The physical fitness of "Quba" basketball players is satisfactory.
Idman.biz reports that this was stated by the team's head coach Shahriyar Asgarov in his statement to the club's press service.
The expert spoke about the preparation for the new season: "We started training on September 10. The team is almost fully staffed. We work on physical and tactical plans. On October 2, we will have our first meeting in ABL, the opponent is "Sarhadchi". Therefore, some issues need to be accelerated. The physical fitness of the players is satisfactory. We have a test match today. We will face NTD. But a few more test matches are planned. Tactical preparations are also underway. Time is short. During this period, it is necessary to generalize some issues and apply them to the team. We don't give the impression of a bad team. It is too early to say anything about the situation. The outlines of the team will be determined by the end of September."
He considered it appropriate for Levan Gogaladze to stay in the team: "It would be more appropriate to keep the team's staff and have the players play together for several years. Then the players would know each other better. They would also adapt to the game system. We wouldn't have to implement something new every year. But that's the reality. Levan Gogaladze has always helped us. Also, we use his services as a consultant in physical training. He is an experienced player. He has been with us for the fourth season. It is appropriate for Gogaladze to stay in the team. I wish we had the opportunity to keep some of the players from last season in the team. For example, I mean Davonte Craven, Cameron Jones. They were very good players. But they also have their own plans, we couldn't force them. In any case, our current team is also complete and I believe in all my players and my team."
The head coach emphasized that the main goal of the current season is to be in the top "8": "We can attract certain players to the team in winter or after. But now we have managed to form the team as much as possible. Our main goal is to successfully complete the first two rounds and reach high places in the B division. After that, why not perform for a more successful result? In general, our main goal is to stay in the top "8" and fight for high places. Last year, despite the fact that many did not believe in us in the first game of the playoffs, we lost by chance. We lost the first match in "overtime". In the second match, there were controversial decisions, and we lost the match at the end. In any case, we also have claims. Everything will be visible during the championship. Time will show how much the preparation of our players will allow this. I believe in them."
He said that he expects support from local fans in home games: "We want to develop basketball in Guba. If there is some enthusiasm about children's basketball, it is possible to do some work. In any case, we have a good team and we believe that there will be support. The fans are also a great support. I ask the basketball and sports fans of Guba, the sports community, to support us at least in our home games. Let's raise the name of our Guba to the heights. A lot depends on their support for us in the games. I also ask the parents of Guba to enroll their children in basketball training, bring them to matches. Our beautiful Northern region has a very healthy population physically. Children are also interested in basketball. Of course, it would be great if most children were involved in basketball. I hope we will make them happy with our victories. We are hopeful and positive. We are preparing for the new season in the best way to make the Guba fans happy."
