HIGH LEVEL EDUCATION
ACADEMIC PATH
CHAMPIONS ALSO AT SCHOOL
Our philosophy is to offer players a first-level education. Not only because it is a mandatory requirement for a possible future in College, but also because our mission is to grow our athletes with a high level of culture as well as prepare them to have the dedication to study first and the ability to work in the future. School learning skills and the predisposition to sacrifice are priority aspects even during the recruitment of athletes.
TUTORING
The boys are constantly followed by the tutors of the club and the coaches have strict rules in case of bad school performance. The person responsible of the school area is in charge of supervising this aspect and is always available to both athletes and their parents.
MIDDLE SCHOOLS
With many of them we have been collaborating for years. The consideration and choice of the school takes place after an interview with our head of the School Area. Bassano offers a wide choice: middle schools, two public scientific high schools, a technical commercial institute, a professional institute and other arts and crafts institutes, as well as a private school with which we are affiliated that includes both a linguistic high school and a technical institute. Our club is also able to host athletes who have enrolled in national or international online schools
