This decision came because of several incidents during 2023 in sports\nhalls, where there was also physical violence between fans.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The representatives of the basketball clubs are divided on not allowing\nguest fans in the sport halls.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Arbnor Rifati from Prizren basketball club, told KosovaPress that the KBF\ndecision is one of the best that can be taken against this situation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Contrary to Rifati, the spokesperson of the Peja basketball club, Ardit\nLipa, says that despite respecting the federation’s decision, the ban on fans\nis causing them financial damage as the lack of visiting fans is important in\nterms of ticket sales.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The president of the Kosovo Basketball Federation, Arben Fetahu, has\nextinguished all hopes that this decision can be changed. According to him,\nacts of violence in sports halls are seriously damaging the image of Kosovar\nbasketball.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The head of the KBF has also criticized the justice bodies for\ninefficiency in dealing with acts of hooliganism and this, according to him, is\ncausing them to be constantly repeated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
