As they attended a press conference staged at the local Town Hall in Chania, the head coaches and captains of Greece’s national teams invited all fans to get together at the “Kladisou” sports hall this weekend to cheer for the home guys and girls in their last round of play for the prelims of the 2011 CEV Volleyball European League.
“We are pleased to be here in Chania for the last round of the European League” said captain Nikolaos Roumeliotis. “We have been playing with glowing hearts in the previous rounds and exploiting a unique chance for our young players to get more international experience. They need as much playing time as possible to improve their skills. I invite all Volleyball fans to come to the sports hall and support us as we try to clip two more wins against Austria”.
“I would like to combine the charm of Chania with some good games of my team” added head coach Alekos Leonis. “The positives I can eventually take from the last games in the European League will help me prepare the Olympic qualification coming up this fall. We expect quite many people to join us and see the matches with Austria”.
“I would like to invite the fans, young players, children with their parents to come and support us in the most difficult round of play as Serbia is definitely the strongest team of our Pool” singled out Nikoleta Koutouxidou. “So we all want to get some experience from these matches and of course possibly win”.
“Chania is one of the most beautiful places in Greece and we are happy to come here for our last matches in the European League” stated her mentor Dimitris Floros. “We will play a world-class team, Serbia, so this is a unique chance also for the local audience to watch some classy Volleyball”.
“We are here as we are pursuing our vision to promote and support Volleyball across the country” said Mr. Thanassis Rerras, Board of Administration member at the Hellenic Volleyball Federation. “That’s why we staged matches in Orestiada, Samos, Pyrgos, Xanthi and here in Chania. The island of Crete is simply wonderful and there we have quite many Volleyball clubs and players. Our national teams are here to display a great performance and so we want as many fans as possible to come to the sports hall and attend the games”.
“We are really glad to welcome our national teams but also the Volleyball players representing Austria and Serbia” stressed the Mayor of Chania, Emmanuel Skoulakis. “The matches will be played in a splendid sports hall and we are happy to stage a prestigious event like the European League here in Chania. I wish the very best of luck to all athletes”.
Mr. Dimitris Lipsakis, Vice Mayor of Chania, added: “It is a real honor for us to stage these games. We’ll do our best to deliver a good organization and make everyone feel at home. We support Volleyball and any sport which helps bring positive values to our kids and youth. I wish all teams the best and hope we’ll have many children with their parents attending the games to create a nice and friendly atmosphere”.
