Turkey’s ‘Young Sultans’, last year’s European and World Champions, were victorious once again in their third consecutive final, claiming the European championship title yesterday in Ankara.

Turkey's National Junior Women's Volleyball Team beat Serbia by 25-21, 25-22 and 25-18 yesterday in Ankara at the 2012 European Junior Women's Volleyball Championship final. Turkey's team displayed an excellent game last night in front of 6,500 spectators at the capital's Başkent Hall.

Gökhan Edman, trainer for the Junior Women's National Volleyball Team addressed trainers and clubs to say, "They should trust in these kids and let them play. And we can go on this year and win another world championship."
The A Women's National Team Trainer Alper Erdoğuş stated, "This championship brings us great joy. Captain Damla came out and played just six months after pulling a tendon and received the award for MVP. This is truly incredible."

Süleyman Kalkan, the General Manager of VakıfBank, the National Team's main sponsor expressed how proud they were of the girls and used the expression;"They deserve all that is beautiful."

1-2-3 won't do…


After winning the past three championships played, Turkey's Junior National Women's Volleyball Team has set their sights on the World Championship to be held in the Czech Republic in July. Meanwhile, the European Volleyball Confederation website referred to the girls as 'a magical squad.'
