Is there a smell of Gold for Gotland in the Volleyball tournament too?
Certainly for the Gotland Men's Team.
Maybe we can hope for a medal for the Gotland woman team, here beating Gibraltar. Favourites in volleyball for women are Saarema and Faroe Islands.
The Volleyball-stadium in the Visby Ice-hall(!) is certainly one of the hottest places in the Games. It is boiling with cheering and screaming supporters. Go there if you have a chance!
