Women's Volleyball FIVB Nations League 2019


Recommended Posts

For the first time this year, I have enough time to fully watch a game of our NT, and wow, the girls are fighting with :NED for every point so far :bowdown: On you go ladies :cheer:

My favourite Volleyball position: LIBERO. You ask why? Look here. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZyIOarNAONk

Also, I gotta say I am impressed with :DOM performance this year :)  They already beat :BRAand :RUS, and now lead 1-0 vs :USA.

It is not so surprising considering they are almost complete with Team A. (1 or 2 less players) and Russia, Brazil and the USA are team B or C.

But it is a very talented team, I think they need a new coach.

We won 3-1, demolishing ::NED in the 1st and 4th set :clap:Sure, this is "just the Nations League", but still, I don't think we'd manage 2-3 years ago .  This tournament is shockingly good for us so far. This and the win in Montreux Volley Masters (our 1st ever) shows that something really good is starting to happen in our women NT. 

Not gonna lie, I feel a bit sentimental, as it's the women's team that actually  started my love for volley when I was a kid :clap: I still rememher the 2005 and (some of ;)) 2003 Euro like it was yesterday .


It is clear the girls have made incredible progress lately, and I hope it's only the beginning.

I do not expect much from this Brazilian team, but I confess to having some positive surprises. Brazil is very weak in the opposite, but Paula seems to have potential, Tainara is another good name.


The big problem is Leia, I do not see great security in her and Brazil urgently needs a good libero, as Suelen and Gabi are horrible.

There are two Gabi. The Gabi libero was also OH, but changed position, the problem is that did not work very well. :lol:

    • Regarding the swimming they have added the 800m for men and the 1500m for women so cutting numbers would be odd. 
    • That quota I’ve been told by an athlete aiming to qualify who I know online. 
    • Has the quota for Canada been offically confirmed anyway, or is that just a rumour? I can't find anything on google about it (nor the suggested quota for England's athletes someone posted earlier).   12 per gender would make sense (it's roughly what Canada sent to Birmingham). 12 overall seems dumb.
    • Some sports have qualification systems   3x3 basketball (wheelchair) Para-cycling Powerlifting Weightlifting
    • In the past few games, Canada (and other nations) was given an overall athlete quota which they then divided it through the various sports.
    • Whose decision was this, Team Canada's or the Organising committes?
    • I’ve been told there are no straight finals planned for the swimming. 
    • I’m suprsied the games is still that big!
