This weekend, the women's CAB team is facing a very hard test of their sports and endurance. The Amigas go to the Azores to compete for a double match against Sportiva and Boa Viagem, very well organized and competitive teams, which are performing an excellent performance in this edition of the Women's League, occupying the third and fourth position of the classifier. Therefore, the Madeirans will have to be at the best level to return to the region with positive results, which will require a lot of determination and concentration. On the eve of the meetings, the CAB Official Site spoke to Coach João Pedro Vieira and asked him to make a preview of the games Saturday and Sunday. Your words are recorded here: "We started 2015 with an always difficult trip to the Azores, but for me, personally, it is special, because I will return to two islands where I have lived, where I have many friends and of which I keep beautiful memories of their people. I naturally hope to return to Madeira with two victories." "As I have already said, the competitive stop this Christmas was not good for us, as it happened at a time when we were growing a lot as a team, presenting in the field a very good dynamic. However, the working group returned to training with great desire to make a second lap equal to the first, i.e. to win. For this we must be very focused and prepared, and, in a progressive and conscious way, return to the indices we had before the Christmas Quadra or even improve our game." "On Saturday, in São Miguel, we will find a motivated team, which is in third place and which, at home, has not yet lost any game. Sportiva, in theory, will be stronger in this second round, with the inclusion of another player like Rosinha, but the CAB will present itself as competitive as possible, as we are working with some volume and intensity at this stage, which, of course, may cause some production decrease in individual terms in some players, but everything is done in a conscious way always thinking about the main goals of the team." "On Sunday, with our trip to Third, we will play with the Good Trip, which is also making an excellent championship. In fact, congratulations to my friend Roberto Simões for the work he is doing with a team that has few human resources. It will also be a tough game, with a team that will do anything to beat us. Let's see if we can maintain our defensive level after we played the day before in São Miguel."
