While the anticipation for the prestigious sporting event grows, the vice president Filippo Maria Callipo has clear ideas on what the meeting to face will be: «We have reached the appointment that we had set ourselves at the beginning of the season and now the deed is missing the final. It’s all in our hands now.”
In the wake of one of the best seasonal home performances against the insidious Tinet Prata of Pordenone, the attention of the Vibonese team is oriented towards the preparation of the final act of the twenty-sixth edition of the Del Monte® Coppa Italia Serie A2 edition 2022-2023: the appointment is scheduled for Saturday 4 February at the “PalaMaiata” starting at 19:45.
The challenge played for the assignment of the tricolor cockade will pit the hosts of Tonno Callipo Volley Vibo Valentia against BCC Castellana Grotte, the two teams that finished at the “halfway point” in first and second place in the general ranking .
After signing the seventeenth victory out of 20 races played between the Italian Cup and the championship, the team led by the Brazilian coach Cesar Douglas eagerly wants to confirm its undisputed role as “first of the class” also on this occasion. Saturday’s takes on the characteristics of a unique event to all intents and purposes: for the first time the sporting competition that awards the tricolor cockade will take place in Calabria, in Vibo Valentia.
President Pippo Callipo’s Giallorossi will do their utmost to write another page of history and try to put the fourth trophy on the bulletin board after that of 2015-2016, 2014-2015 and 2002-2003.
The team led by Jorge Cannestracci, on the other hand, in its third season in Serie A2, won this trophy in the 2011–2012 season, beating the Crazy Diamond Segrate at the Andria sports hall at the end of four partials.
