Spektakularan vikend u Novoj Gradiški: završena sedma postaja PRO 3×3 Toura
Nova Gradiška proteklog je petka i subote bila domaćin sedme postaje ovogodišnjeg PRO 3×3 Tour driven by Opel. Dvodnevni košarkaški događaj na Trgu kralja Tomislava još je jednom spojio vrhunski 3×3 basket, bogat popratni program i humanitarnu akciju “Svi smo uz tebe Hrva!”, potvrdivši kako sport može okupiti zajednicu oko zajedničkog cilja.
Treću godinu zaredom PRO 3×3 Tour održan je zajedno s humanitarnim streetball turnirom “Svi smo uz tebe Hrva!”, čiji je cilj pomoći Hrvi, članu KK Strmac Nova Gradiška koji je nakon teške ozljede ostao trajno vezan uz zahtjevnu rehabilitaciju i svakodnevnu skrb. Tijekom oba dana održane su humanitarna prodaja majica i tombola, a sav prikupljeni prihod namijenjen je pomoći Hrvi i njegovoj obitelji.
O važnosti ove akcije govorio je član Udruge PRO 3×3 Tomislav Prpić.
“Fizičko stanje Hrve je takvo da ono ne može na bolje. Ali mi se trudimo pomoći njegovoj obitelji i ljudima koji brinu o njemu da financijski podnesu troškove skrbi kako bi Hrvi omogućili što kvalitetniji život i da se njegovo stanje ne pogoršava.”
Posebno mjesto u programu ponovno je imao Kid’s Day, koji je okupio velik broj najmlađih zaljubljenika u košarku. Djeca su kroz igru učila pravila 3×3 košarke, sudjelovala u natjecanjima i pokazala svoje vještine uz glasnu podršku roditelja i brojnih gledatelja.
Na humanitarnom turniru “Svi smo uz tebe Hrva!” naslov je osvojila ekipa 3 i pol muškarca, koja je nakon produžetka u finalu svladala Refresh rezultatom 14:12.
U ženskoj Open konkurenciji slavila je ekipa 3×3 Bosna, koja je u finalu pobijedila BW Kokvistadorice 20:11. Za pobjedničku ekipu nastupile su Sara Herceg, Berina Mustafić, Katarina Trehub i Šejla Bujakšu.
Naslov u U19 kategoriji osvojila je ekipa 3×3 Vinkovci, koja je kroz turnir prošla bez poraza. U finalu je svladala ekipu Diši majstore rezultatom 15:9 i izborila nastup na završnom turniru PRO 3×3 Toura u Novalji. Za pobjedničku momčad igrali su Dino Ramljak, Gregor Lusavec, Mateo Čović i Tin Hodak.
Najjača Elite konkurencija ponudila je niz kvalitetnih i neizvjesnih utakmica, a naslov je osvojila Derventa MBet, koja je u finalu pobijedila mađarsku reprezentativnu ekipu HUN 3. Za pobjedničku momčad nastupili su Jovan Kalanj, Mihajlo Topalić, Nikola Nedinić i Vladimir Vujičić.
Uz vrhunsku košarku, publika je tijekom oba dana uživala u atraktivnim nastupima akrobatske skupine Dunking Devils, čiji je spektakularni skok preko djece gledatelja bio jedan od vrhunaca programa. Atmosferu su svojom energičnim nastupima zagrijale i Mažoretkinje Grada Nova Gradiška i te članovi Plesnog studija Nova Gradiška, koji su upotpunili bogat sadržaj za sve generacije.
Po završetku turnira zadovoljstvo uspješno organiziranim događajem izrazila je zamjenica gradonačelnice Nove Gradiške Sabina Vlaović.
“Prezadovoljni smo kako je sve prošlo. Posebna zahvala organizatorima na ovom spektaklu. Poslužilo nas je i vrijeme, najavljena kiša nas je zaobišla. Hvala svima koji su na bilo koji način doprinijeli ovom humanitarno-sportskom događaju. Vidimo se sljedeće godine.”
