FORMULA – Italian Cup Serie A2
The Del Monte Coppa Italia A2 will be played at the end of the Regular Season, and the 12 Serie A2 teams will participate (all with the exception of the two that will be relegated to Serie A3). It will be played in parallel with the Play Offs valid for promotion to the SuperLega Credem Banca. The five teams that finished from 8th to 12th place in the season, together with the three eliminated in the Play Off Quarter Final series, will play in the Round of 16, with the “two wins out of three” formula (14, 21, 28 April 2024). The four Clubs that pass the round will be paired in the Quarter Finals with the four Semifinalists of the Play Offs: two matches and the possible Golden Set (1, 5 May) will thus decide the four participants in the Final Four in Cuneo (11, 12 May) .
