«It will be stimulating, fun, enjoyable: a party for everyone. The volleyball party ». The words of the general manager of Da Rold Logistics Belluno, Franco Da Re, introduce the most electrifying appointment of the pre-season: because tomorrow (Friday 9, 6 pm), Itas Trentino will arrive at the Spes Arena. Yes, the team that, for years, has been sailing at full speed on the parquet floors all over Europe and, in Italy, is fighting for the Scudetto.
«From a technical point of view – continues the general manager – breaking the ice against Monselice last Saturday was important. Now, with Trento, the stimuli will certainly not be lacking. It is true that their national teams will not be there, but it is equally true that they have at least four, five athletes of absolute depth and a series of high-level “youngsters” ». Among these, also a Belluno like Alessandro Bristot: “We are happy for the opportunity to compete with opponents of a similar caliber. I am also confident that we can have a good race. And, as far as Alessandro is concerned, it will be a pleasure to have him with us: a great emotion also for his father Paolo, who is in charge of our youth sector ».
The team have already given good answers, in their absolute debut in Schiavonia: «The proof offered by the collective – resumes Franco Da Re, who tomorrow will face his brother Bruno, president of Trentino Volley – was satisfactory. We faced a sextet that has more proven mechanisms than ours and stings at the service. At first we suffered a bit from their serve, but then we shook off the rust and managed to deliver a decent volley. ” There were pleasant surprises: «Starting with the two young central players, Stufano and Gustamacchia. Without considering Galliani and Guolla: they had a very good impact. In short, there is still a lot to fix, but the sensations are positive “.
And tomorrow, everyone at the Spes Arena: admission is free.
