UDINE
From the fireworks of August to those of an A2 series to be enjoyed. The new Apu Old Wild West is ready to go with renewed ambitions after having cherished the dream of promotion in the play-off final against GeVi Napoli.
AGENDA
Tomorrow the first handshakes for the bianconeri, at the meeting scheduled for 8 pm at the Pizzikotto in Tavagnacco. On Tuesday morning, first round of medical examinations at the Sanirad in Tricesimo, followed by athletic tests at the Carnera sports hall. Second round of medical examinations on Tuesday afternoon, then training at Carnera. Wednesday is the day of Trevor Lacey’s arrival in Friuli: landing at Venice airport at 9.20 am and medical examinations at 2.00 pm. The withdrawal in Tarvisio is scheduled from 24 to 31 August, the day of the first friendly test against Mestre. First official match on 12 September in Mantua for the Super Cup, debut in the league on 3 October at Assigeco Piacenza.
THE ADVERSARY
The game of predictions has already begun. In the front row are Udine and Cantù, who wants to go back to the upper floor immediately and has entrusted the bench to Sodini and the role of technical director to Frates. Ambitious market for the Brianza, but they will need time to find a team identity. Total renewal for Reale Mutua Torino: from the button room (Avino new patron instead of Sardara) to the bench (Casalone replaces Cavina), passing through the completely revolutionized roster. The Piedmontese will also need time. Same goes for Givova Scafati, always ambitious with patron Longobardi in the saddle, but turned upside down like a sock: Rossi coach in place of Finelli, new roster for nine tenths. In the fight at the top there will be room for Verona with coach Ramagli at the helm, the usual Forlì of Dell’Agnello and a Ferrara ready to act as an outsider.
THE FORMULA
The National Basketball League made it official with the launch of the calendar. The bizarre second group stage disappears (conceived last year for the odd number of participants), the clock phase returns. It will take place over four days, at the end of the regular season, with two home matches and as many away matches. –
