Guineans will help students of the Mining University to enter the NBA

At the Ural State Mining University basketball is not just a game. It is difficult to find anything similar to such a close-knit fraternity of students. Here there are students of different courses, nationalities, and social positions. And recently they have been joined by the representatives of the Republic of Guinea.

It is no secret that this year 22 Guineans have become students of the Mining University. Our young people have met them very friendly and helped them to integrate into a united family of future miners. In their home country, foreign guests led an active lifestyle and went in for sports. Three of them: Talibe Fofana, Norbert Sidibe, and Antoine Silla have decided to help students of the Mining University in their desire to enter the NBA. Now they train with our students and soon may start to take part in the competitions. The team of the Ural State Mining University hopes that new friends will teach them new techniques and help to win the coveted trophy.

In their home country, Antoine, Norbert, and Talibe played not only basketball. They are excellent football and volleyball players. Their teams used to win local championships.

Students of the Ural Mining University believe that new foreign players in their team will have a positive effect on the overall game. Besides, it is a necessary experience of communicating with the guests from the African country, which will undeniably unite young people even more. Talibe, Antoine, and Norbert add that it is easier for sportsmen to understand each other during the game on the field, and this helps them to adapt better to communication with Russian students.
