MONTALTO DORA
Engines on for Montalto Dora Basketball in view of the next competitive season. The management, headed by the president Carmine Di Martino, the technical director Giuseppe Perenchio and the manager in charge Massimo De Masi have announced the return to the company of a former player, Luigi Macario Ban, 38, who will play the role of head coach for the 2021/2022 championship.
As a basketball player he played in the teams of Ciriè, Rivarolo and finally Montalto Dora. His career as a coach saw him make his debut as head of the minibasket sector in Ciriè and Rivarolo, then he coached youth and women’s C teams in Nole.
Pallacanestro Montalto Dora will participate in the Serie D championship with resumption and presentation of the roster on Wednesday 1 September. The goal is to be ready for October 3, the start date of the championship. The squad is being defined, but there are two certain returns, that of the playmaker Alessandro Astegiano, protagonist in the last season of the promotion to Serie C Gold of Usac Rivarolo, and of the winger Mattia Monfroglio from Settimo Torinese. The squad to date is completed by the confirmations of the senior Marcello Feraudo, Paolo Rossetto, Jacopo Perenchio, Alex Manfrè, Federico Gillio Tos, Gabriele Franchetto and Marco Oberti. As far as the Under is concerned, the collaboration with the Lettera 22 Ivrea continues with insertions in the roster of the Under 19 players. The 32 D teams will be divided into two groups of sixteen, so each team will play 30 games. «We are definitely satisfied – President Carmine Di Martino tells us – with the team formed up to now. As President, after more than a year of inactivity, I can’t wait to go back to seeing basketball played, wishing all the participating clubs to be able to play a regular championship without too many constraints. Our goal is to hit the playoffs ». –
