VolleyLuxembourg wins the Novotel Cup
The Luxembourg teams won the men’s and women’s gold medals during the tournament organized in La Coque.
Luxembourg had a perfect weekend at the Novotel Cup. For the return of the international competition organized at La Coque after two years of cancellation, the men as well as the women won their three matches against Ireland, England and the U20 team of Germany.
The men’s team didn’t even drop a single set, getting rid of the young Germans in their last game on Sunday (25-21, 25-15, 25-20). This is the fourth time she has won the gold medal in 17 editions of the men’s tournament.
Women also at the party
This successful weekend confirms the progress of the Grand Ducal training last year, even without the executives Mateja Gajin and Philippe Glesener. She will again aim for the highest positions in the European Small States Volleyball Championship.
The women’s national team also won the trophy, allowing the Grand Duchy to achieve the double as in the last edition in 2020. Carla Mulli’s partners won their three matches against Ireland (3-0), England (3-0) and the German U19s (3-1).
