Objectives

In the next, 2007-2008 season "U" Mobitelco Cluj wishes to achieve good results in EuroCup, although this competition represents higher quality than EuroCup Challenge which was dissolved by the international federation (FIBA). Automatically, it was necessary to get more valuable players and also to find the financial resources needed for this superior competition in 2007-2008 season. This is why the club re-organized itself on European professional principles, one of the measures being to form Romania’s first basketball academy, Cluj Basketball Academy (ABC in Romanian).

Our immediate objectives are:

• to qualify for the group stages of EuroCup
• to obtain a top three position in the Romanian Championship, with an expressed aim to bring an other national title to Cluj
• to be in the elite of Romanian basketball and to progress in Europe
• to develop through our basketball academy a huge player basis at all age groups, creating a performance pyramid
• to create a professional managerial structure able to self-finance the club in the future
• to set a common performance-based goal for all basketball structures within the city and country
• to organize street ball contests, national and international basketball festivals and scouting camps for our teams

With over six decades of tradition and excellent result, "U" Mobitelco represents forefront of Cluj's male basketball, wishing to put back the city both at national and international level on the "basketball map". Founded as a non for profit club, "U" Mobitelco desires to draw the attention of local authorities, institutions and companies connected to Cluj, winning them over. Besides the big football team, Universitatea Cluj, the male basketball team "U" Mobitelco represents a Cluj-brand recognized in whole Europe.
