This is the best position of the national team of Ukraine in history!

The acquisition of new rating points in the FIVB rating was influenced by the performance of the team in the European Golden League 2023.

At the group stage of the tournament, the wards of Uģis Krastiņš won six out of six possible victories. "Blue and Yellows" became the first team in the history of the tournament, which did not lose a single set at this stage of the competition.

The Ukrainians reached the final of the European League, where they lost to Turkey (2:3) and, as a result, won silver awards.

Another reason for such an increase in the rating was the decision of the International Volleyball Federation to remove Russia and Belarus from the list.

The rating's leader is Poland, followed by the USA and Brazil.
