About the ranking

2024 is the fifth year with an official ranking system for countries with female athletes in the European Footvolley League. In 2019 we had a full Tour with 3 Qualifiers and 1 final event. In 2021 we hosted only 1 final Championship in Schwäbisch Gmünd, Germany. In 2022 the women earned ranking points in the World Challenge in Graz, in the EFVL Major in Schwäbisch Gmünd and in the EFVL Finals in Rome. The ranking of 2023 was based on the points of the EFVL Open 500 in Podersdorf, the EFVL Open 500 Women in Graz, the EFVL Major 1000 in Schwäbisch Gmünd, the EFVL Open 500 in Hartberg and the EFVL Finals 2000 in Albufeira. The current final ranking of 2024 is based on the EFVL Major 1000 in Schwäbisch Gmünd and the EFVL Finals 2000 in Bastia, France.

In case of tie breaks between countries we separated them with the following tie breakers:

1. Match wins

2. Head to head

3. Point difference

Ranking points system

This is the EFVL Major 1000 ranking point system used for all tournaments since 2016. In an EFVL Open 500 only 50% of these points will be given. In the EFVL Finals 2000 event at the end of a tour,, these ranking points count double.

At the start of the season EFVL uses the ranking points of the previous season to send invitations and calculate the seeding. After the first qualification tournament 50% of the points of the previous season are still counted together to 100% of the points of that first qualification tournament. After the second, third etc qualification tournaments only the points of the current season will be counted to calculate the seeding and send the invitations for the Finals.

How do countries qualify for the Finals?

The entire EFVL Tour is part of the European Championship of that year. There are 2 levels of qualification events: EFVL Major 1000 pts and EFVL Open 500 pts. The ranking after the last qualification event decides which member nations have a spot in the EFVL Finals 2000 tournament.

For the Women only the top 8 has a spot. Unless the host nation of the EFVL Finals is not in the top 8, then the Top 7 + the host nation have a spot. Also good to know, the winners of this EFVL Finals event are the official European Champions, no matter how many ranking points earned after the season.
