VARESE – Toto Bulgheroni he is a very happy person. Indeed, enthusiastic. The new course of Openjobmetis gives victories to the fans. To the Board member with responsibility for the technical-sporting part it also offers sensations perfectly in line with the best tradition of Varese basketballrecalling the beautiful ones Divarese Of Joe Isaac e Cagiva Of Dodo Rusconi, teams that knew how to combine good play, success and the launch of young players. The “noble father” of Varese and Italian basketball sees excellent future potential and blesses without hesitation the technical guide of Johan Roijakkerswhich compares to the great foreign coaches of the past and present.
The magic touch of coach Johan Roijakkers
I am honest, I did not expect such a radical change with the arrival on the bench of roijakkers. I knew Johan of fame, but I had never seen him work in the gym. I am surprised by what he managed to bring to Varese: mentality, energy and innovation. An approach that could not have been better. Then I always say that a swallow does not make spring, but the wind has certainly changed. Today the Varese basketball it is a beautiful construction site, led by an excellent architect, with louis scola e Michael Archers to support it. I see all the possibilities to express our potential.
Johan Roijakkers in the tradition of the great foreign coaches
Similarities with the Divarese and the Cagiva? Indeed there are, even if it is always difficult to make comparisons with the past. A paradox that a Dutch manager values Italian players? No and I explain why. The merit of Johan is that he does what he believes in and what he sees in training. He has no prejudices, he has faith in his basketball, he has it performed in the game by those who work in the gym and by those who are more connected with him. Then, no matter how good a coach is, it is always the quality of the players that makes the difference. And Johan saw the right potential in some players who were previously little considered. On the other hand, the history of basketball teaches that often the foreign coaches who arrived in Italy were innovators and they brought something new. I think of Aza Nikolicnaturally, to Boris Stankovic, who invented the “Cantù wall”. And again a Dan Peterson it’s at Richard Percudani. Important examples of the past. All arrived in Italy without prejudices, who have found companies like ours, also without prejudice, in which to express themselves at their best. I go beyond the Italian borders and I also think Nick Nurse, coach dei Toronto RaptorsPreviously he was an assistant and head coach in Europe, but he had the intelligence to take over the team without prejudice and won an NBA title.
The Openjobmetis between salvation and play-off
A maxim that is dear to me reads: “the world goes on with what happens while others make plans”. We live game after game and this is the philosophy we must have. The match with Cremona it’s very important, but then there will be ten more. The coolest thing about this cycle is that Varese responded with enthusiasm and energy. This is a very pleasant confirmation: the city, the province and I would say all of Italy love our team.
The importance of launching young people from Varese
They are among the most happy to have seen on the pitch Matteo Librizzi e Nicolò Virginio. Launching young people and, even more so, young people from Varese is a fundamental aspect for us from all points of view. It means to emphasize the importance of our youth sector and the goodness of choices of this kind. It is then up to the guys reciprocate the coach’s trust. They must show that they have the will and determination to make a serious commitment to achieve their goals and dreams. Work and temperament are the fundamental keys in a player’s career. Excellent Johan to give them the opportunity and good methods of working out in the gym. Very good Matteo e Nicolò to be ready in the field.
