João Pedro Vieira anticipates participation in the Victor Hugo Cup

This weekend, the women's CAB team starts their participation in the Victor Hugo Cup, a trophy that usually serves as a preparation for the Women's League teams, but where the CAB has history. According to the lot of the draw, the Madeirans will face the Lousada and the Academic formations, with the two games to be played outside the doors on Saturday and Sunday. On the eve of starting another competition, the CAB Official Site spoke to João Pedro Vieira, CAB senior technician, about participating in the trophy. Your words are recorded here: "Our team will have their second competitive pre-season moment and the goals remain the same as last week, i.e., observing athletes in competition, experimenting with various options, either at the level of the offensive and defensive tactics of the team, or at the level of use of the various players available. Unfortunately, every time we play for the mainland, we cannot take the players we would like, due to the reduction in the number of trips that is clearly little.” “The group has worked very well, the volume of workouts is great, but this is perfectly normal in these early times. I am convinced that this work we have been doing in the last two weeks will bear fruit when the Women's League championship begins. “Despite being a preparation tournament and not performing complete at this stage of the Victor Hugo Cup, we will always enter for each game with the aim of winning and being in the final of this competition. At the same time, we want some of the younger athletes to be gradually integrated so that, in the near future, they can make their contribution to the senior team.”
