The groups of the Italian Super Cup were launched yesterday, this year extended to 16 teams, with relative dates. The qualifying phase is made up of 4 groups of 3 teams with six matches in total between home and away, made up on the basis of last season’s ranking. Treviso Basket is in group C with Brescia and Napoli. The other groupings. At: Venice, Reggio Emilia, Fortitudo Bologna. B: Sassari, Cremona, Varese. D: Trieste, Trento, Tortona. The first classified qualify for the quarter-finals.

It should be noted that Brescia is the former team of Giordano Bortolani and that Napoli of coach Stefano Sacripanti, newly promoted to Serie A, has three ex of De ‘Longhi such as Eric Lombardi, Jordan Parks and Lorenzo Uglietti and one of Benetton, that is Daniele Sandri. The two finalists of the last edition of the Italian Cup (Milan and Pesaro) and the two finalists of the recent playoffs directly access the final phase of the Super Cup as seeded: considering that the second-ranked team in the championship, Milan, is already the winner of the Coppa Italia, together with Virtus Bologna, champion of Italy, the third in the league is admitted, namely Brindisi. These are the four teams that await the four that will prevail in their groups. If Treviso qualifies for the final phase (direct elimination with quarter-finals on 18th, semifinals on 20th and final on September 21st), it will face Milan in the quarter-finals. The qualifying dates are all in September: Saturday 4, Monday 6, Wednesday 8, Friday 10, Sunday 12 and Tuesday 14.

And here comes a problem concerning only Treviso Basket, which as you know on the 13th will make its debut in the Qualification Round of the Champions League, in a venue to be established, against the London Lions. It is clear that, to avoid overlapping, some Super Cup dates will have to be moved: a problem that has already been known for some time and that will now have to be addressed and resolved by the Basketball League. «Yes, we will compare them with the League in agreement with the other teams – explains sports director Andrea Gracis – maybe we could take advantage of the two rest sessions, which in any case have yet to be fixed. We take into account that if we had to overcome the English and the Danes and therefore qualify for the final of the Champions League preliminaries, the day of the match will be the 17th. But at the moment it is better to face one problem at a time: we trust that they can help us, also because eventually have a team plus in European competitions it would certainly be an advantage for the whole movement ».

On the market front, with eight players already under contract, TvB is now looking for the last two foreigners, a long and a winger, who will complete the 5 + 5 roster. News may arrive this week. –
