The farewell of President Federico Casarin
"Mitchell is one of those players who have made the history of this club. He will always have a prominent place in our club, not only for what he has done on the court with his performances and the goals he has achieved, which we have all witnessed, but above all for the moral and human values that have always distinguished him. Indeed, I want to thank Mitch as a man because he gave so much and contributed in an important way to our growth: he was an example for everyone, especially for youths. After so many years together our paths separate, but this is certainly not a goodbye because Mitch will always remain one of the Reyer family. On behalf of all Umana Reyer, I thank him and wish him the best of luck, in sport, but above all in life. See you soon at Taliercio Mitchell.”
