The CEV didn’t officialize the names of the participants nor the seeding pots for the men’s and women’s 2021 Champions League, but only the calendar and ways of allocating spots according to the Ranking.

If these well-known volleyball sites would show a genuine interest in more than a handful of leagues, they would know that Brno and Kuusamo won’t participate. It’s Olomouc and Salo for CZE and FIN… and everyone just copies and paste instead of doing own research… sad.
