Montreux Volley Masters


The Montreux Volley Masters was an international invitational tournament for national teams in women's volleyball hosted by the Swiss Volley. Held annually in Montreux, Switzerland since 1984, it was the tournament that opened the international season for national teams. It ceased to exist after 34 editions in 2020.
The main objective of this competition was to work as a preparation for more important and prestigious volleyball tournaments organized by the Fédération Internationale de Volleyball, such as the World Grand Prix, the World Championship, the World Cup and the Olympic Games. Many national teams used the tournament as a way of giving experience and international baggage to young players and, as a result, countries were often represented by their underage national teams.
