Towards the 2024 CEV Champions League Final: all the Club numbers in the competitions
The countdown is ticking down to the 2024 CEV Champions League Final for Trentino Volley. On Sunday in Antalya (Turkey) the yellow-blue club will in fact play for the seventh time the match that awards the highest continental trophy, already won on three occasions.
The match on 5 May at the Sports Hall against the Polish Jastrzebski Wegiel team will mark the eighteenth time the club has taken part in a CEV competition, also taking into account the twelve previous appearances in the Champions League (six consecutive between 2008 and 2014 and then also those in 2016, 2018, 2020, 2021, 2022 and 2023), four in the CEV Cup (2005, 2015, 2017, 2019, with a victory in the last edition) and one in the Top Teams Cup (2005).
The album of memories linked to the CEV Champions League is full of truly epic pages: The first is the one linked to the evening of 5 April 2009 in Prague, when, against Iraklis Thessaloniki, the yellow-blue team won 3-1, conquering the title after overcoming Macerata in the semifinals in the tricolour derby and concluding the tournament with a clear path (12 victories on 12 matches played); The second was on 2 May 2010 and the clean sweep over Dinamo Moscow at the Atlas Arena in Lodz, while the third, absolutely unforgettable, was on 27 March 2011 and the 3-1 victory over Kazan in the final at the PalaOnda in Bolzano. That one in South Tyrol was the last final in the tournament won; then there was space for the silver medal in Poland in 2016, in Verona in 2021 and in Ljubljana in 2022; in the archives also a
third place, related to the 2012 edition.
