Having games every week is really important since it gives experience to the players.”play games against teams that are superior” Anibal said, this shows that he is looking to improve the talent of the girls by making them play with teams that are way better that their team.

Even though he has really high expectations for the team he knows the difficulties of being the coach of a team. “It’s hard, sincerely it is difficult because well we know that social circles here are quite broad to find girls engaged is difficult but not so much just for the training but also for the competitions given that on weekends when we come to play games almost always there are difficulties with the parents.” Anibal said when he was asked what were the main difficulties of the process to binationals.

“We need to greatly improve the part of the character in each of the athletes” Anibal said, after sharing the results of the last games of the team because the character of each athlete plays a big role on every game especially on tough games since the pressure is really high.
