CEV EuroVolley 2019 Men
Vienna, Austria, August 9, 2019. The Austrian men’s national team continued their preparations for CEV EuroVolley 2019 in Schladming, where they worked hard on their physical conditioning. After one intense week, head coach Michael Warm and his squad returned to the team’s training base in Steinbrunn.
“The players were much focused. In Schladming we were able to create the physical and mental fundamentals for the further preparation,” explained Warm.
On August 22, Team Austria will go to Istanbul to play two friendly matches against Turkey. Another two matches will take place one week later in Craiova against Romania. Captain Peter Wohlfahrtstätter and his teammates will finalise their preparations for EuroVolley in St. Pölten on September 5 and 6 by playing against North Macedonia.
Austria made it to the final round of the European Championship for the first time through qualification after co-hosting the event in 2011 together with Czech Republic. Michael Warm’s squad features in Pool B in Antwerp and Brussels, alongside home team Belgium, Germany, Serbia, Slovakia and Spain.
