Italian volleyball club staff continuity

On 24 July 2026, Cuneo Volley announced that head coach Matteo Battocchio would remain in charge for the 2026‑27 season, with assistants Mauro Rizzo and Fabio Genre also staying on the technical staff. The club highlighted the importance of continuity after three years, noting the coaching team’s role in returning Cuneo to the SuperLega.

Four days later, Cuneo Volley released a more detailed staff roster, confirming the retained technical team and unveiling its medical personnel, including doctor Matteo Parola and orthopaedic surgeon Gabriele Pisanu. New appointments were added, such as athletic trainer Valerio Grossi and field physiotherapist Jimena Festino, while thanking departing staff members. The same announcement also listed staff continuities at other Italian clubs—Cisterna Volley, Polisportiva Pino Donato Taverna, Igea Virtus, and Cagliari football—showing a broader pattern of maintaining coaching and medical teams across the Italian sport landscape.
