Lima, Peru – FIVB President Dr. Ary S. Graça F° was applauded from the stage following his ground-breaking presentation to the CSV Congress, which was held in Lima, Peru on Saturday.

President Graça greeted the participants of the Congress by praising the good job that the South American Confederation has done so far, however, he stressed “it was not enough and one must simply continue working hard”.

He then made the inaugural presentation of the FIVB Nine Goals project, which reflected on the three years of evolution since his election in 2012 and then nine important goals which the FIVB is aiming to achieve in the near future.


“The FIVB and its members have accomplished some outstanding achievements over the past three years,” Dr. Graça told the CSV Congress. “The FIVB has provided many opportunities over the past three years - the number of participating teams in international volleyball tournaments have increased, over 70% of the 221 member federations are now participating in the beach volleyball Olympic qualification process – there have been many exciting new developments such as the Challenge System, LED net and the Trophy moment, as well as innovations seen at the three past World Championships – Poland (world record opening ceremony) and Italy (sport presentation) for volleyball, and the Netherlands (four cities for the first time and world record amateur beach volleyball tournament) for beach volleyball – which has provided a superb launch pad to go onto a superb Rio 2016 Olympic Games and Tokyo 2020 Games.

“However we must not stop and we must continue to innovate and increase volleyball’s relevance to the international sporting community. Entertainment plays a key part and that is why the FIVB is focused on improving the volleyball spectacle at its major events and will also be launching a new campaign soon called Volleyball Your Way, which will provide greater access to people, fans and players to play our sport and to have fun with volleyball all around the world.”

The next FIVB Presidential election will take place at the 2016 FIVB Congress, which will be held in Buenos Aires, Argentina in September and acknowledging the outstanding work that has been achieved at the FIVB over the past three years and the exciting future ahead, the CSV Congress unanimously by acclamation supported President Graça for another term as FIVB President.

President Graça will continue to visit the other Confederation Congresses, which will take place as per the following:
CEV Congress, Sofia, Bulgaria – October 16-17
NORCECA Congress, Punta Cana, Dominican Republic - October 31 – November 1
CAVB Congress, Algiers, Algeria - December 3-4
AVC General Assembly, Riyadh, Saudi Arabia – November 17-18
