Wikipedia - BC Tallinna Kalev
Tallinna Kalev/SNABB is a basketball team based in Tallinn, Estonia. The team plays in the Estonian-Latvian Basketball League and the Korvpalli Meistriliiga (KML). Their home arena is the Audentes Sports Center.
History
The team was founded in 2002 as Pirita Palliklubi (Pirita Ball Club), the same year they joined the Korvpalli Meistriliiga (KML), the top tier of Estonian basketball. In their first season, they reached the Estonian Cup final, but lost 76–92 to TÜ/Rock.
Prior to the 2008–09 season, BC Pirita joined the Tallinn Sports Association Kalev and changed their name to Tallinna Kalev. In July 2010, Tallinna Kalev merged operations with TTÜ Korvpalliklubi. They played as TTÜ/Kalev and TTÜ/Kalev II through the 2010–11 season. However, the partnership ended after just one season, and Tallinna Kalev continued independently.
In 2014, the team became affiliated with Tallinn University (TLÜ). They made their debut in a European competition by competing in the 2016–17 season of the FIBA Europe Cup, but failed to advance past the group stage. Coached by former NBA player Martin Müürsepp, Tallinna Kalev/TLÜ made the KML Finals for the first time in team history in 2019. However, they were swept in three games by defending champion BC Kalev/Cramo.
In June 2022, Tallinna Kalev merged operations with Audentes Sports Club and became Tallinna Kalev/Audentes.
The team's roster is made up of talented players from Estonia and around the world, who bring a diverse range of skills and experience to the court. TLU Kalev has a dedicated fan base that fills the arena for home games, creating an electric atmosphere that fuels the team's performance.
TLU Kalev is committed to developing young talent and has a strong youth program that nurtures the next generation of basketball stars. The team also places a strong emphasis on community engagement, hosting basketball clinics and events to promote the sport and inspire young athletes.
Overall, TLU Kalev is a respected and competitive force in Estonian basketball, with a bright future ahead as they continue to strive for success on the court.
