Catia Pedrini, president of Modena Volley, said to volleyball.it that her club won't be playing in Champions League anymore, till she's the president.
Unless a sponsor covers the entire budjet for the competition, the club isn't intrested anymore on playing the cup, since it is just a waste of money. In her opinion Champions League is anachronistic.
This season is their last chance to win the cup for Bruninho and company.
Frankly, I grow up in a period in which the REAL champions league was the italian title "scudetto" and still (despite our league is not the NBA of volleyball anymore) I consider more important to win Serie A1 (or at least to be competitive) than Champions League. I still remember when I was a child that I used to consider European cups as dangerous (risk of injuries etc.) and useless. Therefore, if we''ll leave CL next year it would not be a tregedy for me. I hope to find a sponsor, but without it, I don't mind so much: I want to win Serie A1, which for me remains the most prestigious title in volleyball clubs' world
