Anadolu Efes, that value the social responsibility through basketball as much as sportive successes, has become the first Turkish team to be nominated for the One Team Awards by Euroleague.

In 2016-2017 season Anadolu Efes made their first One Team project with Koruncuk Foundation Children giving 8-week education about teamwork, friendship, helping, motivation, concentration, and communication through basketball metaphors. The research that made at the end of the project has revealed that the participant children strengthen their social and personal developments.

One Team Ambassador Doğuş Balbay also was a coach…

With the education that was giving by Anadolu Efes U16 team and One Team program’s coach Ozan Havuzlu and Koruncuk Foundation teachers, One Team Ambassador Doğuş Balbay also participated.

Doğuş Balbay has shared his life and basketball experience with the participants and became a role model to Koruncuk Foundation Children.

Communication works are in the selection criteria…

In this matter, Euroleague managements’ evaluation has focused on the subjects such as education schemes, benefit to the participants, collaboration with partner organization, and One Team program communication works.

Within this criteria, in the case of Anadolu Efes winning the One Team Award in the competition with the teams of FC Barcelona Lassa, Real Madrid, Valencia Basket ve Zalgiris Kaunas, it will be the first Turkish team to win it.

Prize Winner will be revealed in September…

2016-2017 season One Team Program Award’s winner will be explained in the “One Team Annual Seminar” in September after the evaluation that will be done during the summer.

Anadolu Efes Sports Club will continue to make the social responsibility projects to create an awareness and will continue to meet basketball and education on the same platform.
