Is Radka also one of the Dimitrova sisters ? -

Is Radka also one of the Dimitrova sisters ?
No, there are just a lot of bulgarians with family Dimitrov/a. Maybe every fourth bulgarian is Dimitrov/a. Even me are one of them.

Slovakia had some good Junior generations in the last years and this year they get totally run over by Greece and Belgium Anyone knows why they're so weak in this generation?
Poland surprisingly with some problems against Spain, I expected a clear victory.
Germany won easily against Israel, great performance by MB Wiebke Silge with 18 points (5 aces) and 11/14 in attack 15 year old Hanna Orthmann is the other starting MB, our coach said she is a "jewel".

Spain lost 1-3 against Poland. Sara Esteban (1997, 186 cm, OH), the new sensation of spanish volleyball, did a great match: 20 points, 49% attack, 2 blocks, 1 ace. I hope she'll be considered for Senior NT as soon as possible.

Hande Baladin plays as MB again, at least in today's match, and she did very well with 80% in attack and 6 blocks. I'm not sure if it's a good idea turning her into OH considering that Turkey doesn't have many strong MBs...

German setter Irina Kemmsies dislocated her thumb today in 2nd set and can't play against Slovenia tomorrow.
Other than that, another great match by Wiebke Silge with 15 points (10/12 in attack) and today also Julia Schäfer with 19 pts and 56% attack was very good. I hope the team can beat Slovenia also with Sydlik as setter... -
Congratulations to our bulgarian girls. They beat Russia with 3:1 and are on European championship. For me it's a big victory for such a small nation like us to beat a team Russia no matter in what age group.

Hande is a great prospect, she is a very solid blocker. However, since she has very good technical capabilities, Eczacıbaşı doesn't want to waste her talent as only MB. That's why she has been trained for OH and Opp this season. You are right about that MB is our weakest point. Yet, we have good MB youngsters: Dicle Nur Babat and Özgenur Yurtdagülen from 1992-93 generation, Kübra Akman, Aslı Kalaç and Ceylan Arısan from 1994-95 generation. Moreover, from this generation, Aybüke Özdemir and Su Zent are very promising players. On the other hand, we don't have any promising OH candidate with good physique. Both Ada Germen and Hümay Topaloğluare short players whereas Rida Erlalelitepe is very bad at reception. From 1994-95 generation, Damla is not capable of playing in seniot NT. Only promising OH among youngsters is Seyma Ercan. Thus, I believe we will need good tall OHs more than MBs in a few years by considering upcoming players' level
By the way, Pelin Aroğuz is playing horrible, even against very weak opponents. Yesterday &30 today &19 at attack She was supposed to be best Opp of her generation
