Just defeats for the disabled Lycurgus from Groningen in a training campaign against strong foreign volleyball teams
Samin Lycurgus’s volleyball players from Groningen have been unable to win their matches in the training campaign in recent days.
For example, SVG Lüneburg in Germany was twice as strong. The team, in which former Lycurgos player Auk van de Kamp, who moved to Italy, played until this season, lost both matches 4-0. After that, coach Arjan Taij’s men participated in a tournament in the Czech Republic. Lycurgus found themselves empty-handed after the matches against VK Dukla Liberec and VK Karlovarsko, with a 3-0 loss each time and a 2-1 defeat against AERO Odolena Voda.
Coach Teague doesn’t have all his players yet
The Groningen team faced strong opponents and was not yet able to play with its strongest squad. For example, Libero Jeffrey Klok is still missing in Lycurgus. He is trying to get an Olympic ticket with the Dutch national team. American Kyle McCauley has just returned to the squad after an intense weeks spent with the US Under-23s. He hasn’t been able to play yet. Cal Fisher is on his way back from meniscus surgery, and the other players have yet to reach peak fitness.
Last practice match at home against Helios Grizzlies
Lycurgos will conclude his training and pre-season campaign on Friday and Saturday with matches in Groningen against Helios Grizzlies from Giessen, Germany. This team plays in the German League.
