FIBA U18 Women's: Slovenian basketball player Ajsa Sivka undergoes transformation
Posted : 05 July 2023
The year 2023 is shaping up to be a significant and transformative one for Slovenian basketball player Ajsa Sivka. Despite making waves on the women's basketball scene last year at the FIBA U17 Women's Basketball World Cup, Sivka has truly come into the spotlight this year. She became the youngest player at the FIBA Women's EuroBasket 2023 and has now taken center stage at the FIBA U18 Women's European Championship 2023.
Sivka's remarkable journey began last summer when she signed with Italian powerhouse Beretta Famila Schio. Throughout 2023, she has continued to make waves, experiencing her first EuroLeague Women Final Four and winning domestic silverware in Italy. Playing alongside skilled teammates and defending against top-level players has been a valuable learning experience for her.
However, the highlight of Sivka's year so far was her participation in the FIBA Women's EuroBasket on home soil in Ljubljana. Despite Slovenia's team not securing a victory, Sivka cherished the opportunity to compete against her idols, including players from the EuroLeague Women and WNBA. Her performance stood out, earning her recognition as one of the breakout players of the tournament, showcasing her diverse skills, including scoring, rebounding, and facilitating the game.
Currently competing at the FIBA U18 Women's European Championship, Sivka remains enthusiastic and focused on representing Slovenia. She embraces the chance to wear the national team jersey and values team chemistry and unity. Slovenia has been unbeaten in the tournament so far, and Sivka believes in their potential to go far if they continue to play together as a team.
With the year 2023 only halfway through, it is expected that Sivka will continue to inspire and lead her team to further success. Her performances have already made a lasting impact, and she has established herself as a prominent figure in Slovenian basketball.
