Antonina Zetova and the members of the U18 women’s national team have been awarded as the Best Coach and Best Team in Bulgaria for 2024. They became European champions in that age category last summer in Romania and received their awards after winning an annual poll involving sports media from across the Balkan country. The ceremony was attended by the President of Bulgaria, Rumen Radev.

“It is a historic achievement not only for youth Volleyball,” said Zetova. “In an Olympic year and with so many medals, becoming the best coach shows how great an influence team sports have. Volleyball is the most social and most successful sport in Bulgaria.”

Since the end of 2024, Zetova has been the coach of the women’s ‘senior’ national team of Bulgaria.
