The women of TI-volley Innsbruck won the Supercup of the Austrian Volley League (AVL) and thus dethroned defending champion Steelvolleys Linz-Steg. The local heroes prevailed on Monday in the Olympiahalle Innsbruck in an exciting exchange of blows 3:2 (-16,24,22, -23,14) against the triple winners of the past season. In the men’s category, Hypo Tirol won the Supercup with a clear 3-0 win against Union Raiffeisen Waldviertel.

“The joy about the first title in the club’s history is huge,” said TI volley chairman Michael Falkner on ORF. “The new signings were the right choice. The mood in the team is very good. It will certainly be a very exciting championship.” A little later, the favored double winner Hypo Tirol clearly won against the Waldviertel team 3-0 (23,15,22). Last year, the Northmen from Lower Austria won the Supercup premiere, while the Tyrolean volleyball team won the championship and the cup.

“We are happy to have won the title in front of a great crowd at home,” said Hypo captain Niklas Kronthaler. His coach Stefan Chrtiansky was also pleased. “I’m satisfied. It was important for the team to start positively,” said the coach, whose team, unlike the Waldviertel team, will start the new season almost unchanged. The two leagues start the new season on Saturday.
