Lynne Beattie led her GB Woman’s team to an historic Olympic victory over African champions Algeria last night at Earls Court
Lynne said “”I feel absolutely amazing. To get a win at the Olympic games, from where this team has come from – we can be very proud of the result. Algeria came out fighting, but we showed a lot of character and resilience to come back and to win a fifth set at the Olympics is fantastic.”
The next game for the GB woman’s team is Wednesday 1st August.
Our adopted olympian Lynne Beattie, captain of the GB Woman’s Volleyball team, had an outstanding game in her first Olympic Games match against Russia on Saturday at Earls Court.
