The sporting director Fabrizio Ruggiero takes stock of the situation at ShedirPharma Folgore Massa, ranging at 360 degrees between budgets, market and the Palatigliana question in view of the next competitive season that will see the Massese association again at the starting line of the prestigious A3 Series.

The first season in Serie A saw a well-built and equipped Thunderbolt. She won the skepticism of some insiders, and became the loose cannon of the championship by winning salvation several days in advance. With the bowls stopped, what is your budget?

“I think the balance is certainly favorable, especially since this year we have had to face a very demanding category, full of well-equipped teams and more mature than us both from a company point of view and as a roster. We played in Serie A3 with the hard core of the athletes who had guided us to the leap of the category, and a large part of the 2021/22 staff came from Serie B. Having immediately secured the saving points in the second round, and having arrived in fact, to deserve a place in the play-offs missing them by just one point, I think it tip the scales towards the positive “.

What are the mistakes not to repeat, and where do we start again in view of the new championship?

“Our journey is made up of small errors, but I believe that we have always challenged ourselves with the humility of smoothing out many slight smudges in the work. We are a reality that comes from below, and everything we have built has certainly not been given to us. Our path has been marked by continuous improvement. Paradoxically, learning from mistakes has always been one of our strengths, and I believe that this too can be an aspect from which to start over. The compactness of the company, being very reflective on the choices to be made, observing those who are more mature and have worked longer than us in this category, represent fundamental cornerstones for our growth “.
