In CEV Champions League Pool B, with Cucine Lube Civitanova, Tours Vb, Izmir and Sir Sicoma Monini Perugia, CEV decided to set the bubbles in Tours, France, 8th/10th december, and in Perugia 9th/11th february.

Cucine Lube Civitanova Sport Director Giuseppe Cormio said: “we are disappointed with the decision of CEV to leave us outside the organization of the bubbles. We are the only italian team without a bubble at home, despite we are the defendic champions. We presented to CEV a detailed purpose of bubble, but they decided to go with a draw. At this time, hoping the situation wi improve, will be difficult for someone to force us to go in France”.
