The female basketball Syli.
Guinea faces Senegal, this Saturday, September 18 (10am GMT), for its first match of Afrobasket 2021. But until Friday 17, part of the Guinean delegation was not yet in Yaoundé, Cameroon, where Afrobasket 2021 is being held (September 17-26). But, the hard part is over. With the coup d’état in the country, some feared a withdrawal from the women’s basketball team. Thanks to the financial support of a few private companies, the Syli was able to prepare for a few days to honor the invitation of the FIBA Africa launched in Guinea after the withdrawal of Gabon.
For the captain of the Women’s Syli, Khady Mbaye, there is no need to lament. You have to adapt to the situation. “Because of the coup d’etat we missed the preparation. It was only two days ago that we started to gather together, she confided this Friday. We had no choice given the security situation, so we will make do with it. ”
“Our asset is our defense and our enthusiasm.”
Last June the women’s basketball Syli lost during the qualifying phases in a double confrontation with Cape Verde. The captain hopes to ride on the cohesion of the group born two years ago and which was consolidated during this adventure to make a strong impression in Yaoundé. “We know each other, this is not the first time that we play together. It is already an asset, accounts Khady Mbaye. The other asset is our defense and our enthusiasm. ”
Oumar Camara Sampil, secretary general of the Guinean Basketball Federation, agrees. He says : “We had a very complicated preparation especially since we were drafted. The luck we have is that the group knows each other. And the five major knows each other. The coach and the players have known each other for two years. We will see how to integrate two or three players. We hope to rise to the challenge. ”
Guinea benefited from a Wild card (invitation) after Gabon’s withdrawal. The male selection had the same privilege for the male Afrobasket which was held a few weeks ago in Kigali, Rwanda.
Guinea is lodged in Pool C of the 2021 Women’s Afrobasket, along with Senegal and Egypt.
