Basket Faenza under 19. Project regional champion. Piumazzo defeated in the final

The Faenza Basket Project is crowned Under 19 regional champion. The Faenza team also won the return match of the final against the Sisters Piumazzo, beaten 62-47 at PalaBubani after having won the first leg 68-58. A result that Faenza had been missing since 2016, when it was won by Scuola Basket, a success that allowed them to participate in the national finals in Roseto. Leonardi's team had also won the title the previous year, then playing in the national finals in Roseto. Now coach Sferruzza's girls will try to get into the top eight in Italy to compete for the championship and to do so, they will have to get past the Interzona phase. The Under 19 result, which could also be achieved in the coming weeks by the Under 14, is also due to the excellent Regional B championship that the same group of players is playing and where they are proving their worth. Despite being the youngest team in the group, Project has in fact achieved safety well in advance, being able to use the last seven games to prepare for the national commitments of the youth tournament. In the Under 19 group there are also players who are a permanent part of the E-Work roster in A1 such as cousins ​​Elena and Caterina Ciuffoli (the latter called up to the Under 18 national team), Scekic, used continuously by Seletti after the injuries of Reichert and Parzenska, and Brzonova, called up when the commitments are not too close to those of A1 and 'out of category' for this tournament given her enormous talent that has already made her a protagonist also at an international level.
