The city of Prishtina to host the Final 4 of EUROHOLD Balkan League

The city of Prishtina to host the Final 4 of EUROHOLD Balkan League
11-04-2014 | 10:00
The Management of EUROHOLD Balkan League chose the location for Final Four 2014 to be the city of Prishtina with hosting club KB Sigal Prishtina.

The decision was taken after carefully checking the 2 official applications that arrived until the priory scheduled deadline – 10.04.2014. - from BC Levski Sofia and KB Sigal Prishtina.
 
BC Gilboa Galil did not apply.
 
Unfortunately for the great spectators and supporters of BC Balkan, for the new arena and the city of Botevgrad, BC Balkan did not apply for hosting Final Four 2014 as well. The Management of the League had two meetings with the Mayor Mr. Georgi Georgiev as the Arena is property of the Municipality of Botevgrad and has visited the newly built Arena Botevgrad few times after its opening, checking the possibilities and under what conditions to organize there the Final Four 2014. However, during this week, we received by the Municipality of Botevgrad quite an unacceptable offer for renting the venue, with conditions and obligations that do not refer to the organization of any sports event nowadays and the League could not accept them. Meanwhile, BC Balkan qualified for the Final 4 but never sent official application and therefore the option of the city of Botevgrad was once again cancelled.
 
Although BC Levski has an anniversary this year – 100 years since the foundation of the club for which we congratulate them and wish them another 100 years to make their fans happy and proud, the club already hosted the event 4 years ago in Sofia. Final Four 2013 also took place in Bulgaria and we do consider that when there are other applicants fulfilling all the requirements, from different countries and teams, they have to be respected and with priority.
KB Sigal Prishtina sent the more professional and better offer, covering all the requirements of the BIBL Final Four Regulations, and thus their good job was awarded.
 
Final Four 2014 is a pure basketball event, the peak of a tremendous season, full of lots of great emotions and basketball moments. It is the award for the hard work of teams, referees, management, etc.
EUROHOLD Balkan League is lead by the Olympic Principle of fair play and team spirits free of political, ethnic, religious or any other type of discrimination. We firmly stand for a fair non-politically-biased sports tournament. 
 
We wish all the participants good luck and all the fans in the gym or in front of the TVs to enjoy this basketball celebration!
