The 2011/12 ECLW runner-up SVNO STROCK is ready to improve itself by one step in the upcoming season which starts on Friday but Schwechat side will play their first game next Monday against UCAM Cartagena (August 24th 19.00 CET). Basic strategy remains the same to combine wunderkinds with experienced players. This time they will be supported by world`s no. 18 Sayaka HIRANO from Japan.

„Our team is composed by three experienced players (HIRANO BILENKO and EKHOLM) and four youngsters (ZHANG RAKOVAC KHETKHUAN and MIGOT) who need to fight for their places in the matches against the best ones” stressed WSA Women Head Coach Neven CEGNAR who has won 32 medals with his players at both World and European Championships. „Our goals in the upcoming season is not a good result „at any price” but to promote our basic work: development of both women`s and men`s players who train and work in the WSA. Regarding that we will try to reach as much as best possible result respecting help and investment of our actual and future potential sponsors.”

“We also wish to continue our work on affirmation of our Head Coach Tamara BOROS who has been working excellent more than three years in both WSA and SVNO STROCK. All of us from our CEO Martin SOROS to all other coaches are focused to help on this path. We are looking forward new challenges in the ECLW impatiently expecting our opening game against UCAM Cartagena. Our wish is to show part of everything I mentioned regarding our long term aims.”
