Volleyball World, the sport’s commercial vehicle, has unveiled an extension of its media rights tie-up with United Media across six Balkan countries in southeast Europe until 2032.
The deal, stretching across Bosnia and Herzegovina, Croatia, North Macedonia, Montenegro, Serbia, and Slovenia, runs between 2025 and 2032. United Media owns the Sport Klub subscription broadcaster in those territories.
The agreement includes competitions such as the FIVB World Championships, Volleyball Nations League, Club World Championships, Beach Volleyball World Championships, and the Beach Pro Tour.
Volleyball World was advised in this agreement by the SN1 agency.
Volleyball TV, the in-house Volleyball World streaming service, will have co-exclusive rights in this region, alongside United Media.
In late January, Volleyball World also extended a media rights deal in Brazil with Globo.
