While GM Adi Lami and the owner Giannetti went to the Volley Market in Bologna and sealed the roster and took care of the bureaucratic aspects, coach Fabio Soli was in Omaha, Nebraska, where he took part in the World Grand Prix scheduled from 22 to 26 July. He is indeed the assistant of Bonitta with the women’s Italian national team. Italy had missed out on the 2014 edition while it finished fifth in 2013. The last time it finished on the podium was in 2010 (third in Ningbo, China). Italy gathered two losses and one win so far with Japan and the Olympic champs of Brazil still to play.
