The Orobiche are 5th in the standings with 6 points, have won their first two matches so far and last Sunday were defeated at home by Talmassons, Prosecco DOC Imoco Volley instead at the top with 12 points (one game up). Two former players on the court for Volley Bergamo, setter Roberta Carraro (setter product of the Gialloblù nursery, in the first team in 22/23) and opposing player Vittoria Piani, protagonist of last season’s “poker”. Six previous matches so far with all wins by Conegliano. Full team for coach Santarelli.
The match will be streamed live at www.volleyballworld.it, updates on social media (Facebook and Instagram) and post-match interviews on Imoco Volley’s YouTube channel.
STATEMENTS COACH DANIELE SANTARELLI
“The one with Bergamo will be another game not to be underestimated, they are an interesting team, they got off to a great start with two wins then they had a misstep on Sunday at home, but they are one of those teams that can bother anyone because they have significant attacking potential. They have changed a lot from last year, but they have already shown that they are a team equipped for good results. I ask my team to take another step forward compared to the last few outings, we will be at home after a while and I know there will be a lot of people there, this fills us with pride and we will try to entertain our audience. We have to eliminate the ups and downs and improve a lot in the ball change and point phase, I expect growth in this regard because the tour de force starts soon and we will have to be ready.
We have also included this week Zhu Ting who will therefore be available on Sunday, he is integrating very well with the rest of the team, with patience and great availability; obviously he is not yet at the top, but he is growing in condition day by day and for us he is a huge added value. So we are full and I will be spoiled for choice in deciding who to put on the field; this is great news for me and for my staff.”

PANTY: THE FIRST OFFICIAL MASCOT WILL BE A PLUSH “PANTHER” BRANDED TRUDI!
Thanks to the prestigious collaboration with Trudi, the celebrated Friulian company of toys and soft toys, one of the great seasonal novelties will be presented to the public on Sunday, as for the first time in its history Imoco Volley will have an official mascot, “Panty,” who will help enliven the pre and post-game and the game-breaking moments. A new attraction at Palaverde for adults and children, which thanks to the collaboration and quality of Trudi will certainly give an extra quid to the event-match. By Christmas then, to the delight of the Panthers’ fans and enthusiasts, a plush “Panty” in two versions (small keychain size and medium) will be available in the Imoco Volley fan shop at Palaverde and in the On Line store together with the Prosecco DOC Imoco Volley merchandising and game uniforms.
ULSS DAY AND SCREENING SENSITIZATION DAY
About 500 employees of the Local Health Unit will be present, thanks to the special agreement between the yellow-blue club and ULSS2, historically linked by a close collaborative relationship that is expressed in various activities during the season, the highlight precisely in October, prevention month, where the Panthers are testimonials in graphics and activities dedicated to raising awareness to carry out cancer screenings. FRECCIAROSA

Teams on Sunday will enter the official presentation with Frecciarosa jerseys, which they will then throw to the public, and the speaker will broadcast phonic announcements on the theme. SPONSOR DAY INDUSTRIAL FORNITURE MORO
Sunday’s sponsor of the day will be a company historically linked to Treviso sports and a jersey partner of the yellow-blue club since its early years. This year the “testimonial” with the personalized logo on the jersey is Khalia Lanier. Industrial Forniture Moro will “dress” the game on Sunday and award the MVP of the match with Bergamo.
