Brazil’s female national team is already on its way to Anaheim, California where they will face off against Team USA in the USAV Cup. Both teams will use the friendly tournament as preparation for FIVB’s World Grand Champions Cup. José Roberto Guimarães kept his promise to rejuvenate his team, and as so, called upon the same players that participated in the 2017 FIVB’s World Grand Prix. So to fans all over the world, still no Olympic Champions and superstars Sheila Castro, Fabiana de Oliveira, Jaqueline Carvalho, and Fabiana Claudino. Soon, Volleymob.com will be doing a full USAV Cup Preview with everything you should expect from both match ups.
