The twelve teams qualified for the Games were divided into four merit groups based on the FIVB ranking and were formed three groups of four teams each: the first two classified in each group and the two best third classified will qualify for the quarter-finals.

Italy was seeded by virtue of second place in the FIVB ranking together with France (host country) and Brazil (at the top of the international ranking), and was already certain of being included in Pool C: the Italians have caught the formidable Türkiye by coach Daniele Santarelli, therefore it promises to be a very tough challenge against the European Champions led by Melissa Vargas and Ebrar Karakurt. The commitment with the Netherlands appears easieralso pay attention to mangy Dominican Republic. The girls of coach Julio Velasco have everything it takes to reach the quarter-finals and then try to compete for a medal, considering the caliber of this team.
