He will represent Ivan Zanettin’s backup, but – due to his temperament and desire to emerge – he is ready to do everything to earn himself more than just simple scraps of play.

The recently twenty-year-old Davide Diaferia is ready to be talked about even at EnergyTime Spike Devils Campobasso. After two seasons of cadettry with the Fenice Roma shirt, the two-meter opposite of San Giuseppe Vesuviano is ready to show off all his characteristics in the Serie A3 Credem Banca and capture consensus and attention from the rossoblù fans in the PalaVazzieri scenario .

«I come to Campobasso – he explains in his first words as a ‘little devil’ – with the desire to do well and the desire to help my teammates and to be able to support the cause to ensure that the club achieves its objectives and, because no, with the desire to take away some small, great satisfaction.”

Moreover – already in side-out volleyball, but even more so in that of the rally point system – the out-of-hand player is, by definition, the element with the greatest responsibility on his shoulders also because it is in his direction that the most complicated balls end up. «In my opinion – he replies – the opposite is the additional weapon».

You know well, Diaferia, how – in addition to the strict technical aspect – in the ‘Blue’ group of A3 the emotional impact will also be fundamental.

«We will be dealing with very hot pitches and it will be crucial to be well in the game. In the two away games in Campania, then, I will find many friends on the other side of the net, but, after the first serve, there will be no room for these feelings, but we will only think about doing the best for our team.”

«In general – indicates the side of the Campobassani – we will have to get the most in the internal matches, also trusting in the one who will be the extra man, that is the support of our public. This club is coming off a sensational last season and this should lead us all to give our best even more.”

Speaking about himself, Diaferia fits into the category of ‘ignorant opposites’. «Power is a fundamental key in my way of understanding the role, however, as the seasons pass, there is always the possibility of improving and refining the qualities of one’s shots, also exploiting other aspects».
