  • How to Win the Basketball Euroleague? Game Performance Determining Sports Results During 2003–2016 Matches
    Journal of Human Kinetics volume 77/2021, 287-296 DOI: 10.2478/hukin-2021-0050 287 Section III – Sports Training How to Win the Basketball Euroleague? Game Performance Determining Sports Results During 2003–2016 Matches by Kazimierz Mikołajec1, Damian Banyś1, Justyna Żurowska-Cegielska1, Marek Zawartka3, Karol Gryko2 The main aim of this study was to establish game-related statistics that determined sport results in the Basketball EuroLeague between 2003 and 2016. The study encompasses matches played by 10 teams during 13 consecutive seasons of the EuroLeague. Twenty-two offensive and defensive game related variables were registered. Calculations were performed to establish which of the variables determined performance in the Basketball EuroLeague matches within the analysed period. Based on a number of mathematical and statistical analyses, the elements of play that had the highest effect on sports success were selected. The following determinants displayed the most significant correlations with sport results in the EuroLeague within the analysed period: two-point shots made (2PT-made), two- point shot attempts (2PT-attempts), three-point shots made (3PT-made), one-point shots made (1PT-made), one-point shot attempts (1PT-attempts), assists, fouls and field goals made. The game outcome in basketball is influenced by many variables which may not always be significant in a given match. However, the continuous effort to maintain these variables at the highest possible level is advantageous over less-organised teams. Key words: game analysis; Euro League; performance indicators; regression model; optimization.

As 5/6 Greeks declares, that they like this sport, 3/10 say, they have dealt with it, while ½ say, they watch their domestic and international struggles of Greek local and national teams. The above fact is not accidental, as Greece is a country, that has a long tradition in this sport . It is the first Greek national team, that won the European title of men in any sport and the only one that has achieved consecutive pan-European and global awards. Greece is regarded as major strength of world basketball, winning the Eurobasket twice, the World Youth Championship in 1995, 2008, 2015 and having reached the Final Four in three of the last 6 World Championships of FIBA (1994, 1998, 2006). In 1987 Greece was the host country of Eurobasket 1987, but nobody expected what would follow. The triumph of Greece in the European championship of 1987 was of crucial importance Greek sport. The victory of the national team with two points (103-101) over the USSR in the final, along with the rest of the course during the competition, made the basketball our national sport. In the following years, and in the mid-90s, they came numerous awards in international competitions, both nationally and collectively.

    Findbuch zum Archiv des Deutschen Basketball- Bundes e.V. (DBB e.V.) erstellt von den Archivinspektoranwärtern und -anwärterinnen des 53. Fachhochschullehrgangs (FHL) der Archivschule Marburg – Hochschule für Archivwissenschaft – unter Anleitung von Dr. Dominik Haffer Marburg, im Januar 2017 Deutscher Basketball-Bund (DBB) e.V. Der Deutsche Basketball-Bund (DBB) ist ein eingetragener Verein und fungiert als Dachverband für 16 Landesverbände und etwa 2.000 einzelne Vereine und Abteilungen. Der DBB hat neun Nationalmannschaften und organisiert verschiedene deutsche Basketball-Ligen. Er ist zuständig für Regeln, Ausrichtung von Länderspielen und anderer – auch großer internationaler – Events, technische Überwachung, Entwicklung etc. Der DBB wird durch ein Präsidium geführt, bestehend aus einem Präsidenten und aktuell fünf Vizepräsidenten. Diese betreuen verschiedene Bereiche wie Finanzen oder Jugend. Zudem existiert ein Beirat für den Spitzensport. Das Präsidium vertritt den DBB nach außen, trifft Grundsatzentscheidungen und beaufsichtigt die Mitarbeiter der Geschäftsstelle. Die Geschäftsstelle des DBB wird durch einen Generalsekretär geleitet, dem drei weitere Geschäftsbereiche unterstellt sind (Leistungssport, Jugend, Finanzen). Sie übernimmt die eigentlichen Verwaltungsaufgaben und den Geschäftsbetrieb. Zudem findet jährlich eine ordentliche Sitzung des Bundestages des DBB statt, an dem Vertreter des DBB und der einzelnen Landesverbände zusammenkommen und über Fragen der Organisation beraten, Beschlüsse fassen und die Finanzplanung genehmigen. Geschichte des DBB e.V. Frühgeschichte des Basketballs in Deutschland Am 1. September 1934 wurde Deutschland Mitglied der damaligen FIBB, der heutigen FIBA, des Basketball-Weltverbandes. Problematisch ist, dass damals einfach Abteilungen einzelner Handball- Verbände automatisch in die FIBB übernommen wurden. Für Deutschland heißt das, dass es zu diesem frühen Zeitpunkt weder einen richtigen Verband noch eine nennenswerte Organisation gab.

To the extent that sport becomes captive to political corruption, it becomes an instrument to prop up tyrannies and to undermine the rule of law. Accordingly, there is a global public interest in establishing independent, democratic oversight of sport organisations\' compliance with legal and ethical standards. -- Abstract: The Global Organization of Parliamentarians Against Corruption (GOPAC) is a worldwide association of legislators who have come together to combat corruption, strengthen democracy, and uphold the rule of law. We have sixty national chapters and individual members in almost every parliament of the world. Historically, we have focussed on issues such as anti-money laundering, anti-corruption in public procurement, and anti-kleptocracy at the highest levels of the state.
