Coach

In December 2010 Boris Denic started a really successful project: He lifted Slovenia’s very young but talented men’s national team back to elite level, where it had been in 2004, when it had won the European silver medal. Denic brought a huge number of players who had won several medals at youth and junior events and created a well-rehearsed mix of experienced and talented players. Slovenia came in sixth at the 2012 European Championship to reap rewards of their efforts surprising all experts by their modern high-speed play and brilliant technical skills. The way to the top had just started at that time: At the 2013 World Championship, Slovenia managed to reach the semi-finals for the first time ever but then unluckily lost their two final matches to host Spain and Croatia to rank fourth. At the 2015 World Championship, his last big tournament with Slovenia, they managed to eight place. In may 2015 ended his coaching the Slovenian national team.

From august 2016 he is a coach of the club Al Quiada in Qatar.
