The Swedish Volleyball Federation is together with the organizers KFUM Örebro and Södertelge VBK ready to broadcast live from the top youth events Mikasa Challenge and the Swedish Junior Championships, thanks to a new cooperation with Solidsport.

For the fourth year in a row, this year's Junior Championchips in volleyball will be broadcasted live on 21-22 May, thanks to a collaboration between the organizer Södertelge VBK, the Swedish Volleyball Federation and Solidsport.

And now Mikasa Challenge together with the organizer KFUM Örebro chooses to follow in the same footsteps. Mikasa Challenge is played May 6-8 in Örebro and this year breaks records with over 300 youth teams in the classes Level 4 to Level 7. In total, over 1000 games are played on 56 pitches.

We’re very happy to be able to offer these live broadcasts. We know that there are many who want to follow these young players in our biggest youth competition.

All games in Level 7, the highest level, will be streamed on Solidsport. This means that fans and loved ones who can’t be present in the arenas can still follow the events. Live and on demand.

- We’re very happy to be able to offer these live broadcasts. We know that there are many who want to follow these young players in our biggest youth competition. Volleyball is growing strongly right now and thus the need to be able to follow the sport increases.
