  • Right, she had longer hair in WGP...but hers looked natural, not like Castillo's :D

    Maybe looks natural, because were better done :D I checked last year photos and I'm pretty sure that for Olympic Games she had also her hair done ^^

  • According to Pappi's post no, there will be qualification tournamnets + Play Offs which give 6 places for NORCECA. This tournament is continental championships, but without qualifications for WCH even for the winner - probably USA.


    That's not true


    The Champion will qualify for the World Championship and Great Champions Cup

    The winners of the competition get a ticket to this year’s FIVB Grand Champions Cup in Nagoya and Tokyo in Japan next November.


    who's been entitled to announce that Norceca championship a qualifier to WCH? :set:

    i may not be the tallest,
    the fastest, or the strongest,
    but at least i can do one thing better than anyone else,
    to be me...

    only the champion will qualify to the FIVB Women's Grand Champions Cup. ithis event does not classify any team toworld championship 2014

  • NORCECA's format is ridiculus. They should try with a rounf robin like CSV did this year. It has no sense to let USA meet Costa Rica or Santa Lucia. It is better a round robin with the best six teams (USA, Puerto Rico, Rep. Dominicana, Cuba, Canada and... Mexico/Trinidad & Tobago).

    Totally agree, teams like Costa Rica or Saint Lucia are total background here. ^^

  • I lost in Norceca's maze.

    Cuba as 3rd, after defeat by Mexico, in Group where will play after group phase? In Quarter, in pre-Quarter?

  • So Mexico beat Cuba 3-2. Cuba is dropping in level year by year by losing all of their players. Cuban federation should do something about that and realize that their hard line doesn't work.
