History

[edit]
First trophies of Trentino Club

Trentino Volley was founded on 23 May 2000;[3] and two days later, it purchased the rights to play in the Serie A1 (Italy's First Division) from Ravenna, that had retired due to financial problems. The club played its first Serie A1 match in Parma on 15 October 2000 against Maxicono Parma, and was defeated 3–0.[4] The first home match of the Trentino Volley was played on 22 October 2000 against Padova, and the home team came out victorious with a result of 3–2.[5] Trentino Volley are by far the most successful side in the history of the FIVB Volleyball Men’s Club World Championship, having won the title a total of four times. However, the Italian club, founded in 2000 and based in the city of Trento in the northeast of the country, only managed a bronze in 2013, were knocked out during pool play in 2014 (ending up 5th) and missed out on the 2015 edition of the competition. During its first two seasons, the team managed a tenth,[6] and a ninth[7] place finish at the end of the regular season.

Players acquired by the team in his first Italian Serie A years included Lorenzo Bernardi and Andrea Sartoretti. In the summer of 2007 Trentino Volley made substantial purchases, as part of a strategy that would focus on a young team with talented players, such as Serbian Nikola Grbić, Bulgarians Vladimir Nikolov and Matey Kaziyski and Italian Emanuele Birarelli. Itas Trentino Diatec ended the following regular season with a first-place finish, and stepped into the finals. On 7 May 2008 Trentino Volley defeated Piacenza 3–0,[8] to win its first national championship title, and gain access to the CEV Champions League 2008–2009.

Trento run undefeated in the pool stages, with a first-place finish in Group E. On 5 April 2009, at the O2 Arena in Prague, Trento defeated Iraklis Thessaloniki 3–1 in the final.[9] In 2009, the team flew to Doha (Qatar), to compete in the FIVB Men's Club World Volleyball Championship. On Sunday 8 November Trentino Betclic won the final, with a score of 3–0[10] against the Poles of Skra Bełchatów, and became FIVB Club World Champion. In 2010, it won the Italian Cup and then successfully defended its Champions League title with a 3–0 victory (25–12, 25–20, 25–21) over Dynamo Moscow.

Trentino retired NO.1 jersey for Matey Kaziyski after all the achievements he helped to make for the team. The President of Trentino Volley Bruno Da Re said that "it will no longer be used by any Trentino Volley player", "unless he (Matey Kaziyski) wants to come back to use it again".[11]
