Gloria for champions

The schedule of the red-blues' training camp has turned out to be quite traditional for the last few years. The first players in the gym in Krylatskoye will appear already at the beginning of August, although the first basketball practice is officially scheduled for the August 20th. As usual, it will begin after a medical examination and physical tests in the two previous days. A little later, the team will be joined by Aleksa Avramovic, a participant in the Olympic Games as part of the Serbian National Team.

Games for CSKA will begin in the Basket Hall against Parma and MBA-MAI. After a couple of friendlies in the capital, the team will go to Antalya, Turkey, from where they will move to the familiar Gloria Sports Arena in Belek. The second part of the training camp will take place there, enriched with four games (the strongest of the opponents this time is Besiktas, the semi-finalist of the Turkish league). On September 8, CSKA will return to Moscow, from the 11th to the 14th it will take part in the VTB United League SuperCup (the semi-finalists of the last playoffs, the aforementioned Besiktas and the champion of the Adriatic League and Serbia Crvena Zvezda will play in it) and will continue to prepare for the season.

The VTB League regular season for the red-blues will begin on September 21 with a meeting with the finalist of the last season UNICS.
