Trento, 19th September 2017

After thirty-three days of training, in which there have been also two joint training with Bolzano and Verona, Diatec Trentino finally debuts in the first match of the season. Tomorrow night, Wednesday 20th September, at PalaTrento starting from 20:00 (free entry) the yellow-blues will face the Japanese of the JT Thunders of Hiroshima in a friendly match that has several points of interest.
The audience of Trentino in fact, will have the possibility to see the majority of the new faces of the pink team entrusted to Angelo Lorenzetti, who will check the physical and technical conditions of the 9 players at his disposal who will face an opponent that has already played two friendly matches last week in Padova (lost 1-3) and in Verona (2-2). “We know that we don’t have a good rhythm in the game yet, but at the same time we want to show what we  can already do as a team - has said the Italian coach - . The test with JT Thunders will surely give positive and negative aspects; we are curious to know how is our training going, and we want to gather as many indications as we can, to use in view of the next days of training”. The players will be: the lobber Partenio, the opposite Teppan, the spikers Cavuto and Kovacevic, the Middles Eder and Zingel, and the Liberos Chiappa and De Pandas, there will be also the young Leoni, Michieletto, Pizzini and Poggio that have done the first period of training with the team. The Slovenian Kozamernik will not play in the match because he’s recovering from the ankle injury got during the European tournament.
The name of the Australian Edgar is definitely the most distinguished in JT Thunders of Hiroshima, team that plays in the most important Japanese tournament and that has won the last two editions of the Kurowashiki Cup (one of the most important events in Japan). But in the team, directed by the Serbian Veselin Vukovic there are also good players as the spiker Yako and the lobber Fukatsu.
The match will be commented in real time on www.trentinovolley.it : the official site of the Society of Trener street will stream every set on its homepage in live and will comment each one after its conclusion. Real-time updates will also be posted on the official Facebook and Twitter profiles of the yellow-blue team.
