KK Crvena Zvezda Meridianbet President welcome speach
Dear friends, participants and guests,
With great pleasure, traditionally KK Crvena zvezda will organize the „Adidas Next
Generation Tournament Marko Ivković” in 2023. This year marks the 21th edition of the tournament, making it the longest-standing ANGT qualification tournament.
We are long-lasting, and that tells a lot about the great trust and partnership we have
developed with Euroleague.
Like every year, we will not give up on the high standards we set for ourselves during the past years.
Great accommodation, training and game conditions, media coverage and live TV broadcast make our tournament unique and set the standard for others.
I’m thrilled that this year we will have a full capacity of crowd, which will have the opportunity to see new talent and guys that will be the stars of European and World basketball in years to come.
For two decades, this tournament represents the biggest exam for U-18 players from all over the continent as well as a chance for KK Crvena zvezda mts and Belgrade to confirm their capability to organize this kind of competition.
That’s why the Republic of Serbia, city of Belgrade and KK Crvena zvezda mts will this year, as well as in the past years, make sure that all of the participants of the Adidas Next Generation Tournament Marko Ivković feel safe and welcome in our country and our city, despite the challenges we are all facing together.
Welcome to Serbia and Belgrade.
