Volleyball: Poland gearing up for Final Six match in Nations League

Poland first take on Russia in Final Six Pool B on Wednesday.

On Sunday, the team completed their first practise in the city of Tourcoing, Polish sports daily Dziennik Sportowy reported.

Paweł Woicki, assistant to the Polish national team’s coach Vital Heynen said: “All the players are in good health, everyone took part in the training and they are ready for action.”

The squad travelled to France without Mateusz Mika, who underwent an appendix operation after their return from Australia.

Poland are fourth in the overall table. The Poles have nine wins under their belt in the competition and four defeats.

The Volleyball Nations League is a new idea from the FIVB, the sport’s international governing body. The men’s international volleyball tournament is contested by 16 national teams and replaces the World Grand Prix competition.
