After the well-deserved conquest of the second trophy of the season on the day of the Easter Monday holiday, the Del Monte® Supercoppa Serie A2, overcoming the Lombards of the Pool Libertas Cantù with the maximum difference, Tonno Callipo Vibo resumed training yesterday in view of the imminent start of the Post Season. A new chapter that will officially open next Sunday, April 16, at the “PalaMaiata” against Consar Ravenna (first serve at 18:00), which closed the regular season in eighth position, last useful for access to the Play Offs.
Last Monday, the Brazilian coach Cesar Douglas celebrated the 30th overall bench at the helm of the Giallorossi formation, with a more than positive progress report with 25 wins and 5 defeats (all away), placing himself in fourth place in the All-Time ranking of the coaches who led Tonno Callipo in the second national category (surpassed the current manager of the youth sector Nico Agricola, still at 29).
There is a lot of euphoria in the Giallorossi staff after having also lifted the second trophy of the season to the sky, as can be seen from the words of the vice president Filippo Maria Callipo: «It was the first A2 Super Cup that we won, and it is an even greater emotion for having managed to establish ourselves in a competition set up a few years ago. It was one of the goals we set ourselves at the beginning of the season and we are delighted to have achieved it».
The young and dynamic vice president carefully analyzes the season of his magnificent 14 players and his coaching staff: «So far we have played an over the top season, meeting all expectations, namely the success of the Italian Cup, the Super Cup and the first place in Regular Season. The Play Offs, as is known, are a separate tournament, where everything is condensed into just over 40 days, so we will have to concentrate right from the first obstacle represented by Consar Ravenna, the team that put us in the most difficulty in the course of the regular season. Our intention is to win back the Superlega».
