Winter
Camp

Seven days of individual work during the winter break. Boys & girls 8–16, max six players per coach, 75-minute sessions.

The winter break is the only window in the season for individual work.

From September to May, club practice prepares the team for Sunday — there is no time for one player. The winter break is the only week without a game: seven days of individual work, and the player returns to the club with something new.

Choose the volume

The content is the same for everyone. What differs is how much of it a player gets through.

  3. Entry assessment on the first day
  4. Conditioning tests with Dejan Vujisić
  5. Coach-to-player ratio 1 : 6, at every session
  6. End-of-camp awards

The camp is led by the year-round Skills Academy staff — Vlado Šćepanović, Savo Đikanović, Dragan Pejić, Dino Ramusović, Krsto Tomašević and Stevan Bojanić. Dejan Vujisić runs the conditioning block and testing. Meet the coaching staff →

The full program

Two blocks. Two different jobs.

Every session lasts 75 minutes. Groups are formed by birth year, work inside the group by player level.

AMMorning block — the base

Mechanics in controlled conditions, while the player is fresh.

  1. Form shooting and shot biomechanics
  2. Footwork for shots off the dribble and off the catch
  3. Pick-up technique and tempo control
  4. Finishing through contact and body control in the air
  5. Athletic development and explosiveness
  6. Testing led by conditioning coach Dejan Vujisić

PMAfternoon block — application

What the morning builds, the afternoon performs under pressure at game rhythm.

  1. Advanced ball handling with changes of pace and direction
  2. Separation footwork and first-step attack
  3. Passing under pressure — angle, timing, reading the defence
  4. Shooting at game tempo, off the dribble and off the pass
  5. Movement without the ball — spacing, timing, positioning
  6. Decision making in 1v1, 2v2 and 3v3

The difference is not the number of drills. The difference is someone standing next to the player, correcting the mistake the moment it happens — not after practice, when it has already been repeated fifty times.

Birth year determines the group

Foundation · 8–11

Motor skills and coordination, relationship with the ball, basic shooting and dribbling technique. We build correct habits before wrong ones take root.

Performance · 12–16

Technique under pressure, decision making, applying skills in live play. Work is matched to each player's level within the group.

Birth year decides the group — not a parent's assessment. Levels are split inside the group after the entry assessment on day one.

Safety & supervision

Who is with your child
when training stops.

Both July camps are residential, in Kolašin, for children from age 8. This is what that actually means, hour by hour.

Up to four coaches sleep in the hotel

Children are with Skills Academy staff for the whole stay — not only at training. Up to four coaches stay in the hotel with the players, so there is supervision in the evening and overnight.

A doctor and a physiotherapist on site

Both summer camps have medical and physiotherapy support present at the camp.

Insurance

Participants from Montenegro are insured through Lovćen osiguranje. Participants travelling from abroad need their own travel and health insurance covering the dates of the camp.

We ask about health before arrival

Before the camp starts, parents send us allergies, ongoing therapy, medication and anything else the staff has to know. Tell us everything — it is easier to have information we never need than to need it at 23:00.

Anything here you want to go through with a coach? Message us — this is the part parents should ask about.


Where you stay

The mountain does
part of the coaching.

Two of the three camps live in Kolašin at 960 metres — cool air, quiet focus, and everything a young athlete needs within a five-minute walk.

Kolašin, Montenegro — 960 m
  • Hotel Pini Apart, full board — coaches stay in the hotel with the players
  • 3 meals a day & Hotel Bianca pool, twice per camp
  • Two indoor gyms + outdoor courts — Lug Hall (3,000 seats) and Risto Manojlović Hall
  • A doctor and a physiotherapist are on site at both summer camps
  • Cool mountain air and premium recovery conditions — train where performance thrives

The Winter Intensive runs in Podgorica — venue details arrive with the program.

Parents ask

Before you
ask.

The questions parents ask before every camp — answered straight.

Both. The group is set by birth year, and the work inside the group by level, based on the entry assessment on day one. A beginner will not train the same things as a player with four years behind them.

Indoor shoes, a water bottle and a towel. Shirts and shorts are provided on the first day.

Depends on the camp. Summer and Shooting Camp are all-inclusive — full board at the hotel, three meals a day. The Winter Intensive is a day program in Podgorica: there is a break between the blocks, and parents organize meals.

For the Winter Intensive, cancellation until Dec 20 brings a full refund; Summer and Shooting deadlines are announced with registration. After a deadline the amount transfers to the next Skills program — and if a child falls ill during any camp, unused days transfer with a doctor's note. Nothing is lost.

Yes, from the stands. We only ask that you don't communicate with the children during training — it interrupts the coach's work and pulls the player's focus.

It is. Girls train in the same groups, split by birth year — no difference.

That's exactly why the first day starts with an entry assessment. The coach knows every player's level before the work begins.

Only if spots remain. Groups close when they fill — often before the deadline, because of the 1 : 6 ratio.

First camp — start with Summer. Working on the jumper — Shooting. Individual work during the season — Winter. And if you're unsure, WhatsApp us: we answer the same day.
