Todos los dirigentes coincidieron en que será un evento con un muy alto nivel de competencia luego de su presentación al cierre de la Reunión Técnica General este domingo. Alejandro Grossi (Argentina): “Es una competencia muy prestigiosa. Algunos de los integrantes de este equipo son jóvenes y pretendemos que puedan adquirir experiencia de alto nivel”. Roberley Leonaldo (Brasil): “Será muy interesante para nosotros por que traemos algunos jugadores del equipo principal y algunos jóvenes de categoría sub 23 que se están preparando para el mundial que tendremos en Brasil”. Osiel Vázquez (República Dominicana): “Hace un año ganamos la medalla de bronce. Nuestra meta es revalidar ese el pódium y nuevamente contender en el repechaje para la Liga Mundial”. Sergio Hernández (México): “Nos sentimos honrados por albergar esta competencia. Es una gran responsabilidad. Tenemos jugadores con experiencia probada y esperamos que puedan ayudar para el clasificatorio a la Liga Mundial.” David Alemán (Puerto Rico): “Tenemos la tarea de entrenar a un equipo masculino, renovado, con jugadores nuevos y algunos veteranos. Llevamos siete meses entrenando. Esperamos un buen rendimiento en esta Copa Panamericana”. Gideon Dickson (Trinidad y Tobago): “Estamos muy agradecidos por la oportunidad de participar en este torneo, una competencia con muy altos estándares. Tomaremos cada juego como venga”. Shawn Patchell (Estados Unidos): “Me ha tocado estar involucrado con este torneo en los últimos tres años.
