junior, coach Laura Tommasella speaks: “Work and passion to keep the group alive at a distance”

Stay tuned. After having captured and told moods, wishes, dreams and hopes of the very young and indomitable Mafaldine of mister Natasha Piai, it's time to turn your gaze to upper class registry of quarry Red Blue, in turn struggling with the forced and persistent distance from the heart of the football stage.

For Tosette guided by Laura Tommasella the impact on the pitch with the sporting season 2020-21 a beating of butterfly wings lasted even longer, just enough time to welcome the coach-player from San Donà di Piave back to the Juniors' team bench, two years after the splendid success achieved in the championship of competence.
We feel just from coach multitasking, in the meantime, it is now ready to return to the scene with the imminent resumption of the First Team, how is the backstage of the Tose Wannabe between constant online training sessions and all the necessary resilience to keep the group alive.

What sensations did you experience finding the bench of the Juniores rossoblù team, despite the fleeting taste of the championship and the defeat in the only match played so far?
The return to the technical guide of the rossoblù Juniores was very exciting, when the company offered me to go back to living this further training experience, I accepted without delay, aware that dividing again between playing football and the role of coach would not have been easy at all. Unfortunately, the season has been very short-lived so far, since it was interrupted in mid-October after just one day of the championship due to the well-known pandemic events. Despite the narrow defeat in the only match played against Belluno, I can be satisfied with the approach taken by the girls throughout the preparation for the competitive season.

How have you digested this again, long stop and how you are experiencing the moment in these tiring months of remote work?
Clearly, the fleeting return to the field left a bitter taste in our mouth, especially given that the girls had been missing football from the first stop in February. In recent months we have tried to do everything possible to maintain a glimmer of normality on a technical and athletic level, implementing working methods compatible with remote communication tools. Nothing can ever replace the daily work done in the field, but in this phase any solution useful to keep the group cohesive and active allows us to be able to think about a future recovery full of satisfactions.

What are your thoughts on the current situation? Just stay still or need to return to play as soon as possible with further ad hoc protocols?
Surely it is right to think of a recovery only when the rules that are truly shared by the whole movement have finally been found and approved., and that everyone can respect without excessive economic burden for companies. At this moment we cannot yet unbalance ourselves with respect to the evolution of the health situation, the hope is that however it goes, the girls do not lose the desire to test themselves in sporting commitment or in any case lose the stimuli that have led them to grow up in football so far.

Your wish and wish for this 2021 and a special wish you would like to give to your girls.
Trivial answer, but in this period I think it's normal to want it: that all this passes and that we can finally return to living in complete freedom, as we were used to. I tell my girls not to give up, to hold on and try to take everything positive we can assimilate from this situation in order to always grow and improve.
