Modena Volley’s 2025/2026 season officially begins tomorrow morning, Wednesday, August 20th, with photos, interviews, and the first workout in the weight room.
Free hitters Filippo Federici and Luke Christopher Perry, spiker Jacopo Massari, and middle blocker Luca Tauletta will begin training immediately. Several players from the yellow-blue Serie B will also be joining the team: setter Gabriele Spina, opposite hitter Charles Ajayi, spikers Gabriele Gatti and Rodolfo Bonavolta, and middle blockers Valerio Arletti and Alessandro Balatri.
Among the staff present at the PalaPanini since August 20th, Marco Lionetti stands out as Assistant Coach, replacing Nicolò Zanni, who has become the new coach of Modena Volley’s Serie B team. He will work alongside Roberto Ciamarra in this role. Lionetti reunites with coach Alberto Giuliani, whom he worked with in the summer of 2023 with the Turkish national team and then in Bulgaria, at Hebar Pazardzhik in the 2023/24 season. Coming off last season’s Serie A2 season with Saturnia Acicastello, Lionetti arrives in Modena to bring his extensive experience, first as a player, a career that began in 1996/97, and then on the bench, where he held various positions.
