New Basketball Academy and International Tournament in Pazardzhik in September

In Pazardzhik, a new sports project focusing on developing young talents and prevention through basketball has started. Two local teams, MADGREEKS and the Children's Basketball Academy | MADGREEKS, are joining forces to launch activities in the city with a focus on sports development and a positive inner environment for children. The project is led by Alexander Kostaras, a specialist with over 40 years of experience in basketball and a master's degree in marketing and management, and Georgi Marianski, a former Pazardzhik competitor who graduated in kinesiology at New England College in the USA. After many years of work with professionals and with children, the team combines knowledge and a vision to create a sustainable sporting climate in the region.

The official launch of the children's basketball academy and the Sports Development program will be marked at one of Pazardzhik’s emblematic places – Ostrov Svoboda Park. On September 12 and 13, the first MADGREEKS 3×3 FIBA Tournament will be held there. The event is open to everyone who loves basketball and wants to form a team, register to participate, or support the competitors as spectators. The main message of the initiative is: “First we build personalities, then athletes.”
