    Anyone can support a team that is winning - it takes no courage. But to
    stand behind a team to defend a team when it is down and really needs
    you, that takes a lot of courage.


    thanks mateo :thumbup: Kasia :heart:

    Congrats ! Go Poland ! :super:


    It is only Belarus, so I wouldn't call 3:2 win a succes. But on the other hand - it was first game of our NT after the long break, so it is nice they managed to win it. It should be better and better. I hope so.

    I don't know if this will ever qualify for this thread but I think its worth mentioning. The US Women National Team was split into 2 teams - Blue and Red for a scrimmage today and another one on the 24th. This is in preparation for the World Grand Prix and maybe World Championships.


    Red Team includes Logan Tom, Megan Hodge, Destinee Hooker, Heather Bown, Lauren Paolini, Foluke Akinradewo, Nellie Spicer, Nancy Metcalf, Stacy Sykora


    Blue Team had Cynthia Barboza, Ogonna Nnamani, Jennifer Joines-Tamas, Christa Harmotto, Alisha Glass, Courtney Thompson, Nicole Davis, Nicole Fawcett and Anggie Pressey


    Red team won in a 4-set predetermined match.


    Yes, Logan Tom is back! and she was the topscorer of the match with 28-big points. Megan Hodge had 19 points.


    The Blue Team was led by Cynthia Barboza and Ogonna Nnamani with 14 points each.

    Your welcome Joana.


    Actually forgot to mention that there were some big names missing on the scrimmage like - Kim Glass (still rehabbing an injury) and Lindsey Berg (off after the Italian Serie A-1).

    http://aktualnosci.siatka.org/…k-w-sparingu-z-bialorusia n hereu can watch short video from this match


    it seems that Kaczor is playng as OH but she is not receving. so i assume Kosek and Maj had to cover the whole field. i think this MIGHT be the solution for our OH position, change Kaczor into OH but give her as little to receive as possible. therefore we would have 2 strong spikers(Skowronska and Kaczor) and with Baranska we would have good receiver who can spike as well. wonder if it's just experiment for this friendly match purpose only or it is some sort of idea of Matlak of our starting six for this year. i think WGP will give as a clue and we will learn more about that :)
    anyway congrats for our girls. it's obvious they are not in great shape yet but it's nice they menage to won 2 matches one very tight and one very one side .

    you, that takes a lot of courage.


    this is exactly what we are doing in NT with adapting Seda as OH and esra-nihan as receiver for whole field. It seems no problem nowadays but i think it would not work in the mathches with high classed teams like brazil,china,italy... so i think Matlak is supposed to use Kosek and baranska for mor stable team. :whistle: and chiappini also must use gozde and esra in my opinion

    well we did it before with Podolec and it worked quite well.however Podolec played like real OH she received like any other. with Kaczor it seems like she will just spike from left wing and she won't receive at all. to be honest i'm not fan of such an experiment . as you said with a teams like Italy Brasil etc that may be self killing tactic.
