On the occasion of the first match of the Jeep Elite 2017/2018 playoffs, the AS Monaco Basketball Partners Association presented a cheque of one million euros to the President of AS Monaco Basket SA, Sergei Dyadechko, as the first significant contribution.
Created at the beginning of the season at the instigation of the Prince’s Government, within the framework of the Governance and Communication Convention which binds it to the AS Monaco Basket SA for two years, the association brings together donors and investors who want to support the Roca Team project. The association is under the chairmanship of Dr Ilhami Aygun, who will soon occupy a seat on the Board of Directors of the professional basketball team.
Already a triple winner in the regular Jeep Elite season since its return to the French basketball elite three years ago, Roca Team also finished third and second in the Basketball Champions League on two occasions. The team is looking for a win in the playoffs that started Wednesday, May 23, against Pau-Lacq-Orthez.
