Personal Bolívar and PGE Skra Bełchatów became the sixth and seventh contestants in the World Club Championship, on December 11-17.

The Argentinian champions Bolívar earned the right to compete in the tournament as the champions of the best-ranked country in the FIVB’s Men’s national teams ranking list, not counting those countries whose representatives already qualified.
