Neuchâtel Université Club (NUC) has secured its seventh consecutive Swiss women’s volleyball championship title, defeating Kanti Sciaffusa in a straight-sets final to complete a historic domestic double.
The Neuchâtel-based side clinched the championship with a 3-0 victory (25-21, 25-17, 25-17) in Game 3 of the best-of-five series held at La Riveraine on April 17, 2026. The win came just weeks after NUC captured its fourth straight Swiss Cup title in late March, cementing its dominance in Swiss women’s volleyball.
According to match reports, Kanti Sciaffusa offered minimal resistance throughout the final, failing to win a single set against the defending champions. Fabiana Branca and her teammates delivered a commanding performance, with the decisive third set mirroring the earlier frames in its one-sided nature.
This championship marks NUC’s seventh straight title in the Swiss women’s volleyball league, extending a period of unrivaled supremacy in the domestic game. The club’s ability to win both league and cup competitions in the same season underscores the depth and consistency of its roster.
The victory adds to NUC’s growing legacy in Swiss volleyball, following a season in which they as well eliminated Volley Lugano in the Swiss Cup quarterfinals with a 3-1 win (25-18, 25-16, 23-25, 25-15) back in January.
With the domestic double secured, NUC now turns its focus toward upcoming challenges, though no specific next fixtures were detailed in the verified match reports covering the championship-clinching game.
What this sustained success means for the competitive balance of Swiss women’s volleyball remains a topic of discussion among fans and analysts, as NUC continues to set new benchmarks for longevity and excellence in the sport.
