Good group for our womens team with Turkey the biggest threat, but they are not what they used to be years ago. I think we can get a qualification. :) Also we were with Romania, Switzerland and Montenegro just a few weeks ago in the Euro qualification, that is some twisted luck. :d

Finally CEV and FIVB made a good choice and allowed teams like:AZE :CYP:NIR or:ISL to compete with other teams instead of shutting them in the stupid Small Country Division system :)

I'm very upset that Maritza drew the world champions Eczacibasi :mad: We have a fairly strong team and would have had a chance against nearly all other teams. :wall:

    • Yep. Not sure if it was the NOC or the biathlon federation (I assume the latter) that put him in the Livigno training 'world' with a former Italian biathlete as coach, but they can definitely also be blamed:  almost everyone involved in that shitshow got the motivation just sucked out of them by the methods and shitty atmosphere until they either retired or changed country

    • Lots of injuries, including often just pure bad-luck stuff like a fall from a set of stairs, illness, and of course the Sochi tragedy in 2014: one of her biathlon friends, young Julia Pieper, killed herself with a biathlon rifle early during the Olympics (she wasn't on the team, but was a training partner of both Preuss and Dahlmeier). Obviously a hard hit, which led to terrible Olympics for Preuss, with a DNF, awful results in her other individual races and a relay where she was the first runner for Germany, but fell early on, got snow in her rifle and broke a pole and ended up losing almost 3 minutes, which in turn resulted in Germany being off the podium for the first time ever.   After that came all the injuries and illness and everything. So glad to finally see her have her big individual global gold, that is so well deserved.
