Saturday 22 February 2020. An inside look, for the Under 16 Gold. Strong first win of the new course, obtained after extra time on Ferrara Basketball School at the end of an exciting match played at the Academy of Sport Village Torreverde, the "Oranges" of INVICTUS Academy they failed to subvert the prediction in Furla, the field of S.G. Fortitudo, holding up best in the first quarter (16-13), making itself distanced clearly in the two central (21-9 e 29-8) and then return to improve in the last (17-11), games, however, now done. So, behind the heavy 83-41 final that can be there for reasons of ranking (3a against 13a) but that must not be there for the growth path that the boys trained by Alberto Marculissi, it is worth taking a look inside.
Starting with a question that, more than numerical, it is above all mental: that of free throws, which as already happened in the match played on the same field by the Under 15 Gold, has penalized our team enormously. Pull with 12/36 from the line may not be enough, and those 24 points given obviously weighed a lot on the inertia of the match, especially the 5/19 of the first two quarters, closed under fifteen lengths. A matter of concentration, mostly, improved with consistency in training, and in general taking a step forward at 360 °, with the aim of gradually improving from all points of view, both individuals and teams.
Similarly, the Company is working at 360 ° together with Fortitudo Basketball, aiming for the future. Announced INVICTUS Camp which will be carried out in direct collaboration, with a single Technical Staff, and will be presented in the coming days with all the details, the goal is even more important.
