13*

I imagine she won't get much playtime, then, considering there are five other OHs. Still, Heynen must have seen some great potential in her if he's taking her to train with the senior team.
She's played mostly as an OPP or receiving OPP.
-
Uzelac was also 16 in rimini 2021
Also Gocanin in 2019, Herbotts in 2016,.....?
But actually all of them were near 17yo, while Grozer just turned 16.
Is it Vargas the youngest ever? Phil
-
Grozer certainly has great potential but it's too early for this level. She started as OPP (probably family tradition) but has been transitioning to OH because she's just 1.80, even if she grows a few cm more she'd be too short as OPP for the highest level and she's a decent receiver so it makes sense to turn her into OH. She also has a very good technique and understanding of the game, I wonder how she'll use her chances which according to Heynen she will get.

I think so. Vargas was born in October 1999 and played World Grand Prix in 2013.

She is hitting the ball absolutely insane like her father, especially at service
. And she was contracted for next season by record champion Schwerin in German first league. -

Maybe Heynen wants to impress the other teams with
her name? But honestly you don't want to receive her service. -
Oh please, for adult teams her serve is no problem at all, she's not Egonu or Haak or Vargas or Arina
For junior players it's hard to receive but she won't have an impact on this level. -

Serbia week 3
S: Drca, Ognjenovic
OPP: Boskovic, Bjelica
OH: Busa, Lozo, Uzelac, Lazovic, Milenkovic
MB: Stevanovic, Aleksic, Popovic
L: Pusic, Jegdic
If I'm not mistaken the last time China faced Boskovic was at VNL 2018. That was the tournament when LYY first debuted for the NT.
They avoided each other at both WCHs 2022/2018 and VNL 2022. World Cup 2019 (Bjelica) and VNL 2021 (Caric), 2019 (Kubura).
Should be a fun lefty vs lefty match!

yeah, even without Boskovic, Serbia and China rarely played in last few years
and now we will play at lest twice this year -

And Korea was awarded to host this spectacle for few tremendous years in VNL
P.S few days ago Ognjenovic, Drca and Antonijevic was on Rasic wedding together, i wish at least one of them are born in 1990 at least

I think so. Vargas was born in October 1999 and played World Grand Prix in 2013.
Hui Ruo-qi played warm-ups against Japan in 2007. She was 16 years old then.
Wang Yi-mei parcitipated in 2004 WGP. She was 16 years old then.
