For the 19th edition of the Club World Championships, the host club is Osasco São Cristóvão Saúde, featuring established players such as Italian outside hitter Anastasia Guerra, Polish opposite Magda Stysiak and Italian setter Marta Bechis, who won the most recent Club World Championship with Savino Del Bene Scandicci.
Eight of the season’s strongest clubs will compete across six days of action, with 16 matches spanning the pool phase, semi-finals and medal matches. Beyond competing for the title, the championship celebrates the passion, history and identity that make club volleyball unique, bringing together the rivalries, communities and traditions that define the sport around the world.
The tournament will see some of volleyball’s biggest international stars represent their clubs on the global stage, competing not only for a world title but for the honour of their teams, fans and communities.
São Paulo provides an ideal setting for this global showcase. Renowned for its rich volleyball heritage and passionate sporting culture, the city has previously staged many of the sport’s premier international events, including the FIVB Volleyball World Championships, FIVB Volleyball World League, FIVB Volleyball World Grand Prix and South American Championships.
As one of the world’s leading centres for culture, business, technology, entertainment and sport, São Paulo is home to around 12 million people and offers a vibrant backdrop for athletes and fans from across the globe.
The return of the FIVB Volleyball Women’s Club World Championship to São Paulo reflects the continued growth and global ambition of club volleyball, further elevating the sport, its athletes and the passionate fan communities that make club competition so special.
