Bertram debuts in Serie A 2024/25, tomorrow Vanoli Cremona arrives. The words of coach De Raffaele
After more than 40 days of preseason and 8 friendlies of preparation, for the Bertram Derthona the time has come for the debut in the Serie A Unipol 2024/25. For the debut for the fourth time in its history in the top Italian tournament, the black and white team hosts the Vanoli Cremona in the challenge of the 1st day scheduled future, Sunday 29 September, at 17 hours al PalaEnergica Paolo Ferraris of Casale Monferrato. It is the first of an immediately intense series of games that from now until the end of October will see the Lions take to the field eight times between Serie A and Basketball Champions League. Two former Cremonese players will be at Tortona, Paul Biligha and Davide Denegri, the latter of very recent membership, while on the other side Demis Cavina will find the club he coached for three seasons.
STATEMENTS The presentation of the challenge is entrusted to the coach Walter De Raffaele: "It's impossible to think that we can already be at our best, mentally it was a good pre-season but I think this team needs time to get to know each other and grow. Of course it's the first match of the championship, in front of our fans, so we'll try to play a game with great energy, to entertain the fans and try to bring home the victory, which we hope can be the start of a journey as long as possible. Cremona – continues on the opponent – it is a very aggressive team, like every year it tries to focus on players who are little known or less known, but during the year they find in Vanoli a great opportunity to grow, both Italians and foreigners. This year it has confirmed the playmaker Corey Davis, the captain Trevor Lacey and Paul Eboua, I think this is an important backbone for a team that Cavina makes play very well, with great execution ability, presence on the rebound, tough even in defense. This year it will have its say too”.
SUBSCRIPTIONS Having reached a new company record with the demolition of over 900 detached cards, the Company has decided to extend the season ticket campaign until Saturday 12 October. The purchase, from Monday 30 September, will be possible only at the Via San Marziano 4 branch in Tortona.
