Under the gaze of its president EOC Vangelis Lioliouthe Athletic Club was crowned champion in the Teen TE Lesvos category, winning overtime over Hephaestus 63-55, in a match that took place on Friday at the packed indoor Neapolis Gymnasium.

The awarding of the medals to the two teams and the cup to the champion was done by Vangelis Liolios, while before the start of the match the president of the TE EEC of Lesvos Vassilis Andriotis presented an honorary plaque to the president of the EEC.

I’m so glad I came. I spoke to the teams, I saw that there is appetite, mood and passion and I think the future will be bright. The message is not given by me, but by the people who filled the stadium. Basketball lives, breathes, as long as we all understand that only together we can raise it. We incentivize teams to focus on their infrastructure. In order for the National team to come here, a better stadium should be designed and implemented, because the island needs it. It is important that with the planning we have and with the cooperation of the teams, the base of children playing basketball will increase. I travel all over Greece, the closer we are to the teams and the athletes, the more we motivate them to continue their fight“, he emphasized to Sport Lesvos.
