WE ARE PRESENTING YOU
The Basketball Organization of Yugoslavia, the National Team,
Clubs, individuals… represent the top quality product of a
worldwide famous sports-basketball trademark, value and image.
The Yugoslav Basketball Federation has achieved outstanding
results in numerous areas of sports in general and basketball
in particular, and it appears quite logical that it has been
the first one that recognized a need for establishment of
the Yugoslav Basketball Foundation.
The Foundation, as a type of activity whose primary objective
is to render assistance in development and improvement of
basketball sports, has almost been unknown in our country
despite the fact that, the basketball has for long been a
synonymous of success and professionalism worldwide.
To utter basketball, it immediately relates to NBA, and then,
who else but Yugoslavia. The supreme, professional sport,
alongside the achievement of exceptional results, both, in
terms of sports, and spirit and ethics, also implies, primarily
through its marketing, the obligation of gaining profit, both,
for the party investing in the sports, as well as for contestants
and all others involved in that sport. Being aware of the
situation our society, and thereby its basketball is currently
undergoing, we have estimated that the existence of an absolutely
non-profitable organization, such as the Yugoslav Basketball
Foundation, might be the appropriate route to keep the Yugoslav
basketball at the top of the world basketball.
The Yugoslav Basketball Foundation should provide financial
resources for development and improvement of sports to make
sure that present values and accomplishments are maintained
and preserved. The funds granted to the Foundation by various
donors, are used for realization of professional plans and
programmes, if not otherwise defined. Moreover, the donors
are submitted a detailed report on the manner in which the
funds have been utilized and the results that have been achieved.

Be with Golden Basketball Players to reach new golden jubilees.
