SC "Balta" — National team of Ukraine U-15 3-0 (25:22, 25:23, 25:6)

The volleyball players of "Balta" won the second victory at the stage for 5-7 places in the championship of Ukraine for the 2022/23 season. Today's game against the blue-yellows was more successful for Serhii Koltsov's players than against Halychanka-ZUNU: they made fewer mistakes and triumphed with an "easy" score on the scoreboard.

It was the young players that controlled the situation on the court in the first minutes of the meeting — 5:7, 8:10. However, a series of own errors on serves somewhat slowed down this passion of young athletes. Meanwhile, the Balta team took full advantage of the situation and seized the initiative — 14:11. Time-outs and line-up rotation from Anastasia Kotlyarenko almost leveled the situation (22:21), but the end was in favor of their opponents anyways — 25:22

The next segment in terms of the development of events resembled the previous one. It was the blue-yellow team that took the lead at the beginning — 1:4. On the other hand, on the equator, the representatives of Odesa increased their actions over the net and changed roles with their rivals - 14:12. The U-15 team found the strength not only to equalize parity but also to regain the lead: Uliana Yastrub was successful in the attack - 19:20. Comparing this set with the previous one, it can be stated that Koltsov's team once again succeeded better in the final rallies - 25:23.

The third set began with an incredible spurt of Balta — 8:0. In the end, it became decisive, because the national team U-15 could not recover from it - 25:6. As a result, "Balta" with two victories and five points took the overall fifth place in the current season of the Super League-Dmart.
