Format edit

In a change of format compared to the previous 9 editions of the Olympic Games, this tournament will feature 3 groups with 4 teams each during the preliminary round (between 1972 Summer Olympics to 2020 Summer Olympics the teams were placed in two groups). At this round, the teams will compete in a single round-robin format. The two highest ranked teams in each pool and the best two third-placed teams advanced to the knockout stage (quarterfinals).

The knockout stage will follow the single-elimination format. The match-ups will determine by teams combined ranking system, #1 vs #8 (QF1), #2 vs #7 (QF2), #3 vs #6 (QF3), #4 vs #5 (QF4). The winners will advance to quarterfinals, QF1 vs QF4, QF3 vs QF2. The losers will compete for bronze medals and the winners will compete for gold medals [3]

Pools composition edit

The twelve qualified teams will be seeded according to their position in the FIVB World Ranking as of 17 June 2024. As the host team, France is seeded 1st and will be placed in the top position of Pool A. The two top ranked teams seeded 2nd and 3rd will be placed at the top of Pools B and C respectively. The remaining nine teams will be distributed across three bowls of three teams each based on their position in the World Ranking and drawn for their seed line by line applying the serpentine system.[2]
