Volunteers of the UFFO Survival Camp 2017
- Details
There is no event that can run itself. Usually there is a team behind the organization and if we are lucky there are passionate people that love basketball and like to spend some time with helping events, stay close to the basketball, learn some interesting things in the meantime, and make new friendships.
This year Martyna Kubicka and Bartosz Kubik are helping onsite with pair of hands. Usually there is always something to do, so this help is very much appreciated.
Martyna and Bartek are students and basketball adepts. Martyna played basketball at school. This year they have been first in their region and got 10 place in Poland. Before she played in team of Wilki Morskie and was practicing in MKS KUSY Szczecin.
Thank you Martyna and Bartek for being part of the Refere.pl team for this camp.

You need to make right signals in the proper way. All this will be practiced, togehter with body language adequate for each referee and to the moment of the game. Believe me you will be tired at the end of the week. :)
With this excercises we will have support from the top league - Piotr Pastusiak and Kuba Zamojski. None of them I need to introduce as you know them pretty well, specially Kuba. But few words of career highlights, just to remember that this people train the same like you to achieve their goals and dreams and to be where they are now.
