A minimum of 6 players licenses must be registered inside the 04 form by thirty [30] days before the first match/tournament (as mentioned in the Official Regulations under Chapter 1: Competition Regulations Article 3.2). All remaining players must be registered before twenty [20] days prior to the start of the tournament. In both cases all players must be submitted through the CEV online database. No license fees will be charged. All licenses that are approved for the 1st Round, 2nd Round or 3rd Round remain valid until the end of the Championship Final Round. New player licenses can only be applied for before each Round’s respective deadlines. The number of the licenses (04 form) that can be applied for is unlimited, however only 22 players will be retained on the 05 form and then 12 players will be selected on the 05bis form. When adding players to the 04 form, all players must be first searched for inside the CEV online database and already existing players chosen from here. Only completely new players should be inserted as a ‘new’ player. In order to be able to close the 04 form, all fields must be completely filled in accordingly (i.e. Nationality, Federation of Origin, Citizenship, Clubs History and ‘Data for this season’). Information about each player’s current club is also now a mandatory field.

5. TEAM COMPOSITION

As already mentioned in the Official Regulations, Chapter 1: Competition Regulations, Article 2.3 (Item 5), participating Teams are permitted to have a team delegation composed of a maximum of 17 members:

- 12 players - 1 team manager (speaking fluent English) - 1 head coach - 1 assistant coach - 1 doctor (with IOC, FIVB or CEV accreditation) - 1 physiotherapist (with IOC, FIVB or CEV accreditation) - 1 journalist or NF’s press officer (with proof), compulsory only in the Final

Round

The team manager cannot be entrusted with any other function. A medical doctor or physiotherapist without accreditation can still be part of the team delegation.

Then only upon request of the CEV Technical Delegate, a non-accredited medical doctor or physiotherapist can intervene during the match in case of an injury.

1. 2ND AND 3rd ROUND TOURNAMENTS & SMALL COUNTRIES DIVISION FINAL ROUNDS

Having now completed the 1st Round of the 2014 CEV U19/U20 Volleyball European Championship, our attentions turn to the 2nd Round tournaments and the Small Country Division Final Rounds. Over the past 6 months we have been working to update the documentation that we provide to organisers of National team competitions. This process has concluded with the merging of the following two previously released documents:

- ‘Organisers of a 1st, 2nd or 3rd Round, League Round & (Pre) Qualification Tournaments in National Team Competitions’

- ‘Organisers of a Final Round of National Team Competitions’ The latest version of this document is now available for use and can be found and downloaded here:

http://ebook.cev.lu/competitions/nforganiser/ Following a decision at the recent CEV Board of Administration meeting, the person appointed to represent CEV at each tournament or match (previously called the CEV Technical Delegate) will from now on be known as CEV Supervisor at all CEV Competitions. The usual Control Committee structure remains for all Final Rounds. You are able to find the full set of Official Regulations here:

http://ebook.cev.lu/competitions/2014_U19w_U20m_ECH/regulations/ While the entire collection of Official Communications can be found here:

4. PLAYER LICENSES

The previously released text for ‘Player Licenses’ that was included in ‘Official Communication’ no. 3 is also valid for the 2nd Round, as well as for the SCD Final Round. In order to better present our sport, and ensure that all organisers are provided with all that they need from this point onwards all participating teams must comply with the following requirements and specifications regarding the photos needed to be uploaded into the 04 form. TEAM PHOTO:

An up-to-date team photo is mandatory and without such a National Federation is not able to close and sent the 04 form to the CEV. The team photograph must be 4000 x 2500 pixels in size and the resolution must be a minimum of 300dpi. Those in the photo should be dressed appropriately and wearing their official match uniform.

Re-released on:


Page 10 of 20

PLAYERS INDIVIDUAL PICTURES FOR LICENSES:

From now on, when a National Federation applies for a players licenses, they must also now upload the player’s photo in the 04 form. The photo must have been uploaded before the deadline of the 04 form. Without the presence of a suitable player photo, the player license will not be approved by CEV. The individual player photograph must be 1800 x 2800 pixels in size and the resolution must be a minimum of 300dpi. The player in the photo must be dressed appropriately and wearing their official match uniform. Individual photos must have a light background of only one colour. If possible, all individual player photographs should have the same setting (background, clothing etc…)

5. TEAM COMPOSITION

The previously released text for ‘Team Composition’ that was included in ‘Official Communication’ no. 3 is also valid for the 2nd Round, as well as for the SCD Final Round. In both SCD Final Rounds (U19/U20) a Team Journalist is not mandatory. Effective immediately in this competition, all participating teams are able to select team uniform numbers from 1 – 22. (For European Championships this was previously only 1 – 20). As a result of this change it has also now become compulsory for each National Federation to assign shirt numbers to each of the players that are selected on the CEV 05 form (deadlines for this are listed later in this communication). Following a recent decision of the CEV Board of Administration, Team Doctors are no longer required to attend their teams Preliminary Inquiries at all single matches and in all Qualification Rounds. (Note: They are still required at the Preliminary Inquiries of Final Rounds and all Qualification and Final Round Technical Meetings.)


