The tradition dates back to other male volleyball club from Ravenna, where the G.S. Robur, won five league titles at the turn of the forties and fifties, and Casadio, who was born on the initiative of the Fire Department, and he served in A1 and A2 from the sixties then. In 1987 Giuseppe Brusi and a consortium of local businessmen took over the Casadio and the right to participate in the Series A2 and changed its name to Porto Ravenna Volley. In the nineties, with the sponsorship of the Ferruzzi Group, the team took the name "il Messaggero" Volley, and won a league title, an Italian Cup (1991), three consecutive European Champion Cups (1992, 1993 and 1994), two European Super Cups and the Club World Championship.

In the 1990–91 season, coached by Daniele Ricci, the team (with notable players Vullo, Timmons, Kiraly, Margaret, Gardini, Masciarelli) won the league and the Italian Cup.

Among the players who have played for the team are the Brazilians Renan Dal Zotto and Giovane Gávio, the Russian Dmitry Fomin, and the Italians Vigor Bovolenta and Andrea Sartoretti.

The youth activities (which over the years Il Messaggero was coordinated by the Polish Olympic champion Alexander Skiba) led to the formation of the players who dressed the national team and that still tread the fields of Serie A. The Italian Under-16 title won on June 4, 2000 with victory in the final against Sisley Treviso, remains to this day the last championship of volleyball Ravenna.

With the financial crisis of the industrial group Ferruzzi-Montedison and the death of the entrepreneur Raul Gardini in July 1993, the sports club gradually lost subsidies needed and went to meet a decline or loss; it continued its work (summarizing the name Porto Ravenna Volley), winning one more European title in 1997, the CEV Cup combined with several sponsors that allowed her to continue trading in Serie A until 2000. In that 'year, due to financial problems, the rights to participation in the championship of A1 were transferred to Trento.

The activities of Porto Ravenna Volley continued at youth level, and in the 2009–2010 season, with the presidency of Vanni Monari came the return to a national championship: stravincendo the series C, was achieved promotion to Serie B2.
