Italian women’s volleyball team pose naked with trophy after winning title
ITALIAN women’s volleyball team celebrated their Serie A1 title by posing naked with the trophy yesterday.
Imoco Volley Conegliano players stripped down after securing their third league triumph in four years with a victory over Igor Novara.
Imoco didn’t give Novara a chance, winning all three games of the final Serie A1 play-off round.
However, their last match was a dramatic encounter – lasting five sets with the champs claiming a narrow, two-point victory in a tiebreaker.
And Imoco players found a creative way of celebrating their hard-fought title – leaving little to the imagination.
They stripped down and posed for a group picture behind the trophy while also biting the commemorative medals they received.
A few of them, Joanna Wolosz and Marta Bechis, then opted for solo snaps, using the the mammoth cup as a fig leaf.
Wolosz shared it on Instagram, captioning it with words that read: “It could not be any different!”

And Bechis followed suit, writing: “Scudetto, you say?”.
Imoco have won their third league title in four years, having dominated Serie A1 in the regular season – finishing it nine points clear ahead of Novara.
The club has quickly risen to the top after it was founded in 2012 following the bankruptcy of Spesa Volley.
