A very important piece of news was conveyed by the authority BasketNews!
According to the well-known website, the Hellas is one of the big favorites to organize one of the four Pre-Olympic tournaments of July, in view of the Olympic Games of 2024!
Specifically, the report in question states that our country, together with Latvia, Spain and Puerto Ricoare the four countries that currently have the lead for organizing the equal number of tournaments, which will decide the last tickets for the Paris Games.
In fact, the publication also refers to cities, stressing that the most likely ones are Athens, Valencia and Rigaso as to host the tournaments in question which will take place from 2 until July 7, 2024! The final announcement, however, is expected on Monday, November 27, that is, the day when the draw for the Pre-Olympic tournaments will take place in Switzerland.
It is noted that such a development was also “photographed” by Vangelis Lioliospresident of the EEC, speaking on the federation’s radio and stating how “I have no feedback from FIBA ​​because people follow the procedure and do well. But if you asked me to say what I think will happen in 13 days, I’ll just smile.”.
We remind you how 24 teams divided into 4 tournaments they will claim the last tickets for the Olympic Games, among which the Hellas. In detail, the teams are as follows: Poland, Croatia, Bahrain, Cameroon, Bahamas, Greece, Italy, Latvia, Slovenia, Lithuania, Montenegro, Spain, Georgia, Finland, Brazil, Puerto Rico, Dominican Republic, Mexico, Lebanon, New Zealand , Philippines, Egypt, Angola, Ivory Coast.
Since the Hellas actually take the event, it will significantly increase the chances of qualifying, but also lining up with the best possible composition. It is obvious that an event within the country, in a packed stadium, will act as a pole of attraction for the players who want to make the dream of participating in the Olympic Games.
