One step away from the champions
All the Juventus youth teams have started the first rounds of the return rounds in their respective championships and for the most part, in the standings, they are placed close to the top positions.
Under 17 Excellence:
The latest outings of the Under 17s are stinging as they give in after having been ahead by more than 20 points both in Arona and at home against league leaders Casale. As on the shores of Lake Maggiore, the team collapsed in the last quarter in the derby: the absences of Gatti and Camera count when Tava's oxygen drops, the precision of Flavio Gay and the pace of his brother Dario. However, coach Noli's "bad boys" are causing panic among the top teams and another fight is expected in Turin on Thursday.
