With Voynova on its side, the national team won one gold and one silver, and two bronze medals at the European Championships between 1954 and 1964.

At the 1959 World Cup, Voynova played an essential role in winning the bronze medal, finishing with an average of 13.1 points per game. Five years later, she is on top again, and with her help, Bulgaria won the bronze medal.
