During the festival, sports tournaments were held: basketball, soccer, volleyball, yoga. In addition, the fishermen, who fought for a better catch from five in the morning, and the “reptiles”, for whom this was their first start in life, also had the opportunity to compete with each other.
In a traditional 3×3 basketball tournament, there were no injuries, no fun, no big wins or painful losses. In the Grand Cup final, the victory was celebrated by the Dainava team, which does not participate for the first time in the three-to-three basketball tournament of the Pumpėnai Summer Festival.
“If I’m not mistaken, we are participating in the tournament for the third and fourth consecutive year. There were some really tough times in this tournament. Last year, for example, we became small cup champions. This year the lineup was higher, We are happy that we managed to get out of the big cup and beat Pasvalys, who we always lose, and who is a very strong team, “said Justinas Pileckas, player of the Dainava team, after the winning final.
