Lima 2019 Pan Am Games is ready for Women’s Volleyball

 

LIMA, Peru, August 5, 2019. – After a successful Men’s Volleyball tournament that concluded with Argentina´s second consecutive title, the XVIII Lima 2019 Pan American Games are ready for the Women’s Volleyball tournament to start next Wednesday at the Multipurpose Complex Callao.

 

The program begins with the preliminary inspections on Tuesday, on the eve of the event, followed by the general technical meeting. Brazil and Dominican Republic have confirmed to compete with their number one teams that two days challenged at the FIVB Olympic qualification event with the South Americans winning the Olympic berth.

 

Defending champion United States looks to win their second gold medal and second in the history of the event, with Brazil seeking to win their fifth Pan Am Games title while reaching their third consecutive gold medal match and Dominican Republic trying to put an end to a sixteen year drought of not advancing to the title match.

 

The competition starts with the three day pool-play preliminary round where the top two ranked teams advance into Saturday’s semifinals and the medal matches are scheduled on Sunday.
