President Massimo Righi, the Board of Directors, all the clubs, and the staff of the Lega Pallavolo Serie A express their deepest condolences for the passing of Alex Zanardi, an extraordinary figure in Italian and international sport.

A symbol of determination and resilience, Zanardi was an authentic example of courage and fortitude. After his career in motorsport and the tragic accident of 2001, he embarked with extraordinary tenacity on a new path in Paralympic sport, winning four gold medals and two silver medals at the London 2012 Paralympic Games and the Rio 2016 Paralympic Games.

His story, universally recognized as a testament to tenacity and the ability to overcome any obstacle, will remain a guiding light for present and future generations.

The entire Lega Pallavolo Serie A extends its deepest condolences to his family and loved ones.
