Scanzo Volley remains in Serie B: rights acquired after renouncing to A3

Scanzorosciate. The Scanzo Volleyball remains in Serie B. A few days after the announcement of the renunciation of the right to play in A3, won on the field last May 25th, the men’s volleyball team will be able to continue playing the championship it won in the edition concluded a few weeks ago.

“L’US Scanzorosciate Volleyball ASD announces that it has defined and acquired the rights to participate in the 2024/2025 Serie B championship” we read in a press release, “despite the painful renunciation of the A3 series achieved by winning the play-offs which would have brought the team, by regulation, to the starting line of the next tournament Cthe company has completed an operation that allows it to remain in the category in which it won the last three regular seasons.”

The decision not to make the jump in category was due to the lack of a stadium that follows the “stringent regulations” imposed by the League, which “prevented the options being considered by the club from being considered suitable. An activity that began well before the end of the regular season which had led to the a priori exclusion of the home structure as well as the Gorle and of They raise“, due to different problems relating not only to the capacity of the structures.

There was an agreement to move to Cisano Bergamasco (with synergy already defined together with Volleyball Cisano), but the League did not grant the exemption due to the “few centimeters for which the Cisa sports hall does not satisfy the requests in terms of height”. The deadline for submitting the documentation is set at 12pm on Monday 17 June: extremely tight deadlines. “It would in fact have been the PalaPozzoni to host the internal competitions and, through a collaboration that immediately created enthusiasm on both sides, simultaneously guaranteed the elimination of the multiple ‘barriers’ imposed by the regulation”, wrote the company in the official note released on Saturday (8 June).

“It wasn’t easy – explains the sporting director Marco Welcome – absorb the blow of the missed landing in A3. Above all because it is due to a restrictive regulation that we were called to respect and not to a will. This is why we had worked on several fronts to try to obtain an exemption in the plant Cisano Bergamasco especially because it would have been the first year in the third national category. We were not allowed to, we reluctantly respect the strict dictates of Volleyball League. However, we did not want to disperse the technical and above all human heritage built over these years and which reached its peak with the promotion. The desire now is to structure a relaunch discussion that will allow us to still be protagonists”.
