CEV EuroVolley 2021 | Women
The golden trophy, including a wooden base, measures 74 cm and weighs 9.6 kilogrammes. It is handmade and its design reflects the modern, fresh and young CEV and EuroVolley brand. The making of the original trophy took as many as three months.
Martina Šamadan“We are very pleased that we have had the opportunity to present the trophy on the Heavenly Promenade. This moment will remain with us forever. The dream of every athlete is to lift such a cup and we feel much honoured that Croatia is one of the four hosts of this year’s EuroVolley Women. In the next three weeks we will continue with the preparations and we look forward to the European Championship.”
The images from the Heavenly Promenade will now travel across Europe. Upon their arrival, the Director of the Biokovo Nature Park Slavo Jakša and the Mayor of Makarska Zoran Paunović deserved a warm welcome to the players of Team Croatia, wishing them the best of luck and much success at the upcoming European Championship. A particularly emotional moment came when the women’s klapa Fjoret performed the Croatian anthem ‘Our Beautiful Homeland’.
The city of Zadar is the host of the EuroVolley 2021 Women Pool C, featuring, along with Croatia, the national teams of Italy, Belarus, Slovakia, Hungary, and Switzerland.
Daniele Santarelli“I am extremely honoured to promote EuroVolley in such a beautiful place. The final preparations are underway, and the team is making great progress. This championship is extremely important for us because we play at home and we want to deliver the best possible performance."
