After two years this small town will play host once again to some of the greatest Volleyball stars out there in CEV Volleyball Champions League, starting with a unique match whereby the home girls will play the defending champions of VakifBank TTelekom Istanbul.
After suffering two losses in the national league to Asystel Novara and MC-Carnaghi Villa Cortese, Norda Foppapedretti wants to get back on track by beating the Turkish side coached by Italian-born Giovanni Guidetti.
Libero Enrica Merlo (pictured) and wing spiker Francesca Piccinini will be part of the group after a break to cope with health problems that prevented them from joining the national team for the FIVB World Cup in Japan. “We hope to deliver a good performance, also to the delight of our fans” says head coach Davide Mazzanti.
