An adventure born from friendship and built on true team spirit. The members of the Cesena Volley +56 team left for the IVVA tournament in Milan, true volleyball veterans who managed to deservedly reach the coveted final, scheduled for tomorrow afternoon. After having outclassed their rivals in their group (Switzerland, Slovakia and Spain), the Cesena team prevailed over the Italian National Over 56 team in the quarter-finals, before overcoming Slovenia in the semi-final.
In this afternoon’s match they will face Hungary. A few days ago the team was received by the municipal administration. In particular, it concerns a delegation made up of the coach Gabriele Gozi, the deputy Luigi Pedrelli and the players Graziano Zaghi, Roberto Stella, Beppe Saragoni, Raffaello Ricciotti, Daniele Muccioli, Maurizio Graziani, Paolo and Sandro De Angeli, Enrico Biguzzi, Tarquinio Battistini, Nicola Battistini, Oscar Mazzotti, Raffaele Franzoni, Danilo Mastrocinque. The IVVA final is confirmation of the excellent work done so far. Thirty participating nations, around a thousand athletes on the field and four sports facilities and arenas involved: these are the numbers that revolve around the IVVA “Veteran Volleyball Tournaments-Age is no limit” which this year, for the first time, will be held in Italy, in Milan.
Promoted by IVVA – Veteran Volleyball Association, the association chaired by Adam and Přemysl Kubala which brings together amateur and former professional players who make volleyball and sport a philosophy of life, and IBLOCK BVC Beach Volley Club Milano (local host), the tournament it attracted thousands of athletes from all over the world.
