It’s Very Nice that Armenia Remembers Me: Hatis’ Star Bojana Vulic

16:12 – 26.03.10

Serbian national Bojana Vulic, captain of Yerevan’s Hatis basketball
team, signed a short-term contract with Bosnian basketball team Selik
in January, but is currently in Belgrade and plays for Radivo Korats.
Local Armenian sports news site Armsport.am had a moment to catch up
with Vulic and interview her.

Bojana, why did you leave Selik?
The reason I left was the financial crisis in the team. At first
everything was all right. I had gotten used to the town of Zenitsa.
There were also players there whom I had warm relations with, and I
didn’t feel like a stranger in that team. But gradually everything
worsened because the players weren’t paid. I had to leave.

Now you play in Radivo Korats. What would you say about the new club?
Recently the Serbian Basketball Super League ended and we came in 3rd
place. I was in the main team and participated in a few matches.
Bronze medals were not bad results for us, though the team has bigger
potential. Now we’re fighting for the Serbian cup.

It recently became known that Hatis’ previous opponents – Russia’s
Nadezhda and Greece’s Athinaikos – will compete in the 2009-2010
European Cup.
I follow the EuroCup [Women] closely and I must say that those teams
reached the final without any difficulty. What can I say? We weren’t
as lucky in the draw. But on the other hand, it’s good that our
opponents went that far. That shows that Hatis is a good team and can
fight for more serious results in other draws. As for what concerns
the final match, I think the Greeks will win.

You said in January that you will return to Hatis in the summer.
Yes, I will. Let’s wait a few more months.

Do you keep in contact with Armenia?
Yes, I keep contact with friends and acquaintances through the
internet. It’s very nice that Armenia remembers me.
