The Malta Volleyball Association (MVA) has appointed Goffredo Guazzoni as assistant coach to Technical Director Edvaldo Carvalho Da Silva for both the senior national team and the Under 23 YDTP.

Goffredo is a qualified FIPAV coach and over the past 10 years has coached several teams in Italy and Malta including Valletta Mapei, Toyota Playvolley, Pallavolo Sestese and AP Castellettese.

The MVA is confident that his involvement in the national teams and YDTP will be positive to the teams and to players individually.

MVA's President Jesmond Saliba thanked Dalton Caruana for his sterling work and tireless dedication towards the coaching aspect of the senior national team in its journey towards the last GSSE Games. He also expressed his gratitude to Leonard Zammit Munro for his energy and commitment in the assistance at coaching level of the YDTP players. Zammit Munro will continue to coordinate the YTDP programme, in line with his role in Youth Development which he has been successfully fulfilling within the MVA.
