The Special Presence of Black Velvet and Dude K by Hoodgroove Management 

Hoodgroove Management proudly presented two of its most dynamic artists: the Black Velvet dance group, led by our acclaimed choreographer, Konstantinos Pagiatis, and the unique freestyle basketball artist, Dude K. 

Black Velvet gave a unique hip-hop show that combined urban culture with the dynamics of the sport, offering a spectacle full of energy and passion. Every movement of the dancers, combined with the rhythmic precision and impressive choreography of Konstantinos Pagiatis, captivated the audience, highlighting the connection between hip-hop and sport and street culture. Constantine Pagiatis, known for his innovative approach, gave Black Velvet the freedom to "translate" the pulse of the tournament into rhythm and movement, creating a performance that enhanced the celebration of basketball. 

On the other hand, Dude K, the renowned freestyle basketball artist of Hoodgroove Management, made an impression with his amazing virtuosity. With his signature style and mastery, Dude K impressed the audience with trick shots, skill drills and unique combos that showcased the art of freestyle basketball. Hundreds of basketball fans, young and old, had the opportunity to interact with him, try tricks and get a taste of his professionalism and ingenuity. In fact, Dude K spent time with children's teams and freestyle enthusiasts, making them feel like each one was a special player on the park's court. 

A Unique Weekend of Basketball and Entertainment 

The young basketball fans, with the guidance of the iconic Nikos Zisis and Sophocles Schortsanitis, watched and experienced basketball from a different perspective, full of spectacle and entertainment. Participants were also entertained with basketball challenges, arcade games, the inflatable court and the impressive 360 Photo Booth, creating a celebration for all.
