The 2017 FIVB Volleyball World League was the 28th edition of the annual men's international volleyball tournament played by 36 teams between 2 June and 8 July.[1] The Group 1 Final Round was held in Curitiba, Brazil.[2]
In front of a crowd of 23,149 fans, France lifted the FIVB Volleyball World League trophy for the second time in their history, prevailing in an epic battle over hosts Brazil 3–2.[3] This marked the fifth time in the last seven editions that Brazil reached the final without successfully winning the gold medal. Canada wrapped up their best ever World League campaign by seizing the bronze medal (their first medal at an international FIVB event) after coming from behind for a 3–1 win over the United States.[4] Earvin N'Gapeth was elected the Most Valuable Player for the second time, after also being the MVP in 2015.[5][6]
Slovenia defeated Japan in the Group 2 finals in Gold Coast, Australia to achieve their second straight group title since their debut last year (the team had previously won Group 3 in 2016).[7][8]
Moreover, Estonia finished atop Group 3 in their first ever World League participation after a convincing 3–0 win over Spain in the final match in León, Mexico.[9]
On 11 June 2017, the new one-set-score world record for national teams was established in the Group 3 intercontinental round match between Qatar and Venezuela. They spent 49 minutes in a 45–43 third set that was won by Qatar. The previous highest set score was 44–42, which had happened twice (in the 1999 FIVB Volleyball World League match between Canada and Brazil, and in the 2016 World Olympic Qualifying Tournament match between France and Australia).[10]
