Due to a global IT systems outage that paralyzed airports, the Serbian national team will not participate in the friendly tournament in Gdańsk starting today. The event will feature national teams from Poland, Japan, and the United States.
Despite efforts by the Polish Volleyball Federation (PZPS) to find a replacement team currently training in Europe, no suitable substitute was found. Today, the Poland vs. Japan match will proceed as planned. The Poland vs. USA match will also proceed as scheduled on Sunday.
Serbian Team Unable to Travel
The Serbian men’s senior team, led by Igor Kolaković, was initially scheduled to depart for Gdańsk for their final pre-Olympics test but could not travel due to the aviation blockade.
