\n

The EuroLeague Head Coaches Board has to communicate the need for a change in the way official protests are asked to be filed by the EuroLeague.<\/p>\n

As it was evident in the game between Virtus Bologna and Zalgiris Kaunas, the head coach who wants to protest the result needs to type the text himself on the official scorer\u2019s sheet of the competition. We see that this is handled differently in other leagues around the world, but for sure, seeing a coach typing down a protest in the game on a computer is not the solution we want to see.<\/p>\n

We urge the EuroLeague to revert to the previous protocol about protests so that table officials can type it down, and at the end of the season, we hope that the protocol can be upgraded in a way that doesn\u2019t obstruct the game.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
