Antonio Rizola proposes taking the South American Volleyball Cup to a province in 2027: “My suggestion is that it not be in Lima”

Antonio Rizola, coach of the Peruvian national volleyball team, has formally proposed that the 2027 South American Volleyball Championship be hosted in a Peruvian province rather than in the capital city of Lima. This suggestion comes as Peru prepares to host the tournament for the second consecutive year.

The proposal aims to decentralize the sporting event, shifting the venue away from Lima to increase regional visibility for the championship. The decision for the 2027 host location remains pending as organizers plan for the upcoming edition of the tournament.
