With backing from the FIVB Volleyball Empowerment program, Latvia benefited from $210,000 allocated for coaching and $5,500 dedicated to equipment. This support was critical, alongside the efforts of coaches Arnis Relins, Genadijs Samoilovs, Daniel Rodriguez Wood, and Sandris Andrejevs, in propelling the teams to success.
