Amiram Halevi thanked the hosts for the extraordinary welcome and open heart and added that thanks to the excellent personal relationship, the cooperation will also be successful and the agreement will move from the paper to the field.
The emphasis of the agreement will be on promoting coaches, because without good coaches it is impossible to succeed.
We will hold meetings and joint camps, especially in women's basketball, which the two associations want to promote.
Finally, Halevy added that he invites the heads of basketball in Morocco to Israel.
