This is the comment of the Juventus minibasketball manager Alessio Gaudio: ʺParticipation in the Vivi il Playground tournament was a very nice experience in which the boys participated with enthusiasm, putting their best effort against high-level opponents. In every race we played we grew, thus reaching our main objective. It was also an occasion in which we collaborated with Olympia Voghera, giving further continuity to the relationship between the two companies. On the pitch, the athletes of the two teams quickly made friends and immediately found the right chemistry to face the matches. I would like to thank all the families for the great collaboration and availability they have shown us; I also congratulate PMS, and the minibasket manager Marco Giangreco, for the excellent organization of Vivi il Playgroundʺ.
