Follow-up: 28 March 2011
The club Union Olimpija honoured the BAT award by paying the adjudicated amounts to the claimants.

Summary of the case:
The Slovenian player Sani Becirovic, the Bosnian player Jasmin Hukic and the player agency Beobasket Ltd. filed a claim against the Slovenian club KK Union Olimpija Ljubljana for outstanding salaries and agent fees. The Claimants requested full payment of the amounts stipulated in termination agreements entered into by the players and the club. In its answer, the club submitted that the BAT lacks jurisdiction and that the club was not obliged to make any payments as the termination agreement was not accepted by the statutory representatives of the club. The Arbitrator decided to uphold the claim in its entirety.
