Work, passion and team spirit – these were the ingredients of an excellent volleyball weekend in Blaj! Our girls played a series of very useful warm-up matches against the hosts Atomic Blaj and ACS Champions Sibiu.
At the end of the weekend, the record is perfect on paper, and above all very valuable in terms of play and gaining experience.
Mini-volleyball: spectacular play and two clear 3-0 wins 🥳✨
Our youngest mini-volleyball players put on a real show on court. Focused, full of energy and very well organised, the girls handled both matches of the friendly three-team tournament excellently:
-
Volleyball Forever – Atomic Blaj: 3-0
-
Volleyball Forever – ACS Champions Sibiu: 3-0
Beyond the clear scores, what makes us happiest is the joy with which they played, their positive attitude and the way they put into practice the drills from training. A friendly start to the season that gives them a huge dose of confidence!
U17 cadets: a comeback from a tough start and a 3-0 win 🚀
The U17 cadets match against Atomic Blaj was a real lesson in character and sporting maturity.
The start of the match caught us a little sleepy, and the hosts took full advantage, quickly pulling away to 9-1, which seemed to put us in trouble. But, just like the big football teams used to turning around impossible results – in true Inter Milan style – our girls refused to give in.
They closed ranks, rebuilt the block, adjusted their serve and began a spectacular chase. After levelling and winning the first set, the girls took control of the match for good, closing it out with a hard-earned and fully deserved 3-0!
Steady steps towards the official matches
The Blaj weekend showed us that we have united squads, able both to dominate from start to finish (in mini-volleyball) and to fight back through tough moments (in U17).
Thank you to our hosts Atomic Blaj and our colleagues from ACS Champions Sibiu for the invitation, the fair play and the very useful test matches!
