FYI: Coach Heynen will give his precious scoring maching György Grózer a longer break with the National Team as soon as he finishes his commitments with his Russian club team.
For now, the following players have been summoned:
Setters:
Lukas Kampa (Modena/ITA), Simon Tischer (Lyon/FRA), Sebastian Kühner (BR Volleys)
Opposite Hitters:
Jochen Schöps (Rzeszow/POL), Simon Hirsch (Generali Haching), Marvin Prolingheuer (TV Ingersoll Bühl)
Liberos:
Ferdinand Tille (Generali Haching), Markus Steuerwald (Paris/FRA), Dennis Hefter (CV Mitteldeutschland)
Outside Hitters:
Denis Kaliberda (Piacenza/ITA), Christian Fromm (Citta di Castello/ITA), Björn Höhne (TV Ingersoll Bühl), Sebastian Schwarz, Tom Strohbach (Generali Haching), Dirk Westphal (Radom/POL)
Middle Blockers: Marcus Böhme (Generali Haching), Tim Broshog (Moerser SC), Philipp Collin (Tours/FRA), Michael Andrei (St-Nazaire/FRA), Jaromir Zachrich, Georg Klein (evivo Düren)
Coach Heynen and Germany will compete in 2 major competitions this year, the FIVB World League which kicks off next month and the World Championship.
With this roster, we wonder how come Robert Kromm and Max Gunthor are NOT on the roster.
We smell conflict.
Training Camp starts on May 5th.
