No :) Now the tournament was enlarged to 24 teams, as influenced by Ukrainians, Bulgarians and Italians. So:
Italy, Bosnia, Bulgaria, Poland, Ukraine, Latvia and Georgia qualified directly

Re: euro basket 2011
You are right, we never had such a strong team before. So it's good that they will get a chance to perform in a big tournament next year. This was quite unexpected, and I'm not sure how well we will do in Lithuania, but it's a very big boost for Georgian sports. Apart from rugby, we never qualified for a big tournament (World or European Championships) in any team sport before.Fabsaprangeti wrote:

Depends what kind of tournament you are talking about. We have already organised a 4-team international friendly tournament in July.Fabsaprangeti wrote:One of the Bhoys wrote: Gio, To your mind it would be possible that Georgia would organize an International Tournament of Basket-Ball in the Future ?
We are now negotiating with FIBA about organising youth (under-16 or under-18) European Championships, and I think it will happen in the near future - we just need 3 good arenas for this, so it will not be a big problem.
For official senior tournaments like Eurobasket, we need at least 5 high-capacity arenas in at least 3 different cities, and major facility upgrades, so I don't think it will happen any time soon...but the government is putting money into basketball development right now, so who knows, maybe in 8-10 years we could be in a position to apply for this.

I don't know if it's possible for 2 countries to organize together a tournament like Eurobasket.

Re: euro basket 2011
That's a good question, actually. Until now, it was not necessary, 1 country was always enough...but now that they have expanded the tournament, who knows? The basketball in Azerbaijan is making good progress right now, so it would be interesting to find out if it could be possible to host Eurobasket together with them, maybe in 2015 or in 2017.Fabsaprangeti wrote:

There is actually youth basketball in Telavi, and they will probably also have a Superleague team soon!sandro war wrote:yes but building a sportis sasaxle in telavi is for no use there is no basketbal there and oslo the ones in batumi and kutaisi are to small to host those matches there it is to optimistic to think about hosting those tournements in georgia may be in 5 years but now we have to be happy whit u20 tournemets to.
Right now we are not in a position to bid for a big tournament, I agree, but if the progress continues and this becomes a realistic idea, then the arena in Kutaisi can be expanded. In Batumi, they will have to build a new one anyway, and if Misha's successor will love this city as much as him, then I'm sure this can be arranged too.
