He was asked several times during the season and even in the most difficult moments he always put his face to it. Then, he saw the work carried out rewarded by the results and therefore the sporting director of ErmGroup Volley Altotevere, Valdemaro Gustinelli, has the task of drawing up the balance of a year that until mid-December was the most complicated and from that moment the most beautiful and exciting of the three that the team played in the Serie A3 Credem Banca championship. Also because the play-off semi-final was the best goal achieved so far by the white and blue team. Gustinelli, we feel it is necessary to start with a general consideration. What kind of season was the one just concluded for ErmGroup Altotevere? “As I have said several times in other places, there is a lot of satisfaction for the work done and the results obtained. All this, combined with a renewed economic certainty and with the concrete feeling of having achieved a high-level corporate organization, pushes us to restart with great enthusiasm for the 2025/’26 season”. Any regrets for the epilogue of the play-offs? “Two weeks after game three with Sorrento, the exact same feeling remains: we badly exploited the opportunity that came to us in game one. In that circumstance, truly, the inertia of the match was on our side! Then we played a high-level game two at home, but in the “final”, apart from the first set, they were always superior”.
