Mantova is rested this week but it will watch the others with serenity. It went back to its PalaBam gym a few days ago and the players were happy to be back to more normal training hours. The next game for Totire’s boys will be against newly promoted Sora. Then will follow the derby against Cavriago and a home game against Isernia.

“The most important thing is the make the home advantage court count – said captain Barbareschi – It’s funny that I say that though, because I had never played in the PalaBam before the Città di Castello game. Last year, we played the whole season in the PalaSiglacom and then I got injured at the beginning of the pre-season, so personally I’ve played three times away. Still, such modern facility like the PalaBam has to be honoured”.
