STATEMENTS COACH DANIELE SANTARELLI
“We are in the right direction, we have had a very good first part of the season that has made us aware of our strength and means, these last two home games, tomorrow with Il Bisonte and Tuesday in Champions, will be important as a test before we leave for China. We know that we can grow and improve, what makes me calm is that the girls are very good at absorbing all the stimuli from me and the staff, so everything is proceeding in the best way and I am confident about a continuation of the season on these levels and even better. I am happy with the team’s availability and commitment, we have a full team with no injuries and this is very important to work at the highest level. Florence had some staffing problems and suffered a bit, but at this point in the season we have to look at ourselves and use these games to take a few more steps forward, not to mention that in front of our super fans we always want to make a good impression.”
