Holidays are good times to relax, rest and have fun... And also a good chance to develop yourself even more as a basketball player. That is why VIBBALL Echternach offers extra practices in the Easter School Holidays for our players. Check our practice schedule for the next 2 weeks (April 5 - April 17).

We would like to introduce Sonka Anetta, our VIBBALL Nutritionist. She graduated in 2017 at the University of Medicine and Pharmacy in Targu Mures with a Nutrition and Dietetics specialisation. She has played basketball under coach Ildiko Vass for BBALL6, a basketball club in Romania that Ildiko has founded. Together they won the first place at U18 Romanian National Championship, second place at U17 Romanian National Championship and two times first place in Division B with the BBALL6 team. She now lives and works in England and she is helping us to increase the healthy lifestyle of our players and coaches. Make sure to read this first article of her and use some of her tips and guidelines.

'Moni' has been the most well-known and well-recognized player in Romanian Basketball in the last 30 years. She has accomplished a lot as a professional basketball player since she has played in several European Championships with the Romanian Senior National team. She had 270 selections while also showing her high level in Romanian and other European club teams. Nowadays, she is working as a coach and she has started a basketball academy in Arad, Romania. We are extremely fortunate that she has become one of our VIBBALL ambassadors and joined our VIBBALL family.

All the children were glad to get back in action and start practicing again this week. Our fundamental practices are held in safe conditions and we follow all the necessary requirements and rules. There were a lot of happy faces at the end of practices, when our VIBBALL mascot Leopárd was introduced. The players received this panther mascot to bring a little VIBBALL feeling into their homes too. Let's go VIBBALL Panthers!

We wish you a Happy New Year. Our coaches are excited to start our practices again. We will keep you informed about the exact details of the training program as soon as possible.
