Coach Aljosa Kunac leads the Croatian women’s national team and Jadran Split.
A former player for Mladost, POSK, Kotor, and Szeged, as well as a 2007 World Champion with Croatia, Kunac made history in Split as the coach of an incredibly young Croatian National Team that finished in the top eight for the first time since the competition was increased to twelve teams.
He was the assistant coach until this summer, when he replaced Mia Simunic, whose focus was on the younger teams.
Aljosa Kunac’s Top 5 of 2022
1. Eleni Xenaki (GRE)
Greece National Team Player/Club: Olympiacos /Position: Centre-forward
She is a left-hander and the best player. Playing with a smile and I enjoy watching her.
2. Bea Ortiz (ESP)
Spain National Team Player/Club: Sabadell / Position: Driver
She plays on the left and all directions they finish on her. She is good in defence.
3. Eleftheria Plevritou (GRE)
Greece National Team Player/Club: Olympiacos/ Position: Wing
She is excellent at organising the team. She is good in defence and she has a good shot. Everything Greece does goes through her
4. Dafne Bettini (ITA)
Italian National Team Player/Club: Ekipe Orizzonte / Position: Driver
So young but so strong already. She is mentally strong, and plays an excellent defence.
