There is a decision: After winning the cup, Hapoel Gilboa Springs won today (Friday) the Youth Basketball Premier League championship after a 95:99 victory over Hapoel Tel Aviv, in what sealed the season in the best way possible. Thus came to an end the final series with 1: 2 of the Northerners in the third and decisive game.

About 1,000 spectators filled the high school hall in the third and decisive game, and they saw history. Gilboa Springs lifted the title for the first time in its history and it really did not go easy for her, when the meeting was close and tense throughout. In the end, Yoav Berman (30 points) was her man and also garnered the MVP title of the final.

Hapoel Tel Aviv was accompanied by Lotan Amsalem, Gil Benny and senior team coach Danny Franco, along with management members. Gilboa started with a storm and also thanks to a good defense, they gained a double-digit advantage already in the first quarter, but Hapoel Tel Aviv returned to business under the leadership of Eili Dolinsky, who controlled the color. The first half ended when the Reds from Tel Aviv led 45:48.

In the second half, Gilboa again opened burners led by Lampert and Berman with a collection of threes. Hapoel Tel Aviv did not give up and showed a lot of character in the closing moments, but Gilboa Springs this time withstood the pressure with defensive stops that arranged the title, not before we got an unusual moment: Hapoel Tel Aviv fans lit torches and caused the power to fall twice, and therefore the final was stopped. 10 minutes It should be noted that alongside the great atmosphere in the hall, there were ugly calls from the stands of Hapoel fans.
