Poland won silver at the FIVB Volleyball Men’s World Championship in Japan last year

Andrea Anastasi’s team sealed silver at the FIVB Volleyball Men’s World Cup 2011 in Japan as well as bronze at the FIVB Volleyball World League and European Championships and now enter 2012 looking ahead to the London Olympic Games.

The ceremony was held at the organisation’s headquarters and, as usual, attracted a respectable group of past and present Polish sports stars.

Committee president Andrew Krasnicki opened proceedings with a speech which looked back at 2011 and ahead to the following 12 months.

Poland will be hoping to replicate the success of their gold-winning 1976 team later this year at the Olympic Games.
