1967 FIVB Women's Volleyball World Championship

FIVB Women's World Championship women World 1967 Tokyo 25–29 January 4 Nippon Budokan Japan 2 United States South Korea Peru 1962 1970 The 1967 FIVB Women's World Championship was the fifth edition of the tournament, organised by the world's governing body, the FIVB. It was held from 25 to 29 January 1967 at the Nippon Budokan in Tokyo, Japan. Background Since its inaugural edition in 1952, the women's and men's World Championships were hosted by the same country. The FIVB decided to split the tournaments, awarding men's and women's to different countries, for 1966 the men's was held in Czechoslovakia and the women's was planned to be held in Lima, Peru between 12 and 29 October. Lima withdrew as organizer and the tournament was delayed until a new host could be found. With Japan chosen as host (the first time the World Championships were played in Asia), the tournament went ahead in January 1967. Due to international political tensions caused by the Cold War, hosts Japan warned it would not display the flags nor have the national anthems of North Korea and East Germany played. Both teams together with the Eastern Bloc countries (Czechoslovakia, Hungary, Poland, Soviet Union) and China forfeited the tournament, leaving only four teams as participants.https://saidaderede.blogosfera.uol.com.br/2017/01/29/1967-o-mundial-de-volei-que-a-guerra-fria-encurtou/ 1967: o Mundial de Vôlei que a Guerra Fria encurtou Portuguese João Batista Junior 29 January 2017 UOL 17 October 2017http://www.fivb.org/TheGame/TheGame_WorldChampionships.htm World Championships - FIVB WOMEN'S WORLD CHAMPIONSHIPS FINALS - Japan 1967 FIVB 17 October 2017 Teams JPN 1870 PER KOR 1949 USA Squads Source:http://www.todor66.com/volleyball/World/Women_1967.html Women Volleyball V World Championship 1967 Tokyo todor66.com 16 October 2017 Venue Single pool Japan Host city in Japan center 300 35.683333 139.683333 bottom Tokyo Tokyo Nippon Budokan Capacity: 14,000 150px Source: Format The tournament was played in a single round-robin format, all four participant teams in a single pool and played each other once.
