Various Italian sports clubs and leagues are commencing their new competitive seasons across multiple disciplines. In volleyball, SuperLega teams are progressing through pre-season preparations. Rana Verona secured a 4-1 test match victory against Union Raiffeisen Waldviertel, marking the first official appearance under Coach De Cecco and featuring new addition Paul Buchegger. Cucine Lube Civitanova has completed the first half of its preparation phase and is scheduled for test matches against Gruppo Fisiomed Macerata and Yuasa Battery Grottazzolina in late September. The 31st edition of the Del Monte Supercoppa is set for November 14 and 15, 2026, at the PalaRaschi in Parma. The tournament semifinals will feature Rana Verona against Cucine Lube Civitanova, and Sir Susa Scai Perugia against Itas Trentino. These matchups repeat the pairings from the previous season, featuring the four top teams from the prior SuperLega campaign: defending champions Sir Susa Scai Perugia, Rana Verona, Cucine Lube Civitanova, and Itas Trentino. International success is also noted for Sir Susa Scai Perugia, as all club players have qualified for the round of 16 at the Eurovolley tournament, representing national teams from Italy, Ukraine, Poland, France, and Belgium. Other volleyball developments include Arquata Volley introducing its organizational structure, Asd Giarratana Volley preparing for its Serie B debut, and Fiöi di Cuneo teams scheduled for the Coppa Piemonte.
