We are kicking off the basketball Saturday in Sopron at 4.30 pm, during which first our ladies, then afterwards, the gentlemen also step on court in Novomatic Aréna.
Our opponents will be Ludovika-FCSM Csata, who are in the middle of the table at the sixth seed. Fresh news about them is that they strengthened their roster with an American shooting guard. The American Japreece Dean began her European career in Russia, and this year she even participated in the Euroleague Women Qualifiers with Kayseri, among others, scoring 20 against Szekszárd. A week ago they were defeated by Szekszárd without her, but as long as they were able to keep up the pace, they managed to put up a fight against the in-form blue and white squad.
We can expect a tough game against them, especially since we are hosting them with an incomplete roster. As it is known, the international basketball federation (FIBA) decided to postpone our Euroleague Women game against Fenerbahce due to coronavirus cases on Tuesday, when we still couldn't see if there were going to be additional cases. As a result of careful actions it did not happen, so even if it is with an incomplete roster, we can already play the game against Csata, who are dangerous opponents, in which there is a risk of success, but because of the really tight schedule our board decided to play the game with a short rotation.
Our head coach Dávid Gáspár also expects a tough game.
Tickets to the game can be purchased at the venue for 1500 HUF. According to the regulation in effect, entry to the game is only permitted for those in possession of an EU or Hungarian vaccination card, and those under the age of 18 may enter along with a grown-up who has a vaccination card.
Because of the SuperCup game on Tuesday our next home game will take place at an unusual time, on Friday from 6 pm, in which we host BKG PRIMA NATURA Szigetszentmiklós
A jövő keddi Szuper Kupa mérkőzés miatt szokatlan időpontban, pénteken 18 órakor kerül sor a következő hazai bajnoki mérkőzésünkre, melyen a BKG PRIMA NATURA Szigetszentmiklóst fogadjuk
The board of our club has great experience in managing difficulties, but we are facing an especially huge challenge in terms of functioning due to the energy crisis, as well as on a professional level, since Courtney Vandersloot is for now unable to join our team due to personal reasons
Klubunk vezetésének nagy tapasztalata van már a nehézségek menedzselése terén, de most különösen nagy kihívások elé nézünk a működés tekintetében az energia-válság miatt, illetve szakmai vonalon is, miután személyes okok miatt Vandersloot Courtney egyelőre nem tud csatlakozni a keretünkhöz
