Canadian women's team spiked by host Brazil in Volleyball Nations League opener

Canada opened Volleyball Nations League play on Tuesday night with a four-set loss to host Brazil.

With the women's team still in contention to qualify for Paris 2024, Canadian coach Shannon Winzer stressed the importance of VNL in the big picture.

"This year's VNL has the additional importance of achieving our goal of qualifying for Paris 2024," said Winzer.

"Earning a spot in the Olympic tournament requires the time, effort and commitment of more than just the 14 athletes selected to [our] roster, it's the effort of the athletes and staff of the program as whole."

On Tuesday, Canada led in attacks 55-53, and made less unforced errors (20-27), but Brazil dominated on the blocks (15-5).
