History and competition system
Volleyball was recognized as an Olympic sport by the decision of the 53rd session of the International Olympic Committee, held in 1957 in Sofia. By this period, the International Volleyball Federation (FIVB) united 115 national federations. Nevertheless, volleyball was not included in the program of the 1960 Summer Olympics in Rome - it was too late to change the program and the competition calendar.
6 women's and 10 men's teams participated in the first Olympic volleyball tournament, later their number increased, which led to a change in the format of the Olympic tournaments: at the 1964 and 1968 Games, competitions were held in a round robin system, since 1972, knockout matches (play-outs) were introduced. off, or the Olympic system).
By 1996, the number of participants in the Olympic tournaments was increased to 12 and a new qualification system for the Games was introduced. The selection is made on the basis of the results of the previous World Cup draws, continental and world qualifying tournaments.
Olympic tournaments are held for men's and women's teams according to the same scheme, which provides for games strictly every other day and includes two stages: first, the participants of the competition play in a round robin system in two groups (A and B), then the teams that take 1-4th places in groups play in a system with elimination, starting from the quarter-finals. There are no qualifying matches at the Olympic Games: quarter-final losers are ranked 5th, teams A and B fifth are classified in 9th, outsiders group stage- in 11th place.
Beach volleyball was present at the 1992 Olympic Games in Barcelona as a demonstration sport, on September 24, 1993, at the 101st session of the International Olympic Committee in Monte Carlo, it was recognized as an Olympic sport and made its debut in the competitive program at the 1996 Olympic Games in Atlanta. Male and women's tournaments in this discipline began to be carried out simultaneously.
As in classical volleyball, tournaments consist of a group stage and a playoff. They involve 24 teams (no more than two from one country), which include the team of the host country, current world champions (since 2015), 15 leaders of the rating International Federation volleyball, 5 Continental Cup winners and 2 World Cup final teams.

Beach Volleyball - Russian Olympic Committee
Photo - Sergey Kivrin and Andrey GolovanovA game on a sand court divided by a net, in which two teams on opposite sides of the net throw the ball over the net with their hands in order to land it in their own half and prevent the ball from falling in their own half of the court. The team has 2 players. There are no replacements. The winning team is the one that wins 2 out of 3 sets. The first 2 sets are played up to at least 21 points, the third, decisive set - up to 15 points. A team wins a set if it is 2 or more points ahead of the opponent. A point is awarded after each ball is played. The team that won the point in the previous rally serves the ball. The ball may touch the net while serving. After the team has touched the ball 3 times, the ball must go to the other half of the court - to the opponents.

The group draw took place on 9 July. According to the rules, couples from the same country could not get into the same group, so all double teams must be separated.
Pool A Alison/Bruno Schmidt BRA Ranghieri/Carambula ITA Doppler/Horst AUT Binstock/Schachter CAN
One of the strongest groups. The Brazilians certainly look like the favorites here, but, as the last pre-Olympic tournaments have shown, it is possible to beat them, but so far the statistics speak in favor of Alison and Bruno, of all the rivals in this group, only Doppler and Horst were able to beat the Brazilians, once in 2015.
Pool B Brouwer/Meeuwsen NED Losiak/Kantor POL Böckermann/Flüggen GERBarsouk/Liamin ENG
Our guys have a working group, all the couples are well acquainted and even beaten. The Dutch seem to be the favorites, they were in second place in the Olympic rankings at the end of the selection. But the Olympics is a special tournament and the one who has stronger nerves will win here. If the guys calmly play their game, don't forget about speed, they will be able to get out of the group without additional play-offs.
Pool C Lucena/Dalhausser USA Nicolai/Lupo ITA Virgen/Ontiveros MEX Naceur. Ma/Belhai. C TUN
Here, the Americans look like the favorites, but it was the Italians who knocked them out with last Olympics in London and together with the Mexicans have already beaten them on the World Tour this season. Tunisians are completely unknown and it is impossible to predict how they will perform.
Pool D Pedro Solberg/Evandro BRA Samoilovs/Smedins J. LAT Schalk/Saxton CAN Diaz/Gonzalez CUB
Interesting group. Although the Brazilians are higher in the Olympic rankings, the Latvians periodically beat them at the stages of the World Tour. And the Cubans, although they do not play in such tournaments, have 8 gold medals at the NORCECA Beach Tour.
Pool E Nummerdor/Varenhorst NEDSemenov/Krasilnikov RUS Fijalek/Prudel POL Grimalt/Grimalt CHI
Here, our guys also have a good group, all opponents are quite capable.
Pool F Gibb/Patterson USA Herrera/Gavira ESP Huber/Seidl AUT Jefferson/Cherif QAT
Perhaps the Austrians look weaker, but the couple is very tenacious and uncompromising, which, even losing during the match, fights to the end and knows how to quick conclusions from my own mistakes.

