Today, Sunday, May 12th, on the sandy fields of the Jarun Sports Center, the Croatian team qualifications were held in U 20. Our club was represented by Karlo Burić (2001) and Alex Ćetojević (2003). This was the first such experience for them.
Although they were the youngest in the competition of 4 teams from Split, Zagreb (2) and Umag, and without experience playing these tournaments, they showed a very high level of technical knowledge in this sport and perhaps the best in this tournament.
The guys played great moments and fought great with older teams, and just lacked a bit more experience in playing these games. They were delighted with the favorites of the tournament. But surely one thing is that we have got a very good team, with excellent technical knowledge of beachvolley playing, which will be sure togather another season (as juniors).
THE RESULTS:
K.Burić / A.Ćetojević – B.Kljajić / L.Capan 0: 2 (18:21, 17:21)
K.Burić / A.Ćetojević – M.Kozlica / M.Klisović 2: 0 (21:06, 21:14)
K.Burić / A.Ćetojević – I.Šapina / D.Delić 0: 2 (10:21, 18:21)
We as a club, want to congratulate the boys first on their efforts, dedication and struggle, and the game shown. We can be proud that our club, and the city of Umag, the beachvolley cradle in Croatia, has such a young couple who will certainly have plenty to show.
Guys congratulations to you once again on behalf of the club. For us, you were the tournament winners today.
Bravo!!
