Their momentum changed after their bye in the middle of the season, when they started to get a few consistent wins on the board, including a double victory over the seven-time AVL Champions, the Melbourne Vipers.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">Scraping into the final four with only one point more than NSW in fifth place, QLD were the underdogs of the finals, but their grit and determination saw them knock off the top seeds from Victoria in the semifinals, and hold out Western Australia for two hours and ten minutes to claim the win 3:2 (25-20, 25-27, 25-21, 17-25, 10-15).<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s2\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/ClvDWO5qI5p\/\">https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/ClvDWO5qI5p\/<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">QLD captain Kylee White said she was speechless after her team\u2019s victory.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">\u201cIt\u2019s an honour to win gold and I think we really worked hard for it, especially to come from being fourth and fifth on the ladder to now winning, it\u2019s been an incredible season and I don\u2019t have words for what this means,\u201d White said.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">\u201cWA are such a consistent team that it\u2019s quite scary going up against them, but we kept our composure and kept playing our game which got us through in the end.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">Looking back on the season, White said she was really proud of how far the team has come.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">\u201cAt the start of the season, we were just going through the motions, because it\u2019s such a high level competition, I think other teams were just rattling us a bit. We finally found our groove and when it counted we really stepped up and that got us to the end.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-102528\" src=\"https:\/\/asianvolleyball.net\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/b-2-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" srcset=\"https:\/\/asianvolleyball.net\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/b-2-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/asianvolleyball.net\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/b-2-580x387.jpg 580w, https:\/\/asianvolleyball.net\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/b-2-500x333.jpg 500w, https:\/\/asianvolleyball.net\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/b-2-600x400.jpg 600w, https:\/\/asianvolleyball.net\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/b-2.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">The gold medal is not just a special moment for the players, but also for QLD Coach Terry Rudder, who is in his debut season as an AVL coach.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">\u201cI\u2019m shocked, we barely snuck into the final four, so to get the win is pretty special,\u201d Rudder said.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">\u201cAs a player, I got to that stage two or three times in my career, and never once walked away with a gold medal, so it\u2019s actually pretty special to walk away with a gold today.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">\u201cFrom the start of the season, we had a very clear style of play that we wanted to play.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">\u201cThe hard part was actually evolving it, so the longer the season went, the better it worked out for us and we managed to fall into some faith and belief and trust in that system and at the end of the day, that obviously played out.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">Earlier in the day, Melbourne Vipers won the women\u2019s bronze medal, defeating Adelaide Storm in four sets (20-25, 25-19, 25-22, 25-17).<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-102529\" src=\"https:\/\/asianvolleyball.net\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/c-1-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" srcset=\"https:\/\/asianvolleyball.net\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/c-1-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/asianvolleyball.net\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/c-1-580x387.jpg 580w, https:\/\/asianvolleyball.net\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/c-1-500x333.jpg 500w, https:\/\/asianvolleyball.net\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/c-1-600x400.jpg 600w, https:\/\/asianvolleyball.net\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/c-1.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">Adelaide came out firing in the bronze medal match, to claim the first set, but the minor premiers from Victoria switched the momentum in the second, and the Storm couldn\u2019t get their lead back.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">Outside hitter Gwen Thornton was a stand out for the Vipers, hitting high and finding the gaps through Adelaide\u2019s defense.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">A bronze medal victory was a fitting final game for Vipers captain Kelly Lean, who recently announced she would be retiring following the AVL season. Lean has played more than 70 games for her country, leading the Volleyroos as captain since 2019.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">\u201cI think everyone thinks it\u2019s a sad moment, but I feel a lot of relief, happiness and excitement,\u201d Lean said following her final professional volleyball game.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">\u201cI have a lot of things that I am excited to spend more time doing, but I don\u2019t want to shy away from volleyball, I want to do as much coaching as I can and see how I can help in a different way.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">\u201cBut today is just about the team, they\u2019ve just been the best team to finish with.

The girls have worked so hard, it\u2019s a big moment for me and Mon [Monique Stojanovi\u0107, who is also retiring after the season], but it\u2019s a big moment for the whole team to put on a performance like that.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p6\"><span class=\"s1\"><b>CANBERRA REIGN SUPREME IN MEN\u2019S AUSTRALIAN VOLLEYBALL LEAGUE<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-102531\" src=\"https:\/\/asianvolleyball.net\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/e-300x171.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"171\" srcset=\"https:\/\/asianvolleyball.net\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/e-300x171.png 300w, https:\/\/asianvolleyball.net\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/e-580x332.png 580w, https:\/\/asianvolleyball.net\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/e-500x286.png 500w, https:\/\/asianvolleyball.net\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/e-600x343.png 600w, https:\/\/asianvolleyball.net\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/e.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">After four years of minor medals, the Canberra Heat are bringing the Men\u2019s Australian Volleyball League (AVL) trophy back home to the ACT after defeating the Adelaide Storm in an epic five-set battle at Carrara Indoor Stadium on the Gold Coast.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">In a two-hour marathon that went down to the wire, it was Captain Andre Borgeaud\u2019s team who secured the win 3:2 (25-18, 21-25, 25-18, 23-25, 15-13).<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">\u201cIt\u2019s been a long time coming,\u201d confirmed Borgeaud. \u201cThere\u2019s a lot of relief at the end of it, and excitement, I feel speechless really.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">Borgeaud made his debut for the Heat as a 17-year-old in 2004, and 2022 marks his ninth season with the team, but the first time winning gold.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">\u201cWe\u2019ve been here so many times! Canberra won in 2011 and 2015 but for myself to finally get a win and at 35 is really exciting.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">\u201cMaybe we\u2019ll think about hanging up the boots eventually, but we\u2019ll give it six months and see,\u201d he joked.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s2\"><a

meant a lot to the team, especially to the Heat veterans who have a collection of silver medals at the hands of the Queensland Pirates over the past decade.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">\u201cIt really could have gone either way, it was such an exciting match and to have a fifth set go down to the wire like that with some massive plays, it\u2019s an excellent outcome for us,\u201d Hardy said.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">\u201cIt means a lot to our older guys who have gone through that period, often coming second, so there are some emotional guys in there who\u2019ve been on the receiving end, mostly from Queensland over that period of time, so they\u2019re really happy for this one.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">The Men\u2019s bronze medal match was a similarly extremely physical match, with the WA Steel denying the QLD pirates an AVL medal for the first time in eight consecutive years, winning 3:1 (26-28, 25-16, 26-24, 25-23) in front of a huge crowd on the Gold Coast.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-102532\"

game.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">Middle blocker Jos\u00e9 Mart\u00ednez, a Rio 2016 Mexican Olympian who has relocated from Victoria to live in Western Australia, was a
