Due to the U13 tournament organized by Virtus, in which we will take part with the team trained by Andrea Fanaletti, next weekend we will be physically in Tuscany to formalize the relationship, of which we already had good proof from last season with the journey of Andrea Bresciani in our youth sector. I am sure that this cooperation will be a sign of great satisfaction, considering that getting closer to Tuscany, the land of basketball, has been our goal for some time.”
