YES! ZAKSA Kędzierzyn-Koźle defeat Zenit Kazan in second match in semifinal of Champions League with winning golden set and makes the final, it's first time since 2014/2015 season that any Polish club makes the final there! :clap: Itas Trentino will be final opponent.

Almost a month is left before the start of the Nations League and we still don't have the schedule. :coffee:  It's a round-robin, all 16 teams are known, it's going to be in one location, what are these people waiting for? A computer can make the draw for 5 minutes..

Chinese women’s team will attend as scheduled. So the withdrawal of men’s team is more “financial”.  They may literally lose funding from federation due to bad performance.

Meanwhile in womens Champions League Conegliano wins 3-2 over Vakifbank. I'm glad that Italian team win here as Polish player Joanna Wołosz is among their players :d

I watched the womens final yesterday, a really close and exciting game! Wolosz really is one of the best setters in the world right now.

 

And I'm also happy Conegliano won, with Dutch player Robin de Kruijf

Just passing here to mention the new absolute NR of :SVK volleyball.

 

Our Womens National Team somehow jumped into the 25th place in the world FIVB ranking. Nothing mega impressive or noteworthy you may say, however it is the highest rank of any SVK volleyball NT ever mens or women.

 

Until now the NR was the Mens 26th place in January 2012 & August 2017. So a bit worth to be mentioned for the girls, btw both our teams managed to qualify for the EURO this year, the W team by winning all matches and losing only 1 single set.

    • Let's not act as if these things never happen before. Serbia's cross-country skiing drama a week before the Olympic qualifying for Beijing ended: FIS | Cross-Country Results - Zlatibor (SRB) 2021/2022   Drndic with a DNF, despite being - on paper at least - the best athlete. She didn't just 'not finish', she stepped out barely 50 meters before the finish, because if finishing, the points for her competitor would have been better due to the way points are calculated. Ended up with lots and lots of yelling and screaming and fighting and cursing, DNS the next day and in the end Serbia sent none of them.   This is not a shit move by Canada, this is a fault of the system at most.
    • Yes agreed, resetting it would help make it more dramatic as no one would be running away with it. We could also set it that there is a small reward for ranking higher after each round… maybe they start the next round with a “head start” so they bring a few points into the next round? But starting from scratch each round might be cleaner  
    • I like the concept a lot. My only worry would be that the nations doing the best individually would also end up at the top here as teams are only made up of pairs. Whereas in a bigger team it gives the nations not doing so well individually to have another chance if they are lucky enough to be placed in a good team. Any way we can balance it?
    • I thought about accumulating, but for higher drama it may be reset like in cycling track elimination races 
    • Those are the national junior championships, national championships are in Steinkjer, starting tomorrow: FIS | Steinkjer (NOR) - Event Details - Cross-Country
    • Nice for them, but also kind of too bad they pick the exact same two as last time. Would have been nice to see Regina Martinez for example (although I'm not sure that would have been logistically possible, depending on how they're going to do the flag bearer thing in the first place).

    • One of my favorite songs from the early 2000s that I listened to on a cassette on my walkman      
    • For me 20 medals will be good. And if more there are? Super. However, I prefer not to get my hopes up too much, so as not to be disappointed later.
