WEVCA was founded with the ambition to build a European women’s volleyball ecosystem that is sustainable, successful and fully integrated into the global sporting landscape.
The Association’s main objectives are:
- Institutional dialogue: to act as an official counterpart with CEV (Confédération Européenne de Volleyball), FIVB (Fédération Internationale de Volleyball) and other authorities, contributing to the definition of shared strategies and sustainable calendars.
- Enhancement of the club system: promoting the key role of clubs in the training of female athletes, the development of fan bases and the production of high-level sports content.
- Commercial development: working with institutions and partners to make women’s volleyball an increasingly attractive product for investors, sponsors and broadcasters, following successful models already seen in football and basketball.
- Women’s Empowerment in Sport: strengthen women’s volleyball as a platform for expression and growth for women in sport, promoting leadership, visibility and equal opportunities.
- Innovation and sustainability: develop joint projects aimed at improving the technical, organisational and environmental standards of the female volleyball, with a focus on digitisation, inclusiveness and social impact.
The 15 member clubs represent the technical and organisational elite of European women’s volleyball. These clubs attract millions of fans across the continent, support some of the best athletes on the international scene, and contribute greatly to the success of their respective national teams.
The member clubs are divided by country as follows:
- Turkey – 5 clubs
- Italy – 3 clubs
- Poland – 2 clubs
