The objective «is not growth, but rather the maintenance of these standards – states Mauro Ferrari -. Growing takes a lot of resources. Now it’s time to take a little vacation, and then we’ll see how to reorganize ourselves for the future.”
These are some of the words of the CEO of Germani Spa at the party for the closing of the season, organized at PalaLeonessa. The entrepreneur also recalls that, at this time, «sport in Italy is abandoned to itself. Playing sport requires a significant commitment in terms of time and resources. This has been a unique season. I don’t know if it can be defined as unrepeatable. The culmination of a project that began three years ago. We will always remember who made up this team.”
All the athletes of the squad are present at the party. The only absent – justified – is coach Alessandro Magro, who had to reach his birthplace in Castelfiorentino for an urgent family commitment.
For fans and enthusiasts, the opportunity to thank and greet their favorites. One, certainly, will not return at the end of the summer. This is CJ Massinburgwho has already signed for Turkish side Bahçeşehir.
For the rest, the construction site for the future is open. There are several issues to be resolved, starting with the reconfirmation of the technical staff and the evaluations of the players and the squad. Even before that, it exists the topic of possible participation in a European Cup. A topic which Ferrari made it clear that he did not want to talk about, at least now, just as he underlined his annoyance at the articles published in the press after the exit of Pallacanestro Brescia from the play-off semi-final against Milanfocused on hypotheses of possible future scenarios.
During the evening, in addition to captain Della Valle, Bilan and Petrucelli also had “Brescian” words for next season. “I have a contract, I consider myself a German player,” says the Italian-American winger.
Christon is instead saying goodbye. The injury that kept him out of game 3 against Milan, moreover, is quite serious. Ferrari and Burnell (the Florida winger still has one year left on his contract with Pallacanestro Brescia, but the club has an exit in its favour), during the evening, took a moment to talk in private. Now is the time for all players to pack their bags and go on holiday or join their families. For them the year has truly come to an end.
