Volleyball from the Mountains to the Beach
Volleyball from the Mountains to the Beach

Summary/Abstract: Volleyball is once again in the attention of world performance sports. The International Volleyball Federation (FIVB) has been working for some time on a project that aims to create a new sport, snow volleyball. This sport is currently developing worldwide and in 2018 it was a demonstration discipline at the Olympic Games held in PyeongChang, South Korea. In 2022 it should have been included at the Winter Olympics, but due to the pandemic this did not happen. In 2026 at the Winter Olympics it will be again publicized and presented as a demonstration discipline and an official statement of the representatives of the International Olympic Committee is pending. Therefore, volleyball could become the only sport present at both editions of the Olympic Games, both in summer and in winter, taking place in the hall (indoor), on the beach or on the snow (in the mountains).
