Wikipedia - Legia Warsaw (basketball)
Legia Warszawa Sekcja Koszykówki (in English: Legia Warsaw Basketball Section) is a Polish men's basketball club, based in Warsaw. The team currently plays in the PLK, the Polish first division. The club was established in 1929 as the basketball section of the military multi-sport club of Legia Warsaw. Legia became the leading team in Polish basketball in the 1950s and 1960s with seven national championships and two national cups.
History
The basketball section of Legia Warsaw was founded in 1929. The first game of the team was on December 8, 1929, when the team won 31–5 over Jutrznia.
The team was re-activated in 1947, after absence during World War II, by students from the Stefana Batorego. The team won the national high school championship, and after several more promotions, it returned to the highest-level league in 1951.
Legia played its first international match on September 6, 1953, facing UDA Praha. In 1956, the first national championship in club history was won after finishing first with a 14–4 record.
On May 15, 2014, the team was brought under a new legal form when the joint-stock company "Legia Warszawa Sekcja Koszykówki" was founded; the main shareholders of the club are Legia Warszawa SA and Robert Chabelski. In 2017, Legia was promoted to the PLK after being absent for 14 years.
The team has a rich history of success, having won the Polish Basketball League championship 17 times, most recently in 2013. Legia Warsaw has also won the Polish Cup 10 times, and has had success in European competitions, reaching the quarterfinals of the EuroCup in 2008.
Legia Warsaw is known for its strong defense and physical play, as well as its ability to score points in transition. The team has a loyal fan base and plays its home games at the Hala Torwar, which has a capacity of 4,500 spectators.
The current roster of Legia Warsaw features a mix of experienced veterans and young talent, including American guard Chris Wright and Polish forward Tomasz Gielo. The team is coached by Łukasz Bielański, who has been with the club since 2019.
Overall, Legia Warsaw is a respected and competitive basketball team in Poland, with a proud history and a bright future ahead.
