The opening round of the new volleyball season indicated that the competition will offer both interesting and unpredictable matches, along with several convincing results.
Mladost recorded a straightforward win against newly promoted Veli Vrh, taking the match 3:0 (18, 21, 15) in 68 minutes. The visiting team managed brief leads early in the second and third sets, but the home side maintained full control throughout.
Dinamo achieved an identical result, defeating Ribola Kaštela 3:0 (20, 18, 16) in 73 minutes. After an even start, Dinamo established a lead midway through the first set and consistently extended their advantage in the following sets.
Nebo claimed a 3:0 (19, 14, 16) victory in Dubrovnik in just 55 minutes. The home team led only at the beginning of the opening set, after which the visiting side dominated until the end of the match.
In Karlovac, Kelteks suffered a 1:3 (25:15, 23:25, 20:25, 21:25) defeat against Osijek in a match lasting 117 minutes. Kelteks won the first set convincingly but was unable to sustain the rhythm as Osijek turned the game in their favor with consistent and composed play.
The most balanced encounter occurred in Kaštela, where Marina prevailed over Brda 3:2 (22:25, 25:20, 25:11, 19:25, 15:4) after 125 minutes of play.
