Shangluo: Taiwan's girls' volleyball team rallied to defeat Trkiye 3-1 in the final of the 2026 ISF World School Volleyball Championship on Thursday, securing the country's first title at the tournament since Taiwan competed at the tournament under a national team format. After dropping the opening set 22-25, Taiwan responded by winning the next three sets 25-19, 25-19, and 25-23 to complete the comeback in Shangluo, China.

According to Focus Taiwan, middle blocker Wu Tzu-hua and outside hitter Xu Zhen-xuan, both members of Taiwan's squad for the 2026 Asian Games in Nagoya, helped lead the team throughout the tournament. Taiwan advanced to the knockout stage without dropping a set after finishing first in its group.
