Bio
Raised in a family country house in a small town Ropazi in Latvia, Atvars has younger twin brothers who play handball. His decision to play volleyball came in Murjani Sports Gymnasium at age 14. Right after graduating high school, Ozolins played two seasons in Pärnu VK. He made his debut in the LAT national team in the summer of 2018. Main achievement so far is the ticket to EuroVolley 2021.
After a strong start of the tournament with a 3-1 win over Estonia, Latvia have then endured two disappointing 2-3 losses to Slovakia and Croatia, respectively. Today, they will try to challenge Germany, who are currently holding a strong second position in the pool. Despite their 1-3 loss to France on Monday, the team has been showing very confident performances in the tournament so far, and is definitely expecting to add another win today.

Match Report
Germany's serve is the weapon vs Latvia
Article
7 September 2021
Denys Kaliberda“Today, we were not as good as yesterday, we made too many mistakes and sometimes it was hard to keep the focus. But Latvia showed a really good performance today as well, it was not easy to play against them.”
Spiker of Germany
Avo Keel“It looks that with the pressure off, we can play some good Volleyball. The guys did a nice job today. We cannot be really satisfied with the reception, but in other elements we performed quite well I think.”