Olympic Games - 2016. Handball players in the final! Results of the day
We conducted an online broadcast of the 13th day of the Olympics. The most interesting events, photos, messages from social networks and confessions of the heroes of the Games!
brazilian Agatha and Barbara lost gold medals to the Germans Laure Ludwig and Kira Walkenhorst, a Larissa and Talita failed to take bronze in the match with Kerry Walsh/April Ross. This day of endless Brazilian grief for their volleyball women (a day earlier, the women's volleyball team also left the Olympic tournament classical volleyball) is finally completed. The day of decisive matches for men has come: in the "golden" battle of the men's Olympic beach volleyball tournament, the favorites of the public should meet Alison/Bruno and Italian offenders of Russian couples Daniele Lupo and Paolo Nicolai.
But the Russian fan was much more worried about the match for bronze medals - for the first time in the history of beach volleyball, a domestic couple had every chance of winning awards. and could have played for gold - their own mistakes, backed up by an amazing
work of referees in the semi-final meeting with the Italians. Be that as it may, Slava and Kostya are worthy contenders for bronze. The Russian duet had a very even tournament, having lost only one game in almost two weeks - the same semi-final, a pair from Italy.
Krasilnikov and Semyonov did not force events and did not waste emotions in vain - in matches, even with venerable rivals, if it turned out, they did not gush with courage and mood, they cherished adrenaline. Flying through the group in one breath, from the first place went to the playoffs - the Poles were defeated Grzegorz Fialek/Mariusz Prudel, Dutch Reidner Nummerdor/Christian Warenhorst, Chileans Esteban Grimalt/Marco Grimalt. 1/8 final match with a couple from Qatar - Jefferson/Sheriff- and did seem to be a reference in terms of tactics, technique and psychological readiness of both the experienced Konstantin and the debutant of the Olympic Games Vyacheslav.
Olympic Games. Rio de Janeiro, August 18
Beach volleyball. Men.
Match for 3rd place
Krasilnikov / Semyonov (Russia) - Brower / Meuvsen (Netherlands) - 0:2 (21:23, 20:22).
The decoration of not only the path of our couple, but the entire tournament was the quarterfinal duel with the Cuban duo - Nivaldo Diaz and Sergio Gonzalez. In addition to representatives of the two Americas, few could boast of a close acquaintance with the game of these guys - Cubans do not participate in the World Tour. And at the Olympics in Rio de Janeiro, Diaz and Gonzalez went over their rivals with a skating rink. But they ran into resistance from the Russians. An incredible match, Krasilnikov's desperate feats on defense and Semyonov on the block - three games, none of which met the points limit (22:20, 22:24, 18:16), and Vyacheslav and Konstantin, who went all out, in semi-finals. After this massacre with the Cubans (it is difficult to call that meeting in another way) Russian couple no longer held back emotions - we could not hold back either. It was so powerful and so desperately beautiful!
And then ... Lupo and Nikolai ended up in the final, and Semyonov and Krasilnikov went out to fight for bronze medals with the Dutch Alexander Brower and Robert Meeuvsen, the second seeded of the Olympic tournament. The 2013 world champions also lost their semi-final in three games, although they had less chance of winning it. Brower and Meuvsen outright lost the first set to Brazilian favorites Alison and Bruno and lost the second - the hosts had three match points! At that moment, an insight descended on the Dutch, and the Brazilians suddenly decided to count the local crows - as a result, they had to play tie-
The Russian duo had a very even tournament, losing only one game in almost two weeks - the semi-final to the Italian pair.
break. In an already absolutely equal fight, the Brazilians turned out to be a little more even, more accurate and more successful. And now Mammoth Alison (that's what they call him in the "beach" world, although, in the author's humble opinion, this guy looks more like a bear) burrows almost completely into the sand. Apparently, trying to cool the heat caused by the victory.
The beginning of the match turned out to be equal: the Russian duet had better defense, the Dutch one had a serve and a block. Due to the masterful introduction of the ball into the game rivals Krasilnikov and Semyonov earn the first small gap – 7:4. By the next change of sides, the Russians caught up - Konstantin looked great on the block, and it was with this element of the game that our pair earned two break balls. By the middle of the game, Semyonov and Krasilnikov took the lead - 17:15: it was the Dutch who began to make inaccuracies, while Slava and Kostya tried to turn the momentum up to the limit. As a result, they themselves could not stand this pace - they lost two set points on the serve of Meeuvsen and lost the game in an equal game on the balance sheet - 21:23.
And immediately after the start of the second set, it started to rain, and the small drops falling on the sand of Copacabana, alas, also played against ours - and it was already difficult for them. Brower and Meuvsen already at the start of the set secured the advantage with a block, not allowing the slightest mistake in the attack. And they did not allow Semyonov and Krasilnikov to get closer – 12:9. The situation developed according to the scenario of the first set, but exactly the opposite: the Dutch couple had set points (or rather, already match points). There were many more - as many as three. On Krasilnikov's innings, the score equalized - Vyacheslav was much more aggressive than in the whole match, putting the ball into play. What prevented you from starting to do this earlier, Slava? So, 20:20 - Alexander and Robert did not raise an eyebrow. Krasilnikov simplified the next serve, they accepted it and literally knocked the ball into the Russian side of the site. And the matchball realized with the umpteenth attempt was really offensive - I made a mistake on the transfer.
The first Olympic medal in beach volleyball is still a Russian dream: Semyonov and Krasilnikov got closer to it than all current and retired athletes. I hope their path will lead them to Olympic history- already in Tokyo 2020.

Sports experts predict that Russia will have the medals of the 2016 Games in martial arts: in freestyle and Greco-Roman wrestling, judo, and boxing. Representatives of playing sports: basketball, volleyball, handball and water polo do not plan to leave South America without awards and medals.
