A band of seven musicians put together by Arkas Sport for the 2013-14 season celebrates its sixth year of motivating the spectators and giving the team morale. A brainchild of the Board of Directors of Arkas Sport and founded with the initiatives by Yavuz Daridere, the Arkas Band does an excellent job of firing up the crowd of spectators filling the stands and injects enthusiasm and passion into the team. The Arkas Band stands out from others through a lively combination of electric bass and drums, as well as trumpet, saxophone and trombone creating an excellent fusion of melodies in volleyball courts that match the players’ movements. Summarizing the band’s goal as leading and motivating the spectators to support the team, Yavuz Darıdere said, “We were inspired by the sports bands playing in Europe but in terms of the music produced, we are at a much better place than them.”
