INTRODUCTION In the year 2013 the Basketball Federation of Slovenia and FIBA Europe will organize and realize its camp for the 7th time successively without any interruption. The camp has a solid tradition in Europe and it is unique. The 1 st Basketball Federation of Slovenia’s Basketball Camp was organized back in 1977. We are proud of this tradition and we would hope for FIBA Europe’s camp for U 15 girls to become an international centre for coaches of younger categories, women referees and especially for the young basketball players. The training programme and the coaches and referees training programme have been prepared by the best FIBA Europe and Slovenian experts. The basketball camp has been included in the system of educating and training of coaches and referees in Europe. In the recent years the camp has been attended by the players from all over the Europe. There are several different learning models and strategies which we will go over on this camp. Variety is making as better. This is a basketball camp that will turn the girls into better basketball players. Our main focus is on making them smarter players. We will teach them all about fundamentals, teamwork and sportsmanship during each of our five day sessions. We will show the girls how to take the fundamentals of the game and become winners, not only on the court but throughout their entire lives. We want our athletes to become real students of the game, true coach’s players. We emphasize the importance of leadership skills, teamwork and good sportsmanship. The main goal is to help the young players to develop to their highest level. The Programme will be geared for 15 years old and younger with great potential. This camp uses a unique combination of exposure, competition and instruction. At Postojna basketball camp we also do a very good job of teaching players how to correctly run the drills we teach at our camp. Doing that, they will do a better job by practicing on their own at home. This is necessary if a player wants to develop into a great scorer and an over-all player. Our goal is to make every girl not only a better prepared, skilled player, but also a better individual. We reinforce accountability, perseverance, dedication, attitude and self-discipline, both on and off the court. They will not only reach their personal goals; they’ll exceed them. The FIBA Europe International Camp for U15 Girls in Postojna has been established to make sure that the players understand the game of basketball, and are able to take what they learn from us and apply it to their everyday lives. 2.
