After four confirmations, the first new entry who, among other things, projects even more the universe of #fiorid Acciaio in the blue atmosphere, being a player fresh from the call by the technical commissioner Lino Lardo with the pink Italbasket for the Cividale del Friuli meeting scheduled until on June 19 with friendly matches against Slovenia (on 17) and Spain (on 19).
In home La Molisana Magnolia Basket Campobasso is ready to add the physicality and extreme versatility of an outsider of the caliber of Martina Kacerik, a player who, in the last five seasons, lived first two years in Venice and then three years in Ragusa, having to deal with Sicilian, even with an annoying injury.
NEW CHALLENGE Now, however, there is this new chapter in an important career for the outsider who, after two top teams like Venice and Ragusa, is ready to embrace another reality of depth in the Italian basketball scene.
«I am very happy to be able to be here in Campobasso – confesses – and I thank the club and the technical staff who wanted me. La Magnolia is a continuously improving team and has the same imprinting as me: the will to always grow, therefore there are all the conditions to start this path in the best possible way “.
FROM ONE TO THREE Player able to cover, without distinction, all three roles of the back courtthe twenty-six year old of 184 centimeters openly confides that “I love to play as a point guard, even if in the last period I have been more familiar with the role of guard, but I was also used in certain circumstances and for precise tactical needs as a small forward”.
PUBLIC FRIEND For her accustomed to the warmth of the PalaMinardi crowd, being at the Arena now with the support of the rossoblù fans will be a particularly welcome continuity.
«Playing in the facilities where there is heat is beautiful and fun and this is the salt of basketball. I hope the Campobassan fans continue to be close to the team with all the warmth and support they know how to give ».
BLUE CHAPTER In Kacerik’s head and thoughts, however, there is now – by return of post – this new call in blue.
«I have been missing for a while from the women’s senior national team circuit and so I approach this appointment with a bit of anxiety, but the good one that passes you when you set foot on the parquet. I missed the blue environment. I know that, at this stage, there are no official commitments, but I will give my best to provide an important signal in perspective ».
EXCELLENT CHAMPIONSHIP Still in terms of perspective, the current market situation for women’s A1 offers a particularly high quality picture of the entire tournament and not just the big ones.
«Vero – confirms the external rossoblù – it promises to be a championship of the highest level. After all, the movements of the top teams in a chain have made all the clubs move a little and this is not a small aspect because when there is an overall improvement, everyone benefits from it ».
PROFESSION ‘SOLDIER’ Entering more specifically about herself, Kacerik brings out what is her main feature (in addition to a great attention in the defensive phase). “I try – he specifies – to do what the team needs”.
SHARED WISHES In this sense, the promise that the latest arrival on the rossoblù front makes to itself in view of the new season has a very specific declination.
“I will always try to give my best and continue in what can be my improvement as a player from all points of view also to put aside one last season which, in my case, was heavily influenced by an injury” .
“This same desire to give the best – glosses – I think it is undoubtedly shared by my teammates and this is precisely the intent that I feel I can provide to our fans ».
