Team Armenia announces first official training camp in prelude to 2014 FIBA tourney

Some good news from the developing basketball program in Armenia came to BallinEurope today as the country’s federation announced the first official training camp for the newly-established men’s national team, set for the 2013 off-season in Yerevan. It’s the first step on the path to the 2014 FIBA Europe Division C Men’s Basketball Championship, Team Armenia’s first-ever appearance in the tournament.

Zareh Zargaryan, formerly of CSU Dominguez Hills, stated that “It’s truly an honor to be able to play for Armenia. I have been dreaming of this since my childhood days.” Team Armenia coach Carl Bardakian echoed the sentiments in saying that “Our coaching staff and players are fully aware of the significance and responsibility of competing under the tri-colored flag of Armenia.”

    Yerevan is an awesome city and I recommend it to anyone, and you would be hard pressed to find a more beautiful and historically fascinating country….. but they are going to get destroyed in a FIBA sanctioned tourney…. their football team is the butt of so many jokes in that town already, I just can’t see their basketball team experiencing any kind of success whatsoever.
