Mazzanti designed and started to use this coaching board while he was at the helm of Imoco Volley Conegliano and it is divided into 4 parts, Gian Luca Pasini, the journalist from „Gazzetta dello Sport“, explained in his blog:

  1. The wheel at the top right shows the rotation of Italy: outside are position numbers, while the triangles inside represent players, with the blue triangle representing the setter.
  2. The second wheel, on the left, shows something which is called the match-up: a system for evaluating all possible variations between two teams through the setter position. The goal is to calculate the possible block formations both of the opponents and Italy.
  3. In the colored boxes on the right, there is a summary of the types of all possible attacks of both the opposing team and the Italian team.
  4. On the iPad, in real time, the staff on the bench has the statistics that come from a statistician. On the second iPad that the staff of Mazzanti has on the bench there are the images of the game with a delay of 10-15 seconds compared to live.
