LAŠKO, JUNE 28 – JULY 4, 2026
BASKETBALL CAMP 2026
It’s not just about basketball – it’s about a week of unforgettable experiences.
Every year, Goran Dragić together with a team of top coaches and counselors prepares a week full of sports challenges, basketball training sessions, fun, and meeting new friends.
The Goran Dragić Basketball Camp is not just basketball training. It is a basketball experience camp where Goran Dragić spends seven days with the children/participants, sharing his experience and passion for sports through games, training sessions, and social activities.

SAFETY AND WELL-BEING
The Goran Dragić Basketball Camp is not focused only on basketball. Just as important as the sports program are the safety and quality of the children’s stay.
This is ensured by a team of ten counselors led by Nenad Stojić.
The counselors are professionally trained and have extensive experience working at camps, holiday programs, and events organized by the Anita Ogulin Association and ZPM, which is also one of the partners of the camp.
The counselors stay with the children throughout the entire camp, and together with the coaches they are accommodated in the same section of the hotel, ensuring constant presence, supervision, and support.

A physiotherapist is present in Laško throughout the entire duration of the camp to take care of injury prevention and to respond quickly in case of injuries, ensuring the overall well-being of the participants.
For the fourth consecutive year, the camp is cooperating with experts in the field of 3×3 basketball. Participants will be introduced to the basics of this new Olympic discipline, and together with the camp team we will also organize an internal 3×3 tournament.
Although basketball is the central connecting element of the camp, participants are never selected based on their previous basketball experience.
The camp is intended for children of different ages and skill levels, with the goal of creating an environment where every child feels accepted, safe, and encouraged to develop.
We want the seven days spent in Laško to remain a wonderful memory for all participants and their parents.
