Museum of basketball with unique collection of rare exhibits was opened in Perm. More than a hundred donors helped gather rare and antique basketball items.
After the official opening ceremony and the first guided tour in Molot practice hall, a friendly game in 3×3 format between Ural Great and PARMA was played. Ural Great’s roster was VTB United League president Sergey Kushchenko, Prikamye governor Dmitry Makhonin, RBF president Andrey Kirilenko and Olympic champion Svetlana Antipova.
“You feel a personal touch with this exhibit. Birght and inspiring stories are told here. You’ll need at least couple of hours to feel this atmosphere, see and hear everything,” as told by League president Sergey Kushchenko. “They say, “He who forgets his past has no future.” Perhaps, this museum can become an accelerator, a jump starter for the future, and PARMA will be another bright basketball star. Every fan makes his team do unbelievable things, especially here, in Perm.”
