Those balloons have another color 50 years of Castelfranco in a book

CASTELFRANCO

The splendid book that tells the 50th anniversary of Castelfranco Veneto volleyball is called «Even the balls have changed color». The volume will be officially presented on Sunday 31 October at 2.30 pm, a few hours before Duetti Giorgione – Verona, a competition valid for the third day of the women’s B1 series tournament. On the occasion, the under 15 girls who graduated from the interprovincial championships last season will also be awarded, overcoming the competition of Treviso and Belluno teams. These days preceding the presentation of the volume, which can be ordered at the email [email protected]., Are characterized by some posts on social media where the achievements of these first 50 years are illustrated, with photos that recall the dear, the sweet and the pious past.

The photos in the volume are 150, all collected, in two years of skilful work, by Anna Dalla Toffola Toniato, 76, one of the co-founders of the company, in 1969.

«The 50th – recalls the president Angelo De Marchi – fell two years ago, but Dalla Toffola Toniato was completing the volume. Then the pandemic broke out and eventually the volume was completed this year. It is a delightful era that tells our whole story. ”

Eight years ago, in the men’s sector, a technician appeared who in a few years would have climbed the peaks of Italy, Europe and the whole world: Daniele Santarelli. This and other goodies are contained in the book. Some of these photographs have been enlarged into special prints, which are about to be placed on the steps of the Palasport in Castellano. “This book – concludes President De Marchi – is for the city and represents the city. Our Castelfranco also passes through here, for half a century of volleyball “.
