* Notes:
- 1. Cuba was the 1983 NORCECA Championship runners-up (champions United States, were already qualified as hosts), but together with East Germany (1983 European champion), Soviet Union (1980 Olympic champion) and other countries, boycotted the games.
- 2. Canada, South Korea and "West Germany replaced Cuba," East Germany and the Soviet Union.
- 3. In a change in the classification process, the best team in the FIVB ranking that had not qualified for the Games would gain a spot in the tournament. In this way, the remaining place wentββto South Korea; however, with the boycott there was another place left and it was reassigned to the second best non-qualifier, which was Brazil.
Formatβ»
