TheChaparral. Although Chaparral was designed by American type designer Carol Twombly and published by US-based Adobe, this choice feels very European to me, at least in the basketball context. A humanist slab in mixed case is not the most typical style for a sports event, is it?

Chaparral (1997) is named after the Californian shrubland with its small evergreen oaks. There is another contemporary slab serif with similarly casual details that carries a 'woody' name, too: FF Tisa (2008) by Mitja Miklavčič – Tisa is the Slovenian word for yew tree. Someone forgot to tell the EuroBasket designers that they could have used a fresh local typeface, instead of one that comes bundled with Adobe CS.
