Airidas, one of Zalgiris Kaunas's One Team participants in the 2022-23 Turkish Airlines EuroLeague season, took full advantage of the club's program and ended up discovering a new lifelong passion. This Part 2 video takes a deeper look of his day-to-day life and his One Team journey, as well as his experience at the 2023 EuroLeague Final Four in Kaunas, Lithuania.
Andra Kniukstaite, Zalgiris's One Team Manager, said: "Airidas’s example, as well as all the others, only encourages us to act more and continue to do what we started, because it is important, valuable and beneficial for society."
One Team, supported by Turkish Airlines as the One Team Founding Patron and with the collaboration of Special Olympics as Proud Partner, uses basketball to achieve real social impact in our communities. With an innovative model of interconnectedness across an entire continent, Euroleague Basketball and its clubs have developed a complete CSR program that brings together activities from each team in an integrated, impactful way, working under the theme of "community integration" that actively addresses targets of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goal 10 on Reduced Inequalities.
