The Bulgarian presence among the top scorers in the French League A continues to be more than impressive. After the completion of the 11th round, two Bulgarian nationals are in the top 10 scorers, with one of them firmly in the top three.

Antov  stability and class at Tourcoing

Venislav Antov occupies 3rd place in the scorers' ranking with 225 points from 11 matches and 42 sets. The opposite hitter for Tourcoing continues to be the leading offensive figure for his team and demonstrates high-level consistency.

In a match from the last, 11th round, Tourcoing defeated Plessis-Robinson away, and Antov contributed 15 points to the victory, once again being among the most reliable scorers for his team.

Garkov  among the best despite Saint-Nazaire's difficulties

The other Bulgarian in the top ten is Vladimir Garkov, who holds 9th position with 175 points from 11 matches and 43 sets. The outside hitter for Saint-Nazaire continues to be a key figure for his team, despite the team's inconsistent results.

In the 11th round, Saint-Nazaire lost at home to Paris, with their attack leader Vasily Molotkov, and Garkov finished the match with 8 points, added to his overall tally.

The fact that two Bulgarians are among the top 10 scorers in one of Europe's most competitive championships is a clear indicator of the high individual level of the Bulgarian volleyball players. Particularly impressive is Venislav Antov's position, as he directly competes with established names and foreign stars in the French League A.
In the upcoming 12th round, Tourcoing hosts Cannes, while Saint-Nazaire visits Narbonne.

Given their current form, both Antov and Garkov have every prerequisite to maintain their position among the top scorers until the end of the regular season.
