Middle blocker Ostrowska from Łaskovia should be there IMO, she was the best middle in the Polish Championship

but other than that I think the roster looks good!

Pinderska switched to OH again or is she playing both OH and OPP?

She mostly (like 90% of the time) plays as OH again.

Quote from volleySrb

Training camps already? Our federation will call girls a week before traveling

idk why USA released theirs. they're not training until one week in june and one week in europe.

considering they dont even release the VNL roster until the day before lol

Please don't let her become another Drużkowska because I'm starting to see some similarities

Remy Catojo is super tall and I'm curious of her performance as a setter. The most promising MB Ella Hope isn't here.

At 194 cm, she is going to be the second tallest setter in history worldwide, tied with Polina Matveeva. Albertine Van der Goot, 197 cm, is the tallest.

Brazil has another mega tall setter, who might play in this tournament: Giovana Souza Ribeiro, representing Barueri U21, born 2005 and 193 cm. Giovana Souza Ribeiro 

Quote from tomen

the roster of U19 female NT in 2025:

Head Coach: Yuan Zhi (former OP of Chinese men's NT)

Players: (bold as the members of the winner of 2024 U18 ACH)

S: Ma Zhuo-xuan (Henan), Wang Yi-bo (Sichuan)

OP: Yang Ke-xin (Zhejiang), Cang Jun-zhu (Fujian), Li Yi-yi (Henan)

OH: Cao Ye-xuan (Beijing), Ren Yan-yu (Hebei), Huang Yue-xin (Shanghai), Chen Yu-fei (Shanghai)

MB: Jin Jia-bao (Beijing), Song Zi-ning (Shanghai), Shen Jia-yi (Zhejiang)

L: Chen Zi-yao (Beijing), Song Jia-yi (Shandong)

without Zhang Zi-xuan (S, in the senior NT), Zhu Zan (S), Yang Shu-ming (OP, in the senior NT), Sun Hong-yun (OH/OP), Zhai Yu-rui (OH), Tang Jing-xia (MB), Wang Ao-qian (MB, in the senior NT)

Cang Jun-zhu and Li Yi-yi are both lefty and even they are like Zeng Chun-lei and Yang Fang-xu because Li Yi-yi is like Yang Fang-xu.

I doubt Zhang Zi-xuan might still return the team if necessary.

Some fans questioned that why Sun Hong-yun is out.

This year's Chinese U19 NT might be not the best one. Of course, if necessary, Zhang Zi-xuan, Yang Shu-ming and Wang Ao-qian might return U19 NT.

Holly Carlton was a 2.01 Setter/Opposite in the USA. (in the old VB system of setting in the back, hitting in the front)

Brazil has already released its inicial roster some weeks ago:

🇧🇷 U19 - Roster

*Setters*

Luanna Vasquez, 180, 2007, Barueri

Maria Eduarda "Maduh", 176, 2008, Pinheiros*

*Libero*

Júlia Fontana, 2007, Sesi Bauru*

Luize Tavares, 184, 2007, Sesi Bauru

Ane Kelly, 180(?), 2008, Nova Trento*

Valentina Biondo, 188, 2009, Minas

Bibi Romar, 180, 2009, Pinheiros*

The ones with * were invited, but can be on the main roster if they show capable

The best prospects are, in my opinion, the girls from 2008-2009 generation (Maria Eduarda S, Laura Maccarone OH, Valentina OP). There are some good 2007 girls (Luana S, Giovana MB, Lara Gabriele MB, Mikaela and Giovana Micaelly OHs), but they need more work
