PER vs. VEN
Venezuelan VF claimed that Venezuela Women’s NT secured quota for the World Grand Prix by defeating Peru 3-1 at the 2016 Pan American Cup in Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic, in the match for 7-10th place. Venezuela NT finished eighth at the tournament. Thus, Venezuelan VF emphasized that Women’s NT had to be placed in Group 3 at the draw for the World Grand Prix.
Because it did not receive any explanation from the FIVB on this matter, Venezuelan VF issued a statement and sent a letter of protest to the FIVB.
