The seasonal debut in the SuperLega Credem Banca della Cucine Lube Civitanova is getting closer and closer, scheduled in the television advance on RAI Sport on Saturday 1 October (7 pm) at the PalaMazzola in Taranto with the Gioiella Prisma. In the penultimate week of the preseason, the red and white will clash for the first time since the resumption of work with other teams of the top flight. Today, in the meantime, Chicco Blengini’s men are back in the gym after a Sunday of rest. Simone Anzani and Fabio Balaso also joined the group. Fatigue returned for Ivan Zaytsev, who has resumed training normally, while Marlon Yant still has to respect a differentiated schedule. Alex Nikolov, absent, is busy with Bulgaria U20 in view of the European Championships.
The weekly calendar offers a joint open-door training session with Sir Safety Susa Perugia on Wednesday 21 September (5 pm) at the Eurosuole Forum. A friendly remake of the latest Scudetto Finals. The Italian champions, with some athletes not at their best, will host the Block Devils, returning from a targeted transfer campaign. The attitude and understanding of the group will count.
There is also expectation for the quadrangular tournament entitled “Volley Under the Mucrone”, an event scheduled at the PalaForum in Biella over the weekend with the participation of Cucine Lube Civitanova, Itas Trentino, Modena Volley and Vero Volley Monza. The semifinals will be held on Saturday 24 September, the first at 5 pm (Monza – Civitanova) and the second at 8 pm (Modena – Trento). The results of these matches will determine the finals of the following day, Sunday 25 September: 3rd / 4th place at 3pm and, subsequently, 1st / 2nd place. All in front of an even more festive venue for the possibility of hosting thousands of students for free in the stands. It is an event organized by the Biella Volleyball School, with the patronage of the Municipality of Biella and the Province.
