Everything is ready for the official start of the Calabrian volleyball expedition towards the prestigious Trofeo delle Regioni, which this year will see Sicily as the stage for the great celebration of Italian youth volleyball.
On Friday 12 June (at 7.00 pm) the setting of the Palazzetto dello Sport in Siderno will host the eagerly awaited presentation ceremony of the official shirts that the regional representatives, both male and female, will wear during the Regions Trophy competition scheduled in Sicily from 22 to 27 June.
Once again, Sensation Profumerie will link its name to this adventure, confirming itself as the main sponsor of the Calabrian Representatives after having already successfully branded the Calabria Cup in recent weeks. A winning synergy that demonstrates the closeness of the local entrepreneurial fabric to the healthy values of youth sport.
An important institutional parterre
The importance of the event and the social value that volleyball represents for the territory will be sealed by the presence of important institutional stakeholders. In fact, among others, interventions are expected from:
Mariateresa Fragomeni, mayor of Siderno;
Eulalia Micheli and Giovanni Calabrese, councilors of the Calabria Region;
Salvatore Cirillo, President of the Regional Council of Calabria;
Francesco Oliva, apostolic administrator of the Locri-Gerace diocese
Antonello Scagliola, president of the Italian Paralympic Committee (CIP) Calabria;
Walter Malacrino, regional president of Sport and Health;
Marco Mari, federal councilor of the Italian Volleyball Federation;
Domenico Panuccio, president of the Fipav Reggio Calabria territorial committee;
Carmelo Sestito, president of Fipav Calabria.
Their presence underlines the strong support of local and regional institutions towards the young athletes who will have the honor and burden of representing the whole of Calabria in a national-level showcase.
“This event – underlines Carmelo Sestito – is not just a sporting presentation, but the symbol of a Calabria that works as a team. Our boys and girls will bring to Sicily not only their talent, but the pride of an entire region.”
The appointment is therefore set for Friday 12 June at the Palazzetto dello Sport in Siderno. The press, fans and citizens are invited to participate to give the right energy and warm good luck to the young talents of Calabrian volleyball.
