Canadian women's volleyball team begins pivotal season with Olympics in sight

29.05.2023 - 13:23 cbc.ca

Riding a wave of momentum following their historic second-round finish at the world championship last season, the Canadian women's volleyball team begins its most pivotal season to date with the Volleyball Nations League (VNL).

It's the start of Olympic qualifying season and Canada wants to use the 16-team VNL competition as a springboard to Paris 2024.

Head coach Shannon Winzer announced her 14-player roster last Friday ahead of the first leg of competition in Antalya, Turkey.

The first stop begins with Canada facing Poland (Tuesday, 1 p.m. CBCSports.ca), followed by matches against Thailand, Korea, and Serbia before the team moves on to the second and third legs of the competition in Hong Kong and Bangkok.
