True Volleyball in defense of Paola Egonu

The words of Alessandra Marzari

Alessandra Marzari, president of the Vero Volleyball Consortium, spoke to volleynews: "As of today, once the activity with the national teams is over, the players of Vero Volley Milan are for all intents and purposes part of my women’s team, all will have the same duties, all will have to guarantee the same attention and commitment, and all will be treated in the same way. È it is my belief that a company for which an athlete è is a member should safeguard her health, offer her a good technical and human experience and take charge of any hostile behavior that could harm the player. And my female athletes know, already from the past years, that they can count on me in certain situations, which may concern the’sports activity but also the extrasports".

"In the case of Paola Egonu, but it applies to all players, I am no longer willing to put up with the insults and slanders that are continuously perpetrated against her on social media. È my intention is not only to delete comments and eliminate users hiding behind various pseudonyms, but also to take legal action against anyone who dares to offend an athlete, male or female, from my Consortium. From today, whoever offends my athletes will offend me and my Consortium, and will suffer the consequences", concluded the club’s number one.
