Michieletto takes Volleyball back on RAI 2: challenge with continuous bumps with Chechi

After the European Senior title, the Under 21 World Championship and the Italian Supercoppa, Alessandro Michieletto achieved also…the television fame on RAI 2! The young wing spiker grown in the society of Trentino Volley has been indeed among the leading main character of the Italian program, “Il circolo degli anelli sotto l’albero”, which was aired live and in prime time Tuesday 21th December by the second channel of the state television.
The Christmas episode of the lucky format, which managed to have the attention of the viewers during Tokyo’s 2020 Olympics, wanted to celebrate 2021, the big Italian year of sport, in a non-conventional way. The program was directed by the new manager of RAI Sport, Alessandra De Stefano, with the participation of Juri Chechi and Sara Simeoni. Exactly the two Italian legends, together with Alessandro and Elisa Di Francisca, were the main characters of a nice and improvised two-on-two volleyball match that was played during the live recording in the studios of Corso Sempione in Milan, where the program was recorded. A special moment to pay tribute to the double European gold medal achieved by the national teams, that brought volleyball in every Italian house, confirming the great congeniality and solidarity of Alessandro Michieletto.
