There’s a gesture that’s now repeated like a secular ritual. The ball skimming the ceiling of the PalaCalafiore, the roar rising, and then him. With his clenched fist raised to the sky, the eyes of someone who’s never satisfied, the face of someone who has transformed anger into art and determination into spectacle.

That snapshot, taken and re-recorded dozens of times, is no longer just a photo. It’s a historical document. Because Domenico Laganà, lifting one trophy after another, isn’t simply winning matches. He’s writing, point by point, the most fascinating chapter in Reggio Emilia’s sport in recent years.

And, by extension, an indelible page in the recent history of the Italian volleyball team, chasing one record after another.

The news, in the already heated air of this summer reminiscent of redemption, is official. For many, it may seem trivial, especially since the Captain was present at the latest press conference to present the season ticket campaign. Domotek, however, wants to shout it out, with strength and determination: for the fourth consecutive year, Domenico Laganà will be the Amaranth leader. On and off the field. A seal that isn’t just contractual, but a blood pact with an entire city, with a community, with a hungry people.
