Basketball In Serbia And Montenegro

The National Team of Yugoslavia (Serbia, Montenegro, Croatia, Slovenia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Macedonia) won the gold medal at the 1980 Olympic Games in Moscow, three World Championship titles – Ljubljana 1970, Manila 1978, Buenos Aires 1990, and five European Championship titles – Barcelona 1973, Beograd 1975, Liege 1977, Zagreb 1989 and Rome 1991.

The two- republic Yugoslavia, in a short period of its existence, took another two world "crowns" – Athens 1998, Indianapolis 2002, and three European Championships – Athens 1995, Barcelona 1997, and Istanbul 2001.

With a total of 14 great titles, our basketball national team is the most successful team sport in the region. The remarkable collection is completed with silver and bronze medals won at the Olympic Games (4-1), World (3-2) and European Championships (5-4), thus representing a unique, everlasting testimony of the triumphant achievement of the players, coaches, and their entire organization.
