My involvement with the Academy and also with the Men’s team filled me with experiences and knowledge that I will carry inside me forever.
“Looking” back I see wins and losses, successes and failures, laughs and cries, joys and sorrows. But the most important thing is that I see friends and colleagues who with dignity and respect will continue the work that we all started together.
I see happy children who, through basketball, acquire values ​​for their future.
I also see the gratitude in their parents’ eyes and feel proud.
But what has really filled my soul all these years, is the creation of basketball sections for children on the autism spectrum!
So only beautiful feelings. After 17 years in total, nine as a player and eight in the Academy, I feel part of the club’s history!
Yours sincerely
