50 years of European Volleyball
This year's championship coincides with the celebrations of the 50th anniversary of the European Volleyball Federation (CEV) and is therefore something very special. The federation was founded in 1973. The first European Women's Volleyball Championship took place in 1949 - and the Soviet Union/Russia is the most successful team in the history of this competition with 19 titles.
