Betclic and FFVolley: partnership extended until 2028

Bordeaux, July 15, 2025 - Betclic, the leading sports betting operator in France, renews its collaboration with the French Volleyball Federation for four new seasons (2025-2028). This renewal marks Betclic's strengthened commitment to a sport of growing popularity.

French volleyball on the rise

Led by its President, Eric Tanguy, and his staff, the French Volleyball Federation has achieved great success in recent years, with two Olympic medals (2021 and 2024) and a historic growth in membership (240,000).

National championships (Men's and Women's Ligue A) are gaining momentum, with significant transfers and record streaming audiences.

Driven by charismatic figures like Earvin Ngapeth or Jenia Grebennikov among the men, and Lucille Gicquel or Héléna Cazaute among the women, volleyball today is establishing itself as a popular phenomenon that shines on international stages.

A winning bet on the Betclic app

Volleyball is increasingly appealing to Betclic players. It now ranks 6th among the most bet-on disciplines on the app, notably benefiting from the 2024 Olympic Games, where the France-Poland final was the second most bet-on event of the Games (excluding major sports).

It is the Top 10 sport that has experienced the best betting dynamics over the past two years, with more than 15% of Betclic players now wagering on this discipline.

With its suspenseful matches and a dynamic betting offer (bets possible on every point of the match, such as on the player who will score the next point...), Volleyball easily lends itself to live betting, a growing practice among bettors.

This partnership will further enhance the visibility of Volleyball among the 3 million monthly Betclic players, thus offering it significant exposure, particularly thanks to the in-app broadcasting of about twenty competitions, from the Polish PlusLiga to matches of the Marmara Spike League, or even the Nations League, where our Blues shine.

Three years to highlight tricolor volleyball

In-app campaigns, contests, editorial content, enhanced visibility around key matchups... All levers will be activated to support the growth of tricolor Volleyball and accompany it on the path to true European recognition.

Nicolas Béraud, founder and CEO of Betclic: “The French volleyball scene is experiencing a silent yet spectacular revolution, and we are proud to support this beautiful adventure. By partnering again with FFVolley, Betclic reaffirms its lasting commitment alongside a federation that is full of momentum, backed by historic results and an ambitious vision for the 2028 Olympics.”

Éric Tanguy, President of FFVolley: “The renewal of our partnership confirms the growing collaboration in recent years. Volleyball is advancing both in terms of sport and media presence among the French and global public with the involvement and investment of Betclic. Four rich seasons lie ahead, and the Federation is proud and delighted to experience this alongside Betclic.”
