Travel day for the Cucine Lube Civitanova waiting to return to the gym tomorrow, Thursday 27 February, and prepare as best as possible for the upcoming Marche derby at the Eurosuole Forum, the last act of the Regular Season. Today’s evening, the troops of Giampaolo Medei will be back in their headquarters after the week-long “extra-large trip”. Having left last Wednesday for Padua, after the recovery of the championship which took place on Thursday at the Kioene Arena the red and white giants stopped in Trento for Saturday’s match at the ilT daily Arena, valid for the penultimate round of the regular season. A tour de force culminated with a further grueling trip to Türkiye for the Challenge Cup semi-final second leg, which was won yesterday afternoon on the pitch in Ankara. The enthusiasm for qualifying for the double final of the European trophy in March can only partially soothe the tiredness accumulated in the last half day on the move.
Captain Fabio Balaso and his teammates will get back to work in the Palas weight room starting from Thursday afternoon, divided into two groups. The program also includes two technical training sessions in the afternoon, distributed between Friday and Saturday. Finally the usual finishing of Sunday, the day of the home derby scheduled for 6pm against Yuasa Battery Grottazzolina.
