Bundesliga - Dresden volleyball players sign Victoria Demidova

Dresdner SC, a volleyball team in the German Bundesliga, announced another new signing for the upcoming season. The six-time German champion signed Russian outside hitter Victoria Demidova.

The native of Moscow is the seventh new signing for the Dresdner women after Emma Clothier (USA), two Slovenian national players Eva Zatkovic and Lorena Lorber Fijok, DSC returnee Patricia Nestler, Swiss national player Julie Lengweiler, and Latvian national player Marta Levinska.
