Staying up is the primary objective. Ahead of the derby against Spal

Mesola Calcio , which will compete in the Eccellenza championship for the first time, presented itself to the Mesola community on Monday evening, who rallied around the team that has brought so much joy to its fans in recent years. The pressure for this new experience, heightened by the two matches against Ars et Labor, aka Spal, is palpable, but it's also coupled with an equal amount of determination and desire to perform well, with the stated goal of staying up.

During the presentation, coach Oscar Cavallari jokingly echoed president Massimo Modena , who had stated in an article, "Whatever happens, it will be a great experience." The coach emphasized that this is a league never before seen, "which I think must be maintained at all costs. Of course, the primary objective is survival, but we will go to the various stadiums to try to win every match. The enthusiasm is immense, and we must not fear anyone; only by working hard can we achieve results, which then translate into fun and victories.

We'll begin preparations next Monday because—added Cavallari—in just over a month, on August 24th, the first official Cup match will take place, and the championship begins on the 31st." Mesola's manager Massimo Modena said he was "more excited than usual due to the pressure we feel and the expectations that have been created. We're a good group and we must always honor the Mesola jersey, which has a hundred years of history."

Sporting director Edoardo Biondi made no secret of his deep excitement, the fruit of a long journey, "but it must be short-lived because the challenge ahead is demanding and must be faced with great determination and equal focus." He then recalled the role of Andrea Marandella, who rose from last year's player to assistant coach due to his consistently strong passion and dedication. Daniele Maestri will be the coach of the junior team, but will attend opponents' matches to help the coach play as best as possible.

Mayor Lisa Duò also announced important news for the Mesola stadium, honestly admitting, "We know the stands are not up to par for the sport. We submitted a tender, but were rejected for funding by just one point. However, by the end of August, the stadium will have compliant restrooms for men and women, as well as a wooden hut for fans to enjoy. Keep Mesola's name high," she said, wishing the players well, "and have fun."
