A strong collaboration is born between Barcolana and Pallacanestro Trieste, ready to “team up” in the great challenges of the season, both on the basketball court and at sea. The two organizations share, in addition to their central role in Trieste’s sports scene, an international outlook and a determination to excel. Their respective “seasons” also start simultaneously: Barcolana kicks off on September 29th, and Pallacanestro Trieste plays its first home game on October 4th.
Pallacanestro Trieste will be involved in Barcolana with a series of activities, including the special presence of the team in the Barcolana Village and participation in one of the competitive events on the event’s busy schedule. They will also offer the opportunity to purchase tickets and season passes right on the waterfront.
On the other hand, Barcolana will promote Pallacanestro Trieste to its audience through its communication channels, given the coincidence of the first game of the season in the same week. They are also working on a new format for the regatta awards ceremony, which could take place at Palatrieste at the end of November.
“If you want to be in the center of community and the sports scene, look no further than Barcolana,” Richard De Meo, the CEO of Cotogna group that recently purchased the Trieste basketball team, told us this morning in Piazza Unità.
