Last week, Aydın Örs, Turkish National Basketball Team’s Coach, and
Doğan Hakyemez, Turkish National Basketball Team Manager, were
invited to the university by Radio Bilkent. They offered students
many insights into the Turkish Basketball team and talked about
future plans.
Concerning those plans, Doğan Hakyemez spoke about their intention
to open Basketball Schools (12 Dev Adam Basketbol Okulu) in twelve
cities: “Our mission is to spread basketball all over Turkey”.
Aydın Örs mentioned that “There were three factors that played a
major role in the team’s success in the European Championship. They
are: having good teamwork; staying focused on the goal (winning) and
being a well-rounded team.”
