The european influence

Having spent time in 12 different European basketball cultures, ADAPT leaders understand why European basketball is beginning to take over the game at the highest level.

DEVELOPMENT > WINNING

The club systems focus on development over winning at a young age, where in North America it's very common to see players' basketball development stunted at a young age because of the desire to win, be ranked, and be seen at a young age. Across the pond, we noticed how diligently coaches were developing their athletes. Players remain with a club for a longer period of time to gel with teammates, train more than play, and spend lots of time learning how to play the team game which is more suited for the next level.

ZORAN SAVIC - TORONTO LEAD

"Growing up in Oakville and playing at the university level here in Ontario I thought I knew it all. It wasn't until we started doing camps across Europe when I realized we in the GTA have A LOT to learn from how the Europeans do club basketball. I wish I had their system growing up, so that's why I'm bringing it here for the next generation to have."
