After 14 years, French girls are again at the TOP of the world. Olivier Krumbholz in the meantime had a three years break caused by not so perfect atmosphere in the team, but after Alain Portes resigned at the end of World Championship 2015 under incomprehensible circumstances, experienced coach came back on the bench and made step back to the greatest.
After losing Olympic final in Rio, it was obvious that French girls are in the best possible hands…
The best non-European squad is South Korea on 13th place, while Japan left a good impression by winning 16th place.
