Great success at Pala Austria forUnder 16 which won 61-54 on the battleship Pielle Livorno, currently leader of the table and unbeaten since the first day of the season. The labronics, strong and physically well structured, start well but are reached already at the end of the first quarter. Chinellato and Ginesi immediately loaded with fouls force the coach to manage the match not foreseen. We arrive in a draw at the interval but the last two quarters see the Maremma players prevail up to the final +7. All the boys called into question responded very well to the indications of coach Di Patria who managed this match perfectly, Pieraccini’s good performance in rebounds with excellent shooting choices. The whole team showed character, attributes, compactness and determination on the pitch as well as on the bench. Next match away to Cecina on 11 April.
External fall for the Under 15 Silver on the Audax Carrara parquet which prevails 62-57. Away more difficult than the score says; the climate was too hot to welcome the boys of coach Conti who, following an ordinance, should have played behind closed doors but this was not the case, at least for the home fans. Even without the public’s favor, the Maremma players have shown the progress made in this year by showing a good basketball but the hosts have shown themselves to be a few points higher. Appointment to the second match of the second phase, again in the Apuan land, this time on April 9 in Massa.
The third stage of the Silver championship for the Under 13 by coach Massai, who win 55-32 on the Arezzo Basketball School. Difficult game against a high level opponent, which the boys have faced contracts and with too many fears, still managing to defend well and gradually create a gradually increasing advantage. The partials show an average of 8 points conceded for each quarter compared to 14 achieved. A step forward, hoping that the experience of games like this will teach the whole roster to play it always and in any case without fear.
This is the comment of coach Massai: “As we expected it was an intense and difficult match. The result may suggest an easy race but it wasn’t like that at all. As I have been saying to the boys for some time now it becomes important to do the defensive phase very well, because we will find all teams organized with quality players who, if let free, can hurt us ”.
Success 14-10 on the field of the Invictus Livorno for the Beginners. Nice match between two teams that are equal and that have shown a lot of determination. The game was in fact very fun in terms of intensity, with the greater accuracy in the shots in the four tempini won making the difference. “We are finally beginning to see the courage that these guys sometimes lacked – commented the Grosseto club – who for two years have not been able to play any matches and now have to get used to playing again”.
