Coaching staff:
„We finished their tournament run with three narrow losses, showing resilience and fighting spirit throughout.
Despite falling short on the scoreboard, the team competed closely in every game. The tournament highlighted key areas for improvement. Particularly in physicality, rebounding, and consistency but also confirmed the group’s unity and character.
It wasn’t enough this time, but it was a valuable experience. We know what we need to work on.
The team struggled during short stretches of lost focus, where mistakes piled up and momentum shifted. These moments proved costly, but also clear in showing where development is needed. On the positive side, the defensive identity is taking shape, and the group never backed down from a challenge. This tournament served as a step forward : not in results, but in readiness. »
