Starting again from certainties. There Dinamo Women has put the first pieces in place, however making official yesterday evening, Tuesday 11 June, the confirmation of who has guided the various blue and white groups to continuous growth between Italy and Europe. Antonello Restivo in fact, he will still be the guiding star of a group that will need to be partly rebuilt, but which will have the ambition to confirm itself on both fronts.
Choice
The presence of the expert coach from Cagliari on the white and blue bench was something for which only the official announcement was awaited. “In Sassari you feel good and work well, we identify with being Sardinian and there is that pride in taking Sardinia around the peninsula and Europe,” he said I stayed to the microphones of Trick’n’Roll (here to read). However, the announcement definitively opens up a phase in which the new team will be built. With the goal in mind of trying to climb another step and returning to those playoffs missed in the last Serie A1 only for a victory, achieved on the pitch in Rome but then taken away by the sports judge. With Europe not as a corollary, but as an integral part of a path in which the word protagonism, beyond rankings and budgets, is not forbidden.
On the field
Deborah Carangelo and Sarah Toffolo. These are currently the certain names for the 2024-2025 vintage. There captain and playmaker, committed to the national 3×3 team, is the essential element for a Sassari team that benefits from the player’s abilities both in the control room and one-on-one. However, the former Venezia will also need more help, especially from the point of view of breath. With the aim of the club and Restivo himself which will be to find the right balance to give the national player greater breathing space. He certainly won’t be able to do it Anna Togliani who will leave Sardinia after one season. For Sarah Toffolo, who reached an agreement for the renewal for a further season, the next one will instead be the season of maturity after the one which ended with evident growth thanks to a flexibility that allowed the Sassari coach to also use it as a three. The horizon that the coach himself looked at was that of an extension of the rotations: “This year we already had eight seniors, we will try to reach nine-ten, to try, by always playing the Eurocup, to have more and more possibilities”, the coach said to our microphones. Analysis to which will be added the need to add physical presence and centimeters in the front court. Something could already move before the end of the week, especially in a park Italian which has different times compared to a foreign market which will also this season be influenced by the Wnba rules that came into force in the summer of 2023.
