For those ones who do not know us yet, we are group of passionate Coaches that loves the game of basketball. Camp was created for basketball players (both boys and girls) that wants to train hard and elevate their skills and knowledge of basketball with NBA Cares and JR.NBA Coaches from USA. We created this camp to allow players explore high level of American style of training.

We respect clubs and coaches work and we won’t do nothing without clubs permission.
As a Pro Futuro Sports closest associates (www.pfsinfo.org) we have over 20 years of experience helping clubs, players and coaches to create opportunities.
Best example of that can be long time lasting relationships with clubs like Partizan Belgrade or Cervena Zvezda which asks us often to help and relocate their players to USA or elsewhere.
We are not only helping the most talented players. We know how important is education and work ethics for young people. Our focus for players is to combine high education with high level basketball and allow student-athletes grow in many aspects of life.
We can try help every level of player-student find their dream school or club if needed.

The Night League is a form of serious competition with 100% commitment in defense and offense. Players who don’t try hard on defense will be forced to play less games than players who work hard on defense. Teams will consist of 7-8 players max. Matches will be played at reduced playing time due to the short rotation. The night league is preceded by a draft. Draft allows players to choose teams, choosing a captain. It’s up to the captain, along with the rest of the team, to set a tone for their team or adjust the style of play. Captains will be selected during the first two days of training. The most outstanding players will be selected captains. Usually the oldest or most experienced players are selected to be a team captains.

BASKETBALL COMPLEX
Professional basketball complex for basketball with 1 indoor full courts, 1 indoor 3/4 lenght court and 1 outside full size court.
HONVED SPORTS COMPLEX is a modern Sports Complex with good space, great quality wooden floor. It has all we need to successfully organize a BUDAPEST CAMP
It is surrounded with urban but calm area where players can relax after practices and games.
It also is about 30 min walking distance from the Budapest parliament and 10 min walking distance from the IBIS HOTEL which is right next to BUDAPEST CITY PARK and HEROES SQUARE.
There is no better place to organize BUDAPEST Camp that HONVED SPORTS COMPLEX in heart of Europe, Budapest, Hungary.
Great location of gym and hotel in downtown of Budapest allows are participants not only train hard but also explore Budapest.
Meals will be organized in all 2 different places.
Breakfasts will be provided at the hotel as a hotel breakfast.
Lunches will be held at the gym.
Dinners will be held either at Trofea All You can eat restaurant or at Hai Nam Pho Bistro Restaurant. Both are 10-15 min distance walking from the dorms/gym.
Location of HOTEL IBIS is a huge advantage. It is located 800 meters (10 minutes away) from HONVED SPORTS HALL, which we will use during the BUDAPEST CAMP. This means that participants of the camp will live right on the campus close to gym in 2-3 person rooms with, tv, showers and restrooms.
