men's team.[2]

The remainder of the twelve-team field must endure a dual qualification pathway to secure the quota places for Paris 2024. First, the winners and runners-up from each of the three Olympic qualification tournaments will qualify directly for the Games. Second, the last five berths will be attributed to the eligible NOCs based on the FIVB world rankings by June 2024, abiding by the universality principle, that is, prioritizing those from the continents without a qualified team yet in the Paris 2024 tournament.[2][3]
