New pre-season appointment for the Bertram Derthona. Another four-way tournament awaits them to close the work week after the last one in Trapani. This time, a further step forward is being taken in the preparation process for their debut in the 2024/25 Serie A championship, scheduled for Sunday 29 September at 17 pm against Vanoli Cremona on the home parquet of the PalaEnergica Paolo Ferraris in Casale Monferrato. For the first time, the team of Walter De Raffaele in fact, it faces a tournament where there are only opponents that the black and whites will also face in the championship. The opportunity is offered by the 9th Carlo Lovari Trophy di Lucca, where al Shovel Cut of the Tuscan city Bertram will find herself together with Estra Pistoia, Umana Reyer Venice e Naples Basketball.

PROGRAM The black and whites take to the field today for the second semifinal 21 hours against theEstra Pistoia, previously 18: 30 theanother semi-final between Umana Reyer Venice, a playoff seed last season and looking forward to another season at the top of the standings, and Naples Basket, winner of the 2024 Italian Cup. Tomorrow's finals are up for grabs at the same times as the semi-finals, with the one at 18:30 pm for 3rd/4th place and at 21 pm for the trophy. Last year Bertram took it home, presenting itself as the reigning champion by virtue of the victory in the final against Venice, a challenge that the tournament calendar could possibly propose for the third year in a row given that two summers ago it was always Tortona-Venice for the title, with the lagoon team prevailing. Unlike Trapani, where they finished in third place after the overtime defeat in the semi-final against Partizan Belgrade and the success in the consolation final over the Japanese Ryukyu Golden Kings, coach De Raffaele will be able to count on the full roster thanks to the return of the American guard Christian Vital, recovered from the shoulder problem that caused him to miss both matches in Sicily.

PISTOIA The Pistoia roster, the revelation of the last Serie A with the sixth place in the regular season as a newly promoted team, has been completely revolutionized. The Italian-American Dante Calabria has been hired as coach - for him, his debut in the top Italian championship as head coach - in place of Nicola Brienza, leaving only the two players who already boasted the longest militancy in the red and white jersey since last year, captain Gianluca Della Rosa and Lorenzo Saccaggi. Eric Paschall, 28-year-old power forward, former NCAA champion with Villanova and former second choice in the NBA Draft with three seasons played among the American pros, landed in Italy only last Wednesday. The former Golden State and Utah player was absent, along with another new American in the squad, Elijah Childs, in last week's defeat in the first test against another Serie A team, Givova Scafati, winner 91-55 in Rome.
