A quick breakdown of the 24 spots: - 14 will come to the teams with the most points accumulated from December of 2026 through June of 2028, using their best 8 finishes. - 5 will go to the winners of the 2026 Continental Championships - 3 will go to the winners of the new Q Series tournaments, all to be played in the summer of 2028 - 1 will go to the winner of the 2027 World Championships in the Netherlands - 1 will be a wild card from USA Volleyball, which will most likely be an Olympic trial Fascinating races to follow, outside of USA Volleyball, include: - How will the new-look German men fare, with Clemens Wickler partnering with Lukas Pfretzschner and Nils Ehlers picking up Lui Wust - The Brazilian women could reasonably have three teams in the top 10 in the world. Will it be Ana Patricia and Duda making a resurgence, or will Carol and Rebecca qualify again? - The Swiss women are deep again. Will it be Leona Kernen and Joana Mader, Nina Brunner and Tanja Huberli, or Anouk Verge-Depre and Zoe Verge-Depre? - Who will be the surprise team to qualify for LA 2028? There’s always one.
