Top Young Talent Ready to Compete at
U19 Girls’ Pan American Cup in Kingston
KINGSTON, Ontario, June 18, 2025. – Volleyball excitement is
building in Kingston as the city prepares to host the NORCECA U19
Girls’ Pan American Cup from June 24 to 28 at Queen’s University’s
Athletics & Recreation Centre.
Seven national teams from the Americas will take the court in
pursuit of the Pan American crown, following Chile’s withdrawal due
to unforeseen travel issues.
Participating National Teams from NORCECA qualify for the 2026
NORCECA U19 Girls Continental Championship, which is part of the
qualification process to the 2027 U19 FIVB Girls World Championship.
Team USA enters the tournament as the defending champion and one of
the title favorites, aiming to retain their crown. The event was
last held in Puerto Rico in 2023 and saw the U.S. win gold, followed
by Mexico with silver, and host Puerto Rico winning bronze.
The tournament will feature three days of preliminary round-robin
play, culminating in high-stakes semifinals on Friday, June 27, and
medal matches on Saturday, June 28.

Puerto Rico, the United States, and Venezuela; Group B features host
Canada, Costa Rica, and the Dominican Republic.