Velik doprinos organizaciji na lokalnoj razini dali su Grad Nova Gradiška, Turistička zajednica Grada Nova Gradiška, Brodsko-posavska županija i KK Strmac Nova Gradiška, koji su zajedno s Udrugom PRO 3×3 omogućili još jedno uspješno izdanje turnira.

Spectacular Weekend in Nova Gradiška: Seventh Stop of the PRO 3×3 Tour Successfully Completed
Nova Gradiška hosted the seventh stop of this year’s PRO 3×3 Tour driven by Opel last Friday and Saturday. The two-day basketball event, held at King Tomislav Square, once again combined top-level 3×3 basketball, an exciting entertainment program, and the humanitarian initiative “We Are All with You, Hrva!”, demonstrating how sport can bring an entire community together around a common cause.
For the third consecutive year, the PRO 3×3 Tour was held alongside the humanitarian streetball tournament “We Are All with You, Hrva!”, organized to support Hrva, a member of KK Strmac Nova Gradiška who suffered a severe injury on the basketball court and now requires permanent care and rehabilitation. Throughout both days, charity T-shirt sales and a raffle were organized, with all proceeds dedicated to supporting Hrva and his family.
Speaking about the importance of the initiative, Tomislav Prpić, a member of the PRO 3×3 Association, said:
“Hrva’s physical condition cannot improve. What we are trying to do is help his family and the people who care for him by easing the financial burden of his daily care, allowing them to provide him with the best possible quality of life and prevent his condition from deteriorating further.”
A special part of the event was once again Kid’s Day, which brought together a large number of young basketball enthusiasts. Through fun activities, children learned the rules of 3×3 basketball, showcased their basketball skills, and enjoyed the enthusiastic support of their parents and the many spectators.
The humanitarian “We Are All with You, Hrva!” streetball tournament was won by 3 i pol muškarca, who defeated Refresh 14:12 after overtime in the final.
In the Women’s Open competition, 3×3 Bosna claimed the title with a 20:11 victory over BW Kokvistadorice. The winning team consisted of Sara Herceg, Berina Mustafić, Katarina Trehub and Šejla Bujakšu.
The U19 title went to 3×3 Vinkovci, who completed the tournament undefeated. They defeated Diši majstore 15:9 in the final to secure a place at the PRO 3×3 Tour Finals in Novalja. The winning roster featured Dino Ramljak, Gregor Lusavec, Mateo Čović and Tin Hodak.
The highly competitive Elite category delivered a series of exciting and closely contested games, with Derventa MBet taking the title after defeating Hungary’s national team HUN 3 in the final. The champions were Jovan Kalanj, Mihajlo Topalić, Nikola Nedinić and Vladimir Vujičić.
In addition to outstanding basketball, spectators enjoyed spectacular performances by the world-famous Dunking Devils, whose breathtaking leap over children from the audience was one of the highlights of the weekend. The entertainment program also featured energetic performances by the Nova Gradiška Majorettes and the Nova Gradiška Dance Studio, adding even more excitement and atmosphere to the event.
At the conclusion of the tournament, Deputy Mayor of Nova Gradiška Sabina Vlaović expressed her satisfaction with the successful organization of the event.
“We are extremely pleased with how everything turned out. Special thanks to the organizers for putting together such a fantastic event. The weather was on our side, as the forecasted rain passed us by. Thank you to everyone who contributed in any way to this humanitarian and sporting event. We look forward to seeing you again next year.”
The event was made possible through the support of the City of Nova Gradiška, the Nova Gradiška Tourist Board, Brod-Posavina County and KK Strmac Nova Gradiška, who joined forces with the PRO 3×3 Association to organize another successful edition of the tournament.
Following Nova Gradiška, the PRO 3×3 Tour driven by Opel enters the final stretch of the 2026 season.
