The beginning of our National Team's preparation for the forthcoming Eurobasket of Madrid, was not the best possible for Dimos Dikoudis, as he suffers from some troubles on his sole and today is the first time he actually managed to complete the whole training program of the team.
"My impressions of the up to now preparations are unpleasant for me, as I suffer from some troubles on my sole and thus I cannot train regularly" declared the international power forward and hastened to add: "I follow personal training program under the treatment of the physiotherapists of the National Team and today is the first day I participated fully in the training program. These troubles I felt, have now diminished and I hope that the will not reappear, so as to be able to train on 100%. At Karpenisi we do great work; the atmosphere is really familiar to us". After that, Dimos Dikoudis referred to the players' action to offer part of the bonus they received for the second position at World Championship of Japan, for the insurance of the players of A2. "This offer from all my play-mates of National Team, i.e. to offer part of the bonus of the World Championship for the insurance of the players of A2, is an important action that should be the spark for the basketball's responsibles to do adequate actions, so as to solve most of basketball's problems" commented the 30 year-old power forward, who is also the president of Basketball Players' League/ Union.
