Latest News

This Saturday, April 28, 2012, at the Palmeira hall at 8:00 PM. A week after the end of the regular season, the BM League playoffs begin this Saturday evening. At stake is the second ticket to reach the elite.

As a result, everything has to be redone. This starts Saturday with the first leg of the semifinals of the playoffs in Nice. Laurentiu Lica’s team (the fifth top scorer of the season) will be slight favorites in this duel.

The Nice team, in fact, ended the regular season with 3 defeats in 4 matches, including one against Chaumont (3/1).

Conversely, the latter are on a good streak with 4 consecutive victories, but they need to be wary of Mladen Kasic’s players who clearly want to return to the AM League as early as next year.

The Playoffs are like a second championship with matches of a very particular flavor.

For some, the Playoffs are a bit of a lottery. The results depend on injuries, physical and mental form at the time, and the team you will face.

For others, it’s a confrontation without a safety net where every match is important.

A true match of men where the past, doubt, and uncertainties fade away to focus on the values that drive the group and the aim of victory.

So, exit the long and stressful championship, exit the defeat against Chaumont 3 weeks ago.

What the Nice team will need is a spirit of revenge and conquest!
