Finland have so far played only two times in the European Championship, doing so in 1977 and in 1989, finishing in 12th place on both occasions. Finland have participated only once in the World Championship, in 1978, when they ended the tournament in 21st place. During the last three years, Finland have played in the European League, claiming the silver medal in 2017, and finishing 4th and 7th in 2018 and 2019, respectively.
Tapio Kangasniemi“After a 30-year-long break, we are back at the Women’s European Championship, which is a very important and big step for women’s and girls’ Volleyball in Finland. These games are a great opportunity for our whole team to show what we are capable of to the whole European Volleyball family. The results will come after a successful and intensive training period, but of course, in elite sport we always want to win. As a coach, I especially want that the whole team enjoys the experience."
