After finishing in the Top 3 to qualify for the 2012 Olympics at the recently concluded 2011 FIVB Women’s World Cup, Italy, USA and China were welcomed with a celebration as soon as they returned home.
Our friend Jeremy has created this special stats sheets for the 2011 FIVB World Cup. Again, it takes so much talent and patience to create something like this. This is a different kind of STATS from the FIVB website. Check it out!
So after every World Cup match, the local organizers get to pick the best player from the winning team or sometimes from the losing team. There’s no set criteria at all! Check out the GALLERY.
Italy will not be the same without her at the 2011 World Cup. After a disastrous performance at the 2011 Grand Prix & 2011 European Champs, one of Italia’s most experienced players has asked to be dismissed from the roster. Read her STATEMENT!
You need to see this gallery! Gorgeous player pics of the Italian volleybelles featuring Queen Piccinini, Anzanello, Gioli, Lo Bianco, Ortolani, Costagrande & many more!
Italy has won a couple of silver medals from this tournament but NEVER won the Grand Prix. We think the highlight this week will be Costagrande playing against her former team.
If you’re a FAN of Sheilla, Mari, Furst, Costragrande and Italian club team Scavolini Pesaro then you’re going to like and love these pics we found of the team’s 2008 calendar. We can’t make up our mind on the pic we like the MOST! Any suggestions?
