Volleyball competition
The 2023 Women's European Volleyball Championship was the 33rd edition of the Women's European Volleyball Championship, organised by Europe's governing volleyball body, the Confédération Européenne de Volleyball. For the third consecutive time, it was held in four countries: Belgium, Estonia, Germany and Italy.[1][2] The top three teams of the tournament qualified for the 2025 FIVB Volleyball Women's World Championship as the CEV representative, except Serbia who had already qualified as the defending world champions.
Qualification
Pools composition
The drawing of lots was combined with a seeding of National Federations and performed as follows:
- The four organizers were seeded in Preliminary pools. Belgium in Pool A, Italy in Pool B, Germany in Pool C and Estonia in Pool D.
- The finalists from the previous edition were drawn in different Preliminary pools, meaning that Italy could not be paired with Serbia.
- The organizers could select one team to join their pools, as a result, Slovenia joined Belgium in Pool A, Romania joined Italy in Pool B, Azerbaijan joined Germany in Pool C and Finland joined Estonia in Pool D.
- According to the CEV National Team ranking list, the 16 remaining teams were seeded by descending order in a number of cups that equals the number of Preliminary pools.
- Draw
The drawing of lots was held on 16 November 2022 in Naples, Italy.[3]
