Aleksandar Boričić to lead European Volleyball family for another four years
News from the CEV
Vienna, Austria, October 16, 2020. Aleksandar Boričić will be leading the European Volleyball family for another term of four years after receiving the majority of the votes cast by the delegates attending the XLI CEV General Assembly held today in Vienna. The incumbent CEV President received 36 votes, with the other candidate standing for the top position, Hanno Pevkur of Estonia, supported by 19 National Federations instead.
After assuming the leadership of the CEV back in 2015, Mr Boričić and his team have re-shaped the organisation and its perception, while fostering a strong sense of solidarity and cohesion among all members of the European Volleyball family. Volleyball in Europe has gone from strength to strength over the course of the last five years, especially through the delivery of major events that have accounted for an unforgettable experience for players and fans alike. This transformational journey has seen unprecedented investments into the sport that have helped grow the game at the grassroots level and more recently, supported all stakeholders in dealing with the many challenges brought by the coronavirus pandemic.
