The House of Armenia celebrated and officially introduced the
Armenian Men's National Basketball team to the community and media on
Wednesday. The team, comprised of both Armenian-American, Armenian
national and international athletes is led by Head Coach Carl
Bardakian, a Los Angeles based and well-experienced basketball coach.
Armenia's new National Team reflects the strong and further developing
bonds between the Republic of Armenia and Diaspora, Asbarez reported.
The men's team is looking forward to achieving the same success which
the Armenian Women's National Basketball team had in 2011, by winning
the silver medal in the European Championship. In order to reach their
goal of entry into the European Championships in June 2012, the men's
team is currently accepting offers for sponsorships. The young men
chosen for the team have expressed immense passion, determination and
undoubtedly possess the talent to make it far within the International
Basketball Federation.
The official introduction of the National Team was witnessed by some
of the most prominent and successful sportsmen present and past,
who offered words of encouragement to the young men as they embark
on the European Championships this summer. Among the sportsmen and
athletic figures were Sergei Bondarenko (Ararat 73) and Vanes Norik
Martirosyan, as well as world and Olympic champions such as Vasken
Sogoyan and Arthur Akopian. On behalf of the community and Consulate,
Consul General Hovhannissian conveyed immense pride and faith in the
talents and capabilities of the men's team.
