## Resource

In this episode of Volley Talk, we take a look at what happened during Week 1 of the 2026 Women's VNL competition. There are only 2 undefeated teams, and Italy's 39-match win streak has come to an end. With 4 new teams in both MLV and LOVB for the 2027 season, there has been an influx of new talent signing contracts to play in the US. Men's VNL Week 1 is coming this week!
