The Argentine Seniors' Men Team coached by Javier Weber returned to training three days after celebrating its qualification for the 2012 Olympic Games in London. This time, the team trained at Cenard facilities during the afternoon, already thinking on the next very demanding international competition, the most important annual men world tournament, the FIVB World League that starts end of May, that is in 10 days. On Thursday the team will receive the Media at 11.00 at Club Ciudad de Buenos Aires and in the afternoon, at their training at Cenard facilities.

First training after qualifying for London

With all its players but Luciano De Cecco, with a light bad feeling, the team started its way to the next competition with little rest and no time to enjoy returning to the Olympic Games. The team goal is to qualify at least, as last year for the FIVB World League semi-finals (in Poland) when it finished in the best historical place, fourth.

This season with the new formula due to the Olympic Games, the FIVB World League Intercontinental Round will last only four weekends, playing round robin, all against each other.

Only six teams qualify (it changed from eight) for the Final Round, Argentina stands in Pool D playing against Bulgaria (organizer of the Final 6), Portugal and Germany.
