Borac Mozzart begin their training camp ahead of 2024/25 season

Last season the club from the town by the Morava river has demonstrated its value and managed to protect its place among the AdmiralBet ABA League competition. The beginning of the regional competition this season is scheduled for the second half of September and therefore there is enough time for the Čačak squad to get ready for all of the challenges that are waiting for them.

Right now, the roster of the squad, that is led from the bench by head coach Saša Ocokoljić, is composed of nine players - Uroš Čarapić, Nikola Manojlović, Pavle Nikolić, Petar Radović, Marko Pavićević, Justas Furmanavičijus, Paulius Valinskas, Đorđe Ćurčić, and Marko Jošilo. Of course, the squad hasn’t yet been fully compoed so there are several more reinforcements expected in Čačak.

Head coach Saša Ocokoljić has made a statement at the beginning of the training camp: “We have officially entered the preseason. We have nine players under contract. We will be working once a day during the first week of the training camp and the focus will be on the physical readiness.”

The club is steadily working on finding reinforcements. “As I said before, we will be working on bringing in the players, that cover positions one and five. Eventually, we are planning to sign with another player, that plays in backcourt, but this is not a priority right now. I hope that we sign some new names during this week,” Ocokoljić added.

Seven preseason games are planned by Borac Mozzart right now, four of them in Čačak. The list is as follows:

Bahčešehir – Borac Mozzart (Divčibare, 22 August)
Enisey – Borac Mozzart (Zlatibor, 26 August)
Borac Mozzart – Spartak Office Shoes (Čačak, 2 September)
Borac Mozzart – SC Derby (Čačak, 4 September)
Borac Mozzart – Čačak 94 (Čačak, 7 September)
AEK – Borac Mozzart (Belgrade, 9 September)
Mega MIS – Borac Mozzart (Belgrade, 14 September)

Borac Mozzart započeo pripreme za novu sezonu

Borac Mozzart započeo je pripreme za sezonu 2024/2025. u kojoj će po peti put zaredom učestvovati u elitnom jadranskom takmičenju. Čačani motivisani ulaze u trenažni proces. 

Minule sezone klub iz grada na Moravi je pokazao koliko vredi, pa je uspeo da sačuva svoje mesto u AdmiralBet ABA ligi. Kao što je dobro poznato, start novog izdanja regionalnog takmičenja zakazan je za 22. septembar, tako da je pred čačanskim taborom dovoljno vremena da se spremi za sve izazove koji ga očekuju u novoj, kako se čini, nikad težoj takmičarskoj godini.

U ovom momentu, roster prvog tima koji sa klupe predvodi trener Saša Ocokoljić sastoji se od devetorice košarkaša: Uroš Čarapić, Nikola Manojlović, Pavle Nikolić, Petar Radović, Marko Pavićević, Justas Furmanavičijus, Paulius Valinskas, Đorđe Ćurčić, Marko Jošilo. Naravno, tu nije kraj, tako da će u periodu koji dolazi sastav biti popunjen neophodnim pojačanjima.

Saša Ocokoljić, šef struke Čačana, u nekoliko rečenica je prozborio o intencijama u periodu koji dolazi. „Zvanično smo krenuli sa pripremama za novu sezonu. U ovom momentu, devetorica igrača su pod ugovorom. Radićemo jednom dnevno prve sedmice, a fokus će biti na fizičkoj spremi.“

Klub intezivno radi na dovođenju neophodnih pojačanja.

,,Kao što sam već rekao, radimo na dovođenju igrača koji pokrivaju pozicije jedan i pet. Eventualno, planiramo da dovedemo još jednog košarkaša koji igra na spoljnim pozicijama, ali on u ovom trenutku nije primaran. Nadam se novim potpisima tokom ove sedmice”, dodao je Ocokoljić.

Što se tiče rasporeda pripremnih utakmica, od ukupno sedam planiranih tri će biti odigrane u Čačku, a četiri na strani. Detaljnije, plan je sledeći:

Bahčešehir – Borac Mozzart (Divčibare, 22. avgust)
Jenisej – Borac Mozzart (Zlatibor, 26. avgust)
Borac Mozzart – Spartak Office Shoes (Čačak, 2. septembar)
Borac Mozzart – SC Derby (Čačak, 4. septembar)
Borac Mozzart – Čačak 94 (Čačak, 7. septembar)
