Is this really TRUE?
If it is, no wonder she’s NOT on the National Team despite being one of the best scorers in the Italian League last season.
According to some information we have obtained, Croatian spiker Katarina Barun reportedly suffers from AVIOPHOBIA aka Fear Of Flying.
When you play for your NT, the commitment requires a lot of traveling and a lot of flying throughout the season. It is totally understandable why the 31 year old declines the invitation to play for her country.
According to this article, “ABOUT one in five people have some fear of flying or aviophobia.” We can only hope she will conquer the fear and represent her country in the near future.
For the upcoming season, the left handed opposite hitter will remain in Italy.
