by WoV

The Turkish national team is a squad that is improving rapidly. In Trieste, Turkey proved their strength with good results versus their Pool B contenders, including World No. 1 Brazil.

In 2013, Massimo Barbolini became head coach of the Turkish team. Barbolini had arrived in Turkey after a long and fruitful campaign with the Italian national team. He led the “squadra azzurra” to the Olympic Games (Beijing and London) twice, conquered the World Cup in 2007 and 2011 and a bronze medal at the FIVB World Grand Prix.

“When I became coach of the Turkish team, I tried to form a staff that could help building up a national community of volleyball coaches and trainers. That is why I did not bring an Italian coaching staff to Turkey what some other coaches had done in the past. I prefer to work with a local crew – for the respect of the country where I am working” said Barbolini.
