Volleyball players take their best result since 1970 from the Philippines
Czech volleyball players did not win any medals at the World Championships in the Philippines. Even the fourth place is the greatest success of Czech volleyball since 1970, when the same position was occupied by the then Czechoslovak team. The Poles won a medal for the fourth World Championship in a row. The gold was defended by the Italians, who beat Bulgaria 3-1 in the final and were the overwhelmed Czech team in Saturday’s semi-final.
