VTB United League General Director Ilona Korstin:
– The decision to end the VTB United League season that early was not easy for us, but it was the only right one in the current situation. All basketball fans now miss their favorite game, and we try to keep basketball in the fans’ life despite all the difficulties. We launched Stay Online broadcast on social networks, we are broadcasting the best games of previous years, and we also organized the first basketball cyber tournament in Europe with the participation of real players from the VTB League.
Together with our long-term partner, the betting company FONBET, we support the #remotebasketball project and continue to believe that our favorite game will return to the arenas of the VTB United League.

Marketing Director of BC FONBET Alina Yakirevich:
– Despite the fact that the current situation has significantly affected our business, it does not change the main thing that FONBET was and remains as a company that is responsible for its customers. We were one of the first bookmakers who began the process of closing our betting stations without waiting for the law to come. We actively encourage customers to go online, reduce the number of contacts, stay at home whenever possible and protect their health.
