The Asian Championship Men's Volleyball Championship will start tomorrow 19/8 in Iran. This is the largest tournament for men's volleyball teams in Asia.
The two strongest male volleyball teams in Asia are Japan and Iran both bring their best squad. However, right after the opening time, there was a surprise.
Accordingly, the Mongolian male volleyball team withdrew from the tournament. This is quite unexpected information because this happens just before the tournament officially started.
At the Asian Championship Men's Volleyball Championship, Mongolia is in Group D with Taipei China and Bahrain. With Mongolia withdrawing, the other two teams will officially win tickets to continue even though they have not compete.
Thus, the Asian Championship Men's Volleyball Championship only has only 17 teams left. The race to the championship is considered to be a parallel race between Japan and Iran.
Along with the Mongolian Men's volleyball team, the women's team has just withdrew from the VTV Cup International Women's Volleyball Tournament on August 19 in Lao Cai.
With the withdrawal of Mongolian women's volleyball team, the VTV Cup 2023 competition format had to change the competition format. The teams will still compete in a circle but there will be a series of semi -finals and a day off in the middle of the tournament.
