SuperLega match against Ravenna on December 25th

New modification to the SuperLega Credem Banca schedule, due to the change in the dates of the continental Olympic qualifiers. For the first time, a Championship day will be set for Christmas.
To close the list of 12 participants in Tokyo 2020 the other continental competitions have been included in the calendar starting from January 6th (Asia January 7th, Africa January 6th, Norceca January 10th, South America January 8th), and the European Confederation has announced its qualification starting January 5th at Max Schmeling Halle in Berlin.
The day of December 26th, which opened the second round, is therefore necessarily anticipated to December 25th as the players selected for Serbia, France, Belgium, Slovenia, Bulgaria, Holland, Germany and the Czech Republic (together with their coaches) can be called by the federations to which they belong 10 days before the event, as required by international transfer certificates.
The match on the 26th of Decenber is therefore anticipated to the day of Christmas.The possibility remains for individual clubs to check with their foreign athletes if they will be called and if the respective national teams can expect the withdrawal starting from December 27th: the two opponents will then be able to decide to request the Lega Pallavolo to compete on the 26th .
On the fourteenth day of the regular season, the Itas Trentino will receive the visit of the Consar Ravenna to the BLM Group Arena; the match will then be played on Christmas day with time yet to be defined (probably 6.00 pm).
