The fourth team has secured qualification for women's volleyball at the 2028 Olympic Games.
On 5 September 2026, in the final of the 2026 African Women's Volleyball Championship held in Nairobi, Kenya, the Egyptian women's volleyball team delivered an outstanding performance by decisively defeating the host nation Kenya 3-0 in sets—25-22, 25-15, 25-15—winning the continental championship for the first time in 23 years.
This victory not only awarded Egypt their fourth African championship title but also guaranteed their first-ever qualification for the 2028 Olympic Games in Los Angeles, USA, marking a historic milestone for Egypt's women's volleyball team.
This brings the total number of teams confirmed for the women's volleyball tournament at the 2028 Olympic Games to four, including:
United States (host nation)
Canada (North and Central American continental champion)
Thailand (Asian continental champion)
Egypt (African continental champion)
The European continental final will take place on Sunday, 6 September, while the South American competition will run from 9 to 14 September.
