PICTURE: He did not disgrace the famous ancestors. The basket prevailed at the celebrations
In the past, he collected one league championship title after another and was a legend, collecting a total of twenty-one during the time of Czechoslovakia and three during the independent Czech Republic. The famous times of Brno basketball are long gone, the current Basket Brno, which is the successor of the famous club, but slowly to the best. This was also shown during Saturday’s ceremonial match on the occasion of the celebrations of the ninety-fifth birthday of Brno basketball. The South Moravians lost Pardubice 82:67 on the home deck of the hall in Vodova Street and consolidated their third position in the table of the Czech highest competition.

“We get light baskets for the first six minutes, but we gradually tightened the screws in the defense. We had a wider rotation, which decided that, “said coach Lubomír Růžička.
The celebrations included an exhibition of posters with players and well-arranged legendary periods of Brno basketball. On this occasion, the Bastkebalists of Brno also donated special signed T-shirts with the logo of the celebrations, the proceeds of which will go to Klára Kalivodová, whom Basket has long supported.
So far, thirty thousand crowns have been collected, which the Kalivod brothers handed over ceremoniously just before the start of the match. “I also want to invite people to the newly opened National Basketball Museum, which opened in Pelhřimov on Friday, when we celebrate ninety-five years of Brno basketball,” said the Brno pilot, who reached his final fourth place in the Czech league last year.

His charges defeated Pardubice for the first time in two years and seven consecutive defeats. “I didn’t even realize this balance, I’m glad that we beat such an excellent team and created one for it,” the Brno pilot praised himself.
Eighteen authorities dragged the South Moravians to a valuable home win by Shimon Purshl. “Certainly, successful rebounds also helped us. We didn’t do well in previous matches, but this time we changed them. The coach encourages us to go for them, “Puršl admitted.
Brno basketball players will have another performance on the international stage by the end of the calendar year. On December 28 and 29, they will perform in the North European Basketball League in Riga, where they will first play against the Lithuanian Šiauliai and later against the Russian team Yenisei of Krasnoyarsk.
