The Bahrain Volleyball Association has officially appointed Montenegrin coach Ivan Joksimovic as the new head coach of the national men’s volleyball team for the upcoming period. The agreement was reached in coordination with the management of Dar Kulaib Club, where Joksimovic currently serves as head coach.
The appointment comes amid Bahrain’s preparations for the 4th Gulf Games, set to take place in Doha from May 11 to May 22.
Joksimovic arrives in strong domestic form, having guided Dar Kulaib Club through a dominant 2025–26 Isa Bin Rashid Bahrain Volleyball League campaign. The team remains unbeaten with 23 wins and is firmly positioned as one of the leading contenders for the national title.
Under his leadership, Bahrain will begin its Gulf Games campaign on May 16 against Oman. The team will return to action the following day against the United Arab Emirates, before facing Kuwait on May 19.
A key fixture in the group stage comes on May 20, when Bahrain meets hosts Qatar, before concluding its campaign against Saudi Arabia on May 22.
