Team captain Nadia Mossong is o a key player in the women’s national team. In the preparation games, she has been the driving force so far and she will definitely have a big role in the European Championship games (July 20-25).
„It is a big joy to finally play games with the national team again. We have the main players on board which is a great sign and has not always been the case in the past. We want to win the tournament and the gold medal, that is always the goal if you play a tournament against other smaller countries. However, we do not know a lot about our opponents so that it will be a very difficult challenge.”
Young players are entering the team which is also a good sign for the experienced player who finished her professional basketball career in 2020. „Our young players are very motivated and I think that we have a very good mix of experienced and young players on our roster. I try to take over the role of a leader in this group.“
