KLAGENFURT. QUALIFICATION DAY. We played two games yesterday winning one and losing one. Our ranking was 17th so we got tough draw- Dutch and Switzerland. We won Dutch in great battle 2-1 and we were really happy for our performance after some time. Our side out worked well, thanks to Claudia and also tactic was good enough to take important balls in a crucial moments! Its a pity that one of us finished this tournament so early. We still got to play one more game w European silver medallist Goricanec/Hüberli. We had good fight w them but we didnt give enough pressure to win them. We lost 19 and 18. Servis was in big role and today we were not good in it! Thats a shame to lose game because of that. Now we just stay here in Klagenfurt with our new coach Claudia and make some first practices together. After we go to Switzerland and play CEV master in Biel. This season has been up and downs and really up and downs. Beginning of season was great with 2 bronce medals in CEV and 9th place in European Champs but after started long period with loses in qualification and we couldnt manage to get out of it alone without coach. It is really tough for our mentalities. We made some bad decisions and just tried to continue our way alone. This never worked and will never work if you want to be the top team! So now the road is rocky and long to get what we had. Lets work correct now and play two last tournaments (CEV and Grand Slam Stare Jablonk where we are in reserve team).
