Luka Slabe takes charge of the ACH Volley LJUBLJANA – Volleyball News
After working under the leadership of Serbian coach Igor Kolakovic for several years, the Slovenian men’s volleyball team ACH Volley LJUBLJANA will come under the command of native mentor Luka Slabe. The President of the club Rasto Oderlap recently confirmed

The contract of the former coach Kolakovic was terminated at the end of current season and ACH Volley Management was in search of the right person to assign the influential role of head coach. After sifting through quite a few applications and a strict evaluation,
the name of Luke Slabe came on top as the most suitable person for the position of ACH Volley mentor.
Previously, he worked with the teams of UKO Kropa and Calcit KAMNIK and led one of them to the final of Slovenian national Cup.
Slabe expressed delight about the opportunity of working with ACH Volley. He thanked the management board and shared his thoughts in the following manner, “This is definitely the strongest Volleyball side here in Slovenia and one of the best in Europe as
well. It is just a dream for any Slovenian coach and many foreigners to guide this team. This cooperation with ACH Volley represents a challenge and at the same time, a unique opportunity and privilege for me.”
He further added, “I know the club has set ambitious goals and our fans have got very high expectations. We definitely want to re-assert our supremacy in Slovenia, retain the title in the Middle European League and go as far as possible in the next edition
of the CEV Volleyball Champions League.”
The roster of ACH Volley for the 2012/2013 season will be finalised in coming May. Slabe will have big responsibility on his shoulders to choose the best from the pool of players. However, he eagerly expressed his urge to work with the team and help them
catching the limelight.
ACH Volley Presdient Oderlap believes in the abilities and potential of Slabe. He has high hopes that the team will do well under the command of new coach.
