 team was announced this week:

Celeste Plak

Jolien Knollema

Juliet Lohuis

Sarah van Aalen

Anne Buijs

Britt Bongaerts

Indy Baijens

Marrit Jasper

Nika Daalderop

Eline Timmerman

Florien Reesink

Elles Dambrink

Nova Marring (reserve)

 

Only two players remaining from the 2016 Olympic squad: Celeste Plak and Anne Buijs. Technically there is a third, because former setter Laura Dijkema is joining the coaching staff.

 

Nova Marring as a reserve is a surprise to me, I would've expected her over Knollema or Plak (Buijs can also play her position I believe). She is one of the highlights of the new generation. What do you think @CCB @AsensioWillemsen?

I would have preferred Marring over Buijs personally. Although I'm afraid we won't qualify for the KO phase anyway.

Not a great schedule for  . Two 09:00 AM games and I would've preferred  or  as final opponent. Now if we lose both of our first two games, it'll likely already be over before we face  and there is little meaning to potentially our only winnable game.

From a television perspective I don't mind 9 AM games, but being the first to play in the final round is also a big issue.

Volleyball World is a joke. I hope any team wins medals except Turkey and Serbia.

Group C done dirty with 5 matches at 9 am. The other two groups haven't got any matches this early.

No. Group C ate my dog at 8:34am on Sunday. They scared my children and that was stressful, seeming as though I am a single mother-father of 13.

First match of the Olympics, I’m excited!

I hope for an easy 3-0, at least I'll clear the second screen quickly

What a point at 9-6 in the 2nd set
