Darius Maskoliūnas, who made his debut as a national team strategist last winter, hopes to use training camp to get to know the team’s candidates better.
He invited 16 players to Palanga, but for various reasons, Deividas Sirvydis, Rokas Giedraitis and Gytis Masiulis will not be able to attend.
“We want to see a coach system. The coach wants to involve all the players, to feel what they can. This will be a good preparation for the season. Since June, I myself have been playing sports twice a day. The condition is not one hundred percent, but the sporting rhythm has already appeared a bit, “said Arnas Butkevičius, who was one of the first to arrive at the hotel.
Along with A. Butkevičius, his former club member Eimantas Bendžius came to Palanga. The striker who left Vilnius “Rytas” to Sasaris “Dinamo” explained that this camp is a mutual benefit for players and coaches: players will prepare for the new season in clubs and coaches will see what basketball players are worth with less experience in the national team.
From July 24 to 25, the Lithuanian national team will participate in a tournament organized by the Estonian Basketball Federation in Tallinn, where it will meet with Latvian basketball players and hosts.
The next official Lithuanian match will take place on November 26, when the Lithuanians will host the Danes at home, and on November 29, the Belgians. It will be a qualifying match for the European Championship.
