WHO WE ARE

AMATEUR BASKETBALL CLUB “PROFESSOR ALEKSANDAR NIKOLIC” is a sport organization, known to many people under the name : SPORT SOCIETY “JUNIOR”, under which it existed till the death of the late professor.

Since then, this association has got exclusive right to carry his name, which means great honour and obligation. This organization was founded by a group of eminent experts, who invested their knowledge, respect and experience in it.

The main aim of AKK “PROFESSOR ALEKSANDAR NIKOLIC” is advancement of children’s and youth’s basketball, which is provided by the main activity of club, in the framework of INTERNATIONAL BASKETBALL CAMP , traditionaly held every year on Zlatibor.

With its thirty -year existence, this basketball camp on Zlatibor represents an international basketball movement of youth, the only one which works by the program of the founder of Yugoslave, European and world game under the hoop,the late Aleksandar Nikolic.

In the summer of 2006. Amateur basketball camp PROFESSOR ALEKSANDAR NIKOLIC on Zlatibor will welcome the children of the world for the 31st time.

For the last 30 years more than 30.ooo children and coaches have left their trail on Zlatibor basketball grounds,so there is no wonder we have been compared with wine: they say :the older the better you are.

It’s quite understandable becaose from the beginning, and it all began in 1976, our club’s history was written by Bratislav Djordjevic, Bozidar Maljkovic, Borivoje Cenic, Svetislav Pesic, Zeljko Obradovic and many others.

Finally, professor Aleksandar Nikolic ended his couch opus here, and we have been carrying his name ever after.

Sasa Djordjevic, Predrag Danilovic, Dejen Bodiroga, Sasa Obradovic, Zeljko Rebraca, Nikola Loncar, Miroslav Radosevic, Igor Rakocevic have left an indelible trail, and in the near future we will add some new names to this list, becouse our camp is a workshop which never stops.

When, thirty years ago, basketball entuziasts from Belgrade, Uzice and Cacak got an idea about opening a basketball camp on Zlatibor, onlya few people belived that we would have been lasting so long.

Now, after the three decades of surviving under most difficult conditions, the whole world is greatfull to the vizionars of those days, to people who came to an original idea, which has later been realized to become reality through the work of many people.

Zlatibor camp has „delivered” plenty of other basketball camps, and therefor maybe we’ve become the most „ basketball” basketball country in the world. Changing radicaly trditional practis of selection, Zlatibor camp gives opportunity to everyone to go in for sports. Nobody is eliminated, and therefor we have grown into a basketball movement.

Basketball camp on Zlatibor represents a school of association, a joint living of youth. It’s a completely new experience because it is filled with learning, game, competition, entertainment,and recreation. You learn basketball on Zlatibor in some other way, not as in some other basketball schools and clubs.

On Zlatibor you play to learn, and in the clubs you learn to play to play.
