Maurizio Tozzi will not be the coach of Vismederi Costone Siena in the 2024/25 season. The decision was made by the coach himself who communicated to the club that he had decided to put an end to his experience in the world of basketball. The Sienese club can only thank the coach for the work done with the first team this season, a season which culminated with the victory of the Serie C championship and promotion to the Interregional Serie B.
“Now I’ll take care of something else – explained the coach -. It was a very intense championship and I think it gave me all the answers I was looking for. But now I really need to dedicate myself to something else, both in terms of my work and my personal life. I think it’s right to end my experience here.” “The future belongs to the Costone: this year will remain an indelible and profound life experience for me and for all the people who shared this adventure with me – he added -. This team, these colors, will forever be part of my personal baggage.”
The General Manager, Andrea Naldini, thanked Tozzi on behalf of the club: “Maurizio was and is a great coach and in this regard his career speaks for him. However, I want to underline that in addition to being a great technician with us he has proven to be a person of enormous depth: those who have worked alongside him every day know that he is a real man, of rare intelligence and sensitivity” . “This year he took on the role of leader of Costone and led the team to an extraordinary result. The hope – added the DG – is that one day our paths may cross again”.
“Maurizio has undertaken a technical journey with us, making the team grow with work that began last summer and ended a week ago – says Francesco Bonelli, Gialloverde Sports Director -. Even before his excellent qualities as a coach, about which we have never had the slightest doubt, I want to personally thank Maurizio for the trust he has placed in our project. We started from a difficult situation but he started working from day one with the utmost dedication, fully embracing our program.” “Perhaps, from the outside, it may all seem simple – concludes Bonelli -. The truth is that it is really difficult to explain in words the enormous reconstruction work that coach Maurizio Tozzi did for Costone.”
