The government representative’s reasoning for not extending the measures to basketball and volleyball

During the briefing on the measures taken by the government to combat fan violence, Pavlos Marinakis was asked why they were not extended to basketball and volleyball and responded accordingly.

The announcement of the government’s measures to combat fan violence led to the decision to suspend all Super League and Greek Cup football matches until February 12.

However, during the briefing by Pavlos Marinakis, the other sports were not mentioned and the government representative continued with the necessary clarifications.

Pavlos Marinakis’ position in detail:

We believe that these episodes also extend to other sports: football, sometimes basketball. But at its core it’s about violence on football pitches. I don’t think what happened there is a volley problem. They just found the opportunity that day, an army was moved and did what they did outside the stadium.

As for basketball, it appears that very important, critical “finals” can be played while keeping fans safe. With intensity, very great interest, but this is an example that shows that we can have very marginal games between the top teams, not just Greek teams, and in the league, without what happens in corresponding football games.

So we didn’t think it was right to apply this to basketball and other sports“.
