2013 CEV Youth European Championship - Serbia / Bosnia Herzegovina

Quote from Bartek

Poland won all matches -6- 3-0.
Tomorrow real challenge for Russia and Poland.

I think that is the most succesfull year for Poland Youth level ever.

Didn't Poland win this event in 2005?
Or do you mean both boys' and girls' team got great results?

Turkey beat France 3-1 and got the fifth place.its been an interesting tournament for us.we just lost against Russia and won all of other matches but stayed out of top 4!

1. Russia
2. Poland
3. Belgium

Fantastic tournament for Russia. I can't remember who is last player which impressed me on this level but Poletaev is a beast. 71% efficiency

So true! He was definitely the shinest player of Russia, but I would add their setter, too. Today he was doing completely outstanding things with Polish blockers...

Poland fought well but class difference was obvious. Yet, this generation can do big things

Congrats to Russia.
This is not too bad for Poland. At least they succeeded in one set and actually had a little chance in the fourth set. However, as Polish senior NT had struggled with OH problems for a long time (especially in receiving part), this problem also exists in youth team.Hopefully some kid could step out as a competent OH soon.
I also like the young libero, especially when he moves from right corner to left corner to take reception in extraordinary speed.

Congratulations for Russia.
