2024 Boys' U17 World Championship
First

The 2024 FIVB Volleyball Boys' U17 World Championship was the inaugural edition of the FIVB Volleyball Boys' U17 World Championship, the biennial international youth volleyball championship contested by the men's national teams under the age of 17 of the members associations of the Fédération Internationale de Volleyball (FIVB), the sport's global governing body. The tournament took place in Sofia, Bulgaria from 24 to 31 August 2024.[1]

The FIVB U17 World Championship for both genders was proposed by the FIVB Volleyball Council and unanimously approved by the FIVB Board of Administration during its meeting held in March 2022.[2][3]

On 8 November 2023, FIVB opened the bidding process for member associations whose countries were interested in hosting the Girls' and Boys' U17 World Championships planned to take place between 1 and 31 August 2024.[4] The expression of interest of the member associations had to be submitted to FIVB no later than 18:00 CET (UTC+1) on 8 December 2023.[5]

Bulgarian Volleyball Federation announced its bid in October 2023.[6]

FIVB announced the hosts for both Girls' and Boys' U17 World Championships on 28 February 2024, with Bulgaria being selected to host the inaugural edition of the Boys' U17 World Championship.[1][7] This will be the second FIVB age-group world championship hosted by Bulgaria after the 2021 FIVB Men's U21 World Championship which was co-hosted with Italy. Bulgaria also hosted both the Men's and Women's FIVB World Championships in 1970 and most recently the 2018 FIVB Men's World Championship (also co-hosted with Italy).[8]

Venues

Matches will take place at Levski Sofia Sports Hall and Hristo Botev Hall, both located in Sofia, the capital of Bulgaria.[9] Levski Sofia Sports Hall is owned by the Levski Sofia sports club and is situated in southern Sofia. Hristo Botev is a multifunctional hall located in the Studentski grad district

Pools composition

The draw for the pools composition was held on 1 May 2024, 14:30 (UTC±0), at the FIVB headquarters in Lausanne, Switzerland.[11] The 16 teams were split into four pools of six. The hosts Bulgaria and the top three teams of the Boys' U19 FIVB World Ranking in force at that time were seeded in the first positions of each pool in alphabetical order from pool A to pool D. FIVB reserved the right to seed the host team as head of pool A regardless of their position in the World Ranking. The remaining 16 teams were divided into three pots of four, according to their position in the same Boys' U19 FIVB World Ranking, in order to be drawn to complete the following three positions in each pool.[12]

Boys' U19 FIVB World Ranking of each team (as of 24 August 2023) are shown in brackets, except the hosts Bulgaria who ranked 5th.[13]

Seeded teams Teams to be drawn
Line 1 Pot 1 (line 2) Pot 2 (line 3) Pot 3 (line 4)

  • Teams from pot 2 were then drawn and placed in line 3 of each pool starting from pool A to pool D.
