FIVB Volleyball Boys' U19 World Championship

The 2023 FIVB Volleyball Boys' U19 World Championship was the 18th edition of the FIVB Volleyball Boys' U19 World Championship, the biennial international youth volleyball championship contested by the men's national teams under the age of 19 of the members associations of the Fédération Internationale de Volleyball (FIVB), the sport's global governing body. It was held in San Juan, Argentina from 2 to 13 August 2023.[1]

Pools composition[edit]

The draw for the pools composition was held on 31 March 2023 at the FIVB headquarters in Lausanne, Switzerland.[8] The 20 teams were split into four pools of five. The hosts Argentina and the top seven teams of the Boys' U19 FIVB World Ranking in force at that time (as of 24 October 2022) were seeded in the first two positions of each pool following the serpentine system. FIVB reserved the right to seed the host team as head of pool A regardless of their position in the World Ranking. The remaining 12 teams were divided into three pots of four, according to their position in the same Boys' U19 FIVB World Ranking, in order to be drawn to complete the following three positions in each pool.[9]

Boys' U19 FIVB World Ranking of each team as of 24 October 2022 are shown in brackets, except the hosts Argentina who ranked 4th.[10]

Seeded teams Teams to be drawn
Line 1 Line 2 Pot 1 (line 3) Pot 2 (line 4) Pot 3 (line 5)

The draw procedure also followed the serpentine system and was as follows:[9]

  • Teams from pot 1 were drawn first and were placed in line 3 of each pool starting from pool A to pool D.
  • Teams from pot 2 were then drawn and placed in line 4 of each pool starting from pool D to pool A.
  • Teams from pot 3 were drawn at the end and were placed in line 5 of each pool starting from pool A to pool D.

The pools composition after the draw was as follow:[11]
