Returning stars and a mad scramble for the final few Paris 2024 Olympics spots stand to make this a VNL to remember, and while the ultimate goal is silverware, every single game of the preliminary phase of the competition will have a significant bearing. Here’s where to watch 2024 Volleyball Nations League live streams online for free – from anywhere.
The Volleyball Nations League encompasses both the women’s and men’s season’s, with the women’s event running from Tuesday, May 14 to Sunday, June 23, and the men’s event starting and finishing a week later, running from Tuesday, May 21 to Sunday, June 30.
In the women’s competition, four places at Paris 2024 are up for grabs, with italy and China amongst the teams that are yet to qualify. Spurred on by MVP Paola Egonu, Italy won the Nations League two years ago, but Egonu was dropped last year and has been brought back into the fold by new coach Julio Velasco. In a similar vein, China’s hopes have been boosted by the long awaited return of Zhu Ting, following a succession of wrist issues.
The men’s tournament goes one better, with five Olympic spots yet to be filled. And amongst the teams looking to punch their ticket are reigning world champions Italy, South American top dogs Argentina, and rising power Slovenia.
