At the PalaSport Cavina the Under 14 of INVICTUS Academy coached by Ivan Cicchelli e Luca Branchini, at the very first game together after the union between the "Oranges" Hey "Reds" dell'Atletico Basket, yield to Masi for 59-71, but the first step is to trust everyone.
Fielding four 2009 and eight 2010, against twelve 2009 of Masi, ours managed to play three quarters out of four on par: tied in the first and third quarters, we lost of 13 The second one (and there the race was decided) but won of 1 the last one, managing to recover up to -6.
Beyond the numbers, we need everyone to find more consistency in defense and more teamwork in attack, dribbling less and moving the ball more. And get used to playing head-on, immediately looking at who is in front unmarked. Decisive aspects to grow individually and as a team.
