On Saturday against Padova the 800th official match of Trentino Volley

After the away match in Verona that brought a very important point in the rank of 2018/19 SuperLega Credem Banca, Itas Trentino is ready to turn page and focus on the next match, scheduled on Saturday at BLM Group Arena. On February 23rd at 6pm the World Champions welcome Kioene Padova for the early match of the 22nd match of regular season broadcast live on RAI Sport +.
The team will train on Wednesday afternoon in preparation for the match, with a weight session first, followed by a full court training with technique and tactics. The match is curiously and statistically important as Trentino Volley will play the official match number 800 in almost twenty years of history of the Club.
