As a two-time Olympian and former athlete, Kawai-san has a deep knowledge of volleyball and a strong passion and vision for the sport’s development in Japan. At the FIVB, we are delighted to work together with the JVA to bring more exciting opportunities and international events to Japan which is well-known for its passion for our sport and long-standing volleyball traditions.”
