  • There's almost no one in the crowd,it's Thursday but still... Perugia only follows their men's team

    You should know very well that women's volleyball in Italy is just an addiction, unless we talk about historical places where there's no men's volleyball or high level football, like it was for Bergamo (since Atalanta is one of the best team from Serie A, Bergamo - the best women's volleyball club ever - started losing any appeal, sponsors and almost disappared) and it's now for Novara (which disappared when - 2011-12 season - the football team of the city was playing Serie A). This is why Imoco has been one of the smartest club among all: they moved from Zoppas Arena in Conegliano to PalaVerde in Villorba, which used to be the home of one of the strongest men's volleyball club ever, Sisley Treviso, in order to inherit their fans (one of the biggest fanbase in Italy) in a city where football is just a second choice and other 2 big sports club disappared (basketball) or lost appeal and got relegated (rugby).

  • Women's volleyball can't complain about audience in arena. I am not talking about important matches.

    E.G: Busto- Chieri 2480.

    Casalmaggiore - Bergamo 2000

    Monza - Bergamo 2000

    Cuneo - Chieri 2000

    Novara and Conegliano always above 2500.

    In Europe is hard to find these numbers.

    Of course men's volleyball has different figures.

  • True Conegliano has so big attendce every match. Almost always around 4000...

  • I think a big problem is that some of the arenas are just too big (Perugia, Firenze,...). And playing in an arena without atmosphere makes it even harder to attract more spectators.


    I really like the relatively small German arenas (1500-3000 seats) which are filled more than 50 % most of the time, and often more than 75%.

  • Actually PalaBarton is one of the smallest volleyball arenas in both men's and women's leagues. When Sir Safety reaches the play-off finals, they need to add a removable staircase. As I said, where there's high level men's volleyball or soccer, women's volleyball is just an addiction.


    For example Monza reduced the men's team budjet in order to invest in the women's team more, so the appeal and crowd is growning for them and getting smaller for the boys. Cuneo is just back with the men's team, in Serie A2; if they get promoted to Superlega, women's team would be in real troubles. The soccer club of Cuneo disappared this year, while the one from Monza plays just in Serie C (third division).

  • Ahhhhh Can't wait for today match between clash of Titans, I really hope we will watch high level volleyball even though Novara has big problems with injuries :D


    Is it match broadcasted on Rai Sport?

  • Based on the warming-up it seems that Mlakar is back from her injury.

  • Oh, I was getting used to see Novara without Opp.. bummer :P

    They don't start with her and I'm not surprised. With Di Lullio as opposite Vasileva doesn't have to receive and they can involve the middles a lot.

  • Link??


    Folie starting the match :super:


    Still noone without stream?

  • Great start for Imoco! Especially Egonu and Folie are playing good. Next to that Sylla receiving is really stable so far.

  • I can't believe their is no any live stream. DISASTER. I hate this, i never watched less matches than this season:cursing:

  • A lot of errors now for Conegliano in reception and attack, especially Sylla and Hill.

  • And Novara take second set 25:23 Oh Godd Why can't I watch it :(
