Fenerbahçe Alagöz Holding Women’s Basketball Team Head Coach Valerie Garnier, who won the FIBA Super Cup, Turkish Cup, EuroLeague championship and ING Women’s Basketball Super League championship, said that they had a wonderful season.
Answering the questions of the press members at the media day event held at the Fenerbahçe Basketball Museum in the Ülker Sports and Event Hall, the French coach evaluated the 4-cup season.
Stating that they had a wonderful season, they dreamed a lot and realized these dreams, Garnier said, “What we experienced summarizes a wonderful season. We can say that it was a perfect season.” he said.
Underlining that although he did not establish the team himself, they acted together after he took office at the beginning of the season, Garnier continued, “We had a short time to get to know each other and to bring the team to the highest point possible. We went step by step. There was a team here and I created this team.” “Therefore, we all worked together towards the goals. We had a very good team. We said that we had to act as a team to achieve the goals. We should give credit to the team, there was no need for extra motivation.”
Speaking about having coached the yellow-dark blue team before, Garnier said, “Being here before meant that I knew the club structure. This also helped me. I encountered familiar faces when necessary. I knew the fabric of Fenerbahçe. When you come here, you need to be aware of where you are coming.” “You only come to Fenerbahçe to win. Fenerbahçe is a very big family. When I came here again, no one had forgotten me. In fact, it was like I joined my family again.” made the statement.
“MY MOST SPECIAL SEASON”
Underlining that the trophies won and the successes experienced in the past season are very special, Valerie Garnier said, “I can say that this is my most special season in my club career. It is really rare to win all the trophies. A coach aims for championships in all areas when starting the season. When these championships come true, “When we wake up, we check if it is real. We are still in the flow of that moment. Maybe we need a little more time to fully understand everything.”
Emphasizing that they have reached the top as a team, but it is more difficult to stay there, Garnier stated that they want to achieve this.
Garnier stated that Beşiktaş BOA, one of the women’s basketball teams, played in the European Cup final and ÇBK Mersin took part in the EuroLeague Final-Four, showing that Turkey is one of the best leagues in Europe.
Finally, speaking about the next season’s planning, the French coach said, “After having such a season, continuity should be preferred. Of course, there will be some changes.” he said.
After Valerie Garnier’s statements, they posed with the 4 trophies won as a team.