There is a change regarding the Contribution Fee from previous editions so please pay particular attention.

2ND ROUND

1.6.1 – Each National Federation with a team participating in the 1st, 2nd or 3rd Round tournaments must contribute to the board and lodging costs of its delegation, by paying a unique fee to the organising National Federation for each member of its delegation (max. 17 [seventeen] persons). The amount of this unique fee (resulting from the number of days x 50,- EURO) is:

200.- EURO (tournament with 3 or 4 teams)

Re-released on:


Page 11 of 20

Should no National Federation apply, and the organizer is chosen by drawing of lots at the Calendar Conference, the Contribution Fee is increased by 50% for the other competing teams of that pool:

300.- EURO (tournament with 3 or 4 teams) The fixed amount must be paid upon arrival of the team and must be settled even if the duration of stay is shorter. (Taken from Chapter 7 – Financial Regulations)


Each visiting team’s National Federation shall contribute to the board and lodging costs of its delegation and therefore pay a contribution to the organising National Federation. The amount for this has been previously determined by the SCD General Assembly and approved by the CEV Board of Administration. (See Official Regulations: Small Countries Division Addenda, Article 3.3 http://ebook.cev.lu/competitions/2014_U19w_U20m_ECH/Regulations/#136/z)

7. 2ND ROUND: ADMINISTRATIVE DEADLINES



7.1.1 CEV CH-07-T FORM In case that no inspection visit is requested by ESOC, the organising National Federation must send the match programme, using the CEV CH–07-T Form (REQUEST FOR APPROVAL OF A MATCH PROGRAMME IN A TOURNAMENT). This form is available inside the CEV online database only for the organising National Federations under ‘Federation Area – Downloads’.

9. LIBERO NOMINATION PROCEDURE

The Board of Administration, during its last meeting in Luxembourg, has decided that for all CEV competitions, the final nomination of Libero(s) (if different from what was approved in the Preliminary Inquiry) must be communicated by the Team Manager / Head Coach to the Jury President / Supervisor at the latest 1 hour before the official start time of the match. Teams are also able to change any ‘regular’ player (from those approved in the Preliminary Inquiry) to be a Libero, and any previously nominated Libero to be a ‘regular’ player. Therefore teams are also able to change the quantity of Liberos that they have nominated within their team. (Note: in competitions or rounds where more than 12 players are permitted, and a team takes up this option, that team must nominate 2 Liberos out of the 13/14). After this deadline no more changes can be made. If no changes are requested before this deadline, the Libero(s) appointed during the Preliminary Inquiry will remain on the score sheet. If a modification of the Libero(s) is accepted, the Jury President/Supervisor immediately informs host broadcaster (TV), the organiser statistician and the scorer, who modifies the E-Scoresheet and prints the Final Team List, to be signed by the Captain and the Head Coach on their arrival at the court for the match. The Preliminary Inquiry will continue to be used to confirm the team composition, with information such as:

The number of players in the team

The eligibility of each player as well as their shirt number

The Libero(s) intended to be used in the match/tournament

Controlling of team uniforms which are presented by the teams according to the respective competition regulations

The implementation of this Board of Administration decision is compulsory across all CEV competitions from the 7th March 2014.

A Drawing of Lots was held on 09/05/2014 to determinate the organisers for the 3rd Round. In the U19 Women’s competition there were no applications received for Pool H, so a draw was conducted between all 4 teams to decide the organiser (SUI). For Pool I there was only one applicant (RUS), who will therefore organise. There were 3 applications for U20 Men Pool I, and none for Pool H. For this reason, first a draw was made to decide the organiser of Pool I (SRB). After this there was a draw between the remaining two applicants to move over to Pool H and organise (ITA). A final draw was made to decide which team from Pool H will move over to Pool I (GRE). The confirmed Pool composition is as follows: Women U19 Pool H in SWITZERLAND: CROATIA (CRO) 2nd in Pool C, SWITZERLAND (SUI) Best 3rd placed team from Round 2, THE NETHERLANDS (NED) 2nd in Pool G and GREECE (GRE) 2nd in Pool F. Women U19 Pool I in RUSSIA: POLAND (POL) 2nd in Pool A, GERMANY (GER) 2nd in Pool E, RUSSIA (RUS) 2nd in Pool D and FRANCE (FRA) 2nd in Pool B.
