As we previously reported, PIS / Prague Open became part of the Open Series what is covered by the international
umbrella streetball organization Streetbasket Alliance, and it was played under international rules specially
adapted for such an event format. For the first time, official streetball games in the Czech Republic were played
on a “net time” and also a time for offense was set up (16 seconds). Two referees and a timekeeper decided on each
court.

As we have seen in recent years, nice streetball without any useless insidious moments was played and everything was
marked by the rules of fair play and play for fun. So there´s no wonder that random passers-by became
enthusiastic spectators who found among their favorite teams and came to support the following day.

After Saturday games, it´s more than clear who will fight in the play offs and who can expect the battles for
placings. Check it here:
