Progetto Academy Novarello: Italian Basketball Camp (Dec 27-30)

First day of training for the 40 players born in 2011 called up by the National Teams Sector for the Academy Italia Christmas gathering.

Under the orders of coach Alessandro Nocera, the Under 15s will take part in measurements, training sessions and mini-matches from today 27 December until 30 December.

Novarello’s is the last step of a journey that began, for those born in 2011, with the regional camps of the Academy Project, supported between February and June 2025.
From the 786 athletes monitored in the first half of the year, 96 then participated in the Ludec Cup (6-8 December 2025).
In this Christmas gathering, 40 players have finally been called up, divided into two groups (Blue and White) who will alternate on the parquet of the Novarello sports facility.

The calendar of the Under 15 category for the 2025/26 sports season includes the meeting in March 2026, and participation in the Friendship Tournament, which will take place in Spain next year.
