Promitheas Patron to replace Faros Keratsiniou in Basket League Greece

Promitheas Patron finished in the third place of A2 League 2015-2016 and after the withdrawal of Faros became the second team to follow Kymi in the Basket League.

OFI withdraws from A2 League

The board of OFI (Iraklio) announced that the team withdraws from A2 League 2015-2016 and as a result is relegated to C League. In this season many teams have been relegated and promoted due to economic reasons before the start of the leagues, but OFI is the first team to withdraw after the league started. This is of course bad news for the league since the competition will not be that tough.

Promitheas signed Giorgos Papapetrou

Promitheas signed Giorgos Papapetrou. After its first official game for the A2 2015-2016 Promitheas announced Giorgos Papapetrou, another player that played in the A1 for Korivos Amaliadas. Papapetrou will replace Giannis Dib.
