Ettore Messina, CKSA Moscow:
"It is a great opportunity to help Euroleague Basketball expand itself
and knowledge beyond Europe, as well as a great opportunity for us to
meet coaches in many countries and share our experiences," Messina said.
"The greatest part of this project is not only that it's happening through
a computer, but there will also be hands-on learning at the end, when
the students and I stay together for a four-day session. We will combine
the on-line experience with face-to-face learning to help spread the
word about European basketball."
