History

The club started in 1970, when a group of players decided to form an amateur team. A few years later, groups of children and young people start enrolling to play and the club enters the regional league. Through the years the club restructured and progressed in the regional and national leagues, reaching Series D and C. At the end of the 2012–13 season, after missing a promotion by losing the Serie C final playoffs, the club acquired a Serie B2 license for the following season. The club finished 4th in its Serie B2 debut season (2013–14) and in the following season achieved promotion to Serie B1. In its first season at B1 the club became champions and gained promotion to Serie A2 for the 2016–17 season.[1][2][3]

In the 2024–25 season of Serie A2, Consolini Volley won the promotion pool and advanced to the Serie A1 for the 2025–26 season.[4]

Venue

The club plays its home matches at the Palazzetto dello Sport in San Giovanni in Marignano. The venue has capacity of 420 spectators (expandable to around 600).[5]
