The 2022 FIVB Volleyball Men's World Championship will be the 20th staging of the FIVB Volleyball Men's World Championship, contested by the senior men's national teams of the members of the Fédération Internationale de Volleyball (FIVB), the sport's global governing body. The final tournament was originally planned to be held in Russia from 26 August to 11 September 2022. However, due to Russia's invasion of Ukraine starting on 24 February, Russia was stripped of organization rights.

Host selection

On 15 November 2018, at the FIVB Congress in Cancún, Mexico, FIVB initially announced that the tournament would be held in Russia.^[1] The tournament was to take place in ten cities (Moscow, Saint Petersburg, Kaliningrad, Yaroslavl, Kazan, Ufa, Yekaterinburg, Novosibirsk, Kemerovo, and Krasnoyarsk).^[2]^[3]

On 9 December 2019, the World Anti-Doping Agency initially handed Russia a four-year ban from all major sporting events, after RUSADA was found non-compliant for handing over manipulating lab data to investigators. The WADA ruling allowed athletes who were not involved in the doping or the coverup to compete, but prohibited the use of the Russian flag and anthem at major international sporting events.^[4] However, the Russia national team could still enter qualification, as the ban only applies to the final tournament to decide the world champions. The ruling was appealed to the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS),^[5] which ruled against RUSADA on 17 December 2020, but reduced the ban from four to two years, expiring on 16 December 2022.^[6] The CAS ruling also allowed the name "Russia" to be displayed on uniforms, as well as the display of Russian colors, if the words "Neutral Athlete" or "Neutral Team" had equal prominence. As Russia already qualified, its players were unable to use their country's name alone, flag or anthem at the championship, as a result of the two-year ban from world championships in any sport. Russia was scheduled to compete as the Volleyball Federation of Russia (VFR).^[6]^[7]

Because of the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine, the Netherlands threatened to boycott the Championship if Russia were to remain the host. This was confirmed by the Dutch volleyball association on 28 February 2022.^[8]^[9] Russia was later stripped of its hosting rights on 1 March 2022 due to its invasion.^[10]

An accelerated bidding process was opened to determine the new host countries for the tournament. The pool phase could be hosted by multiple countries, up to two hosts in the Round of 16 and quarterfinals, and a single host for the semifinals and final.^[11]

Qualification

The current world champions Poland automatically qualified for the competition. The top two teams from each of the 2021 Continental Championships secured qualification. The final 12 places were given to top 12 teams as per FIVB World Ranking who have not yet qualified.^[12]

In the first round, the 24 teams will be spread across six pools of four teams playing in a single round-robin format. The top two teams in each pool and the top four of the third placed teams will qualify for the final round.^[11]

Final round

The qualified teams from preliminary round will compete in the knock-out stage. The winners in round of sixteen will advance to quarterfinals, semifinals. The semifinals winners will advance to compete for the World Championship title. The losers will face each other in the 3rd place match.

All teams not seeded were drawn to take other available positions in the remaining lines, following the World Ranking.^[15] The draw was held at Irina Viner-Usmanova Gymnastics Palace, Moscow, Russia on 30 September 2021.^[16] Rankings are shown in brackets except the hosts who ranked 3rd.

Pool standing procedure

Total number of victories (matches won, matches lost)
In the event of a tie, the following first tiebreaker will apply: The teams will be ranked by the most point gained per match as follows:
- Match won 3–0 or 3–1: 3 points for the winner, 0 points for the loser
- Match won 3–2: 2 points for the winner, 1 point for the loser
- Match forfeited: 3 points for the winner, 0 points (0–25, 0–25, 0–25) for the loser
If teams are still tied after examining the number of victories and points gained, then the FIVB will examine the results in order to break the tie in the following order:
- Set quotient: if two or more teams are tied on the number of points gained, they will be ranked by the quotient resulting from the division of the number of all set won by the number of all sets lost.
- Points quotient: if the tie persists based on the set quotient, the teams will be ranked by the quotient resulting from the division of all points scored by the total of points lost during all sets.
- If the tie persists based on the point quotient, the tie will be broken based on the team that won the match of the Round Robin Phase between the tied teams. When the tie in point quotient is between three or more teams, these teams ranked taking into consideration only the matches involving the teams in question.
