The Argentina team made their international debut at the South American Championship in Rio de Janeiro in 1951, claiming fourth place. They competed in their first World Championship 1960 in the same city, where they finished 11th.The team's best achievements are the bronze medal at the 1982 World Championship, the bronze medal at the 1988 Summer Olympics and two gold medals at the 1995 and 2015 Pan American Games. Throughout the 1990s it was usually ranked among the first ten.[1]
In recent years, though without achieving any medal, the team finished 4th at the 2000 and 5th at the 2004, 2012 and 2016 Summer Olympics. However, they achieved another milestone of achievement when they won another Bronze medal at the Volleyball at the 2020 Summer Olympics
At continental level, overshadowed by volleyball power Brazil, Argentina won two gold medals at the South American Men's Volleyball Championships (in 1964 and 2023), nineteen silvers and eight bronzes.Volleyball was introduced in Argentina by the YMCA - Youth Christian Association in 1912. The Argentine Volleyball Federation was created in 1932, sharing the same management as Basketball. The number of fans slowly started to grow as a result of its broadcasting.
