The crisis hit before the seventh year. After six seasons, Dinamo Women is leaving the A1 Women's League. They will not compete in the next championship, despite staying up through the playouts against Brixia Brescia.

This isn't the first club to fold; Virtus Bologna, Ragusa, and Roma have already done so, and the league has been limping for two seasons, a testament to the poor financial return and visibility. And the women's basketball leadership must ask itself some questions.

Unfortunately, Dinamo Women's six championships have left no mark on the growth of the Sardinian women's movement: they have been a magnificent cathedral in the desert. Despite the beautiful game they offered, the impressive results in Europe, and the many talented foreign players, there has been no impact on the local community. In the provinces, women's basketball remains in crisis at the youth level. It should also be noted that in these six years, Dinamo Women hasn't released a single Sardinian player, so much so that they have always recruited Italian players from outside the island to play in matches, launching some into the national team, such as Toffolo and Egwoh.
