With the company I find myself very well, it was a pleasure to work with the technical staff and I enjoyed a lot with my companions with whom we have created a large group. And then … playing with the best fans in the world who support you is really something special! I think that next year may still be a great season, the company is working very well to allow us to still have a very strong, complete and competitive team to be able to assault again the Championship and the Champions League. “

Francesca Ferretti retired from volleyball. The 34-year-old setter announced this news on the Facebook page with a message that after 20 years of career it’s time for her to stop. 

I had the honor of being able to play in big clubs with great champions, great coaches and beautiful cities.
I was also lucky enough to wear the national team shirt, perhaps not always lived serenely, but it was an honor.
My dream was to finish my career “home” is how it was because for me Modena is home, the city where I played my first year as a holder in the A1 series…Thanks to all of you who have always followed and supported me, my family, all the coaches and companions who have crossed my career”  this is some part of the message that Francesca wrote.
