The Del Monte® Boy League returns after four years of absence (the last edition dates back to 2019, with Itas Trentino as the winner), and it does so in great style. Four groups of four teams, four different venues (Trento, Perugia, Modena and Cantù), and for the first time the qualifying phase of the Under 14 Championship organized by Lega Pallavolo Serie A will be played at the PalaFrancescucci in Casnate with Bernate. The teams participating in Group B are the hosts of Pool Libertas Cantù, Puliservice Acqua S. Bernardo Cuneo, Gamma Chimica Brugherio and Monge Gerbaudo Savigliano, who will play a round-robin format with one-way best-of-three matches set. The top two classified will qualify for the Final Eight, which will be played from 24 to 26 May 2024.
“It is a great satisfaction for us – says President Ambrogio Molteni – to be able, with the patronage of the Municipality of Como, which we sincerely thank, to organize a concentration of the DelMonte® Boy League at the PalaFrancescucci, a mini youth tournament between Serie A youth teams Credem Bank. This is the first time in our history that this event has been held, and therefore we hope for its positive success.”
