The idea of establishing a camp on Zlatibor was born in the summer of 1972 when Yugoslav champions Crvena Zvezda spent their pre-season on the mountain. The idea of the camp came directly from its coach Bratislav Bata \u0110or\u0111evi\u0107 (author of the first professional program of the camp) and basketball enthusiast Mihailo Miki Pavi\u0107evi\u0107.<\/p>\n
\u0110or\u0111evi\u0107 recounts the inspiration for the park by saying: “I was walking with Miki when I had the idea: Let’s bring the youngsters here to train throughout the summer.”<\/p>\n
The camp’s original slogan was, “Basketball for respectable children<\/strong>“, with the three core concepts of the camp’s philosophy being encapsulated in just three words.<\/p>\n[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.19.4″ _module_preset=”default” custom_margin=”||||false|false” custom_padding=”0px||7px||false|false” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.16″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.24.0″ _module_preset=”default” text_font=”||||||||” text_text_color=”#000a30″ text_font_size=”16px” hover_enabled=”0″ global_colors_info=”{}” sticky_enabled=”0″]<\/p>\n
In 1976, a breakthrough year for basketball, Basketball Camp “Zlatibor Basket<\/strong>” opened its doors. That year marked the first Olympic appearance by female basketball players (Montreal, Canada). During that time, the Yugoslav school of basketball rose to prominence and became, next to NBA, the world’s most successful basketball ideology. Our camp, which was built on the backs of many of its first students, has become universally recognized in the world of basketball.<\/p>\nThat summer, during our first shift at Zlatibor, Yugoslavia won a silver medal in Montreal. Over the next two years, with Professor Nikoli\u0107 on the bench, Yugoslavia won two more gold medals: at the European Championship in Li\u00e8ge (1977) and the World Championship in Manila (1978). There is a curious parallel between the heyday of basketball and our camp, since it was around this time that Professor Nikola Nikoli\u0107, fresh off winning the world championship in Manila, took the unexpected decision to become a coach in Borac from \u010ca\u010dak (1978-80). It only goes to show that despite popular belief, basketball’s rise to prominence was driven by passion and emotion, not by money and influence.<\/p>\n
It’s unlikely that any other basketball camp can match AKK “Professor Aleksandar Nikoli” in terms of the quality of its coaching staff. Aleksandar Nikoli\u0107 and Ranko \u017deravica, the two men credited with founding the Yugoslav school of basketball, are among the more than 20 names involved.<\/p>\n
The long list of coaches also includes Bo\u017eidar Maljkovi\u0107, Svetislav Pe\u0161i\u0107, \u017deljko Obradovi\u0107, Ratko Joksi\u0107, Professor Milivoje Karaleji\u0107, Professor Vladimir Koprivica, Dim\u010de Kofileski, Slobodan Piva Ivkovi\u0107, Milan Ciga Vasojevi\u0107, Slobodan Jankovi\u0107, Bora D\u017eakovi\u0107, Borislav Ceni\u0107, Aca Janji\u0107, \u017darko Lukaji\u0107, Miodrag Sija Nikoli\u0107, Vlada Parano\u0161i\u0107, Borislav Reba \u0106orkovi\u0107, Velimir Gasi\u0107, Kosta Jankov, Jovica Antoni\u0107, Aco Petrovi\u0107, Zoran Sretenovi\u0107, Milan Mini\u0107, Miroslav Nikoli\u0107, Dejan Srzi\u0107, Milutin Luta Pavlovi\u0107, Predrag Preva Vu\u010di\u0107evi\u0107, Marijan Novovi\u0107, Petar Rodi\u0107, Marina Maljkovi\u0107, Dragan Savi\u0107, Igor Petrovi\u0107, Nemanja Neca \u0110uri\u0107, Goran Miljkovi\u0107 Finac, Vlada Androji\u0107, Dragan Simeunovi\u0107, Milan Tubi\u0107, Zoran Trivan, Mirna Miti\u0107, Filip Miladinovi\u0107, Goran Miljevi\u0107, \u0110or\u0111e Tomi\u0107, Zoran Kova\u010di\u0107 \u010civija, Dragi Tvigi Ivkovi\u0107, Branko Kova\u010devi\u0107 , Vuk Stanimirovi\u0107 and others.<\/p>\n
Dozens of national team members trained at our camp, including Predrag Danilovi\u0107, Aleksandar \u0110or\u0111evi\u0107, Dejan Bodiroga, Haris Brki\u0107, Miroslav Beri\u0107, Zoran Stevanovi\u0107, Sa\u0161a Obradovi\u0107, Nikola Lon\u010dar, Miroslav Rado\u0161evi\u0107 and others.<\/p>\n

\n- Boston won the NBA title with a 4:2 victory against Phoenix. Tom Heinson, now the Boston Celtics’s head coach, competed for the NBA All-Stars in 1964 in Tam\u0161ajdan against Nemanja \u0110uri\u0107, who would later become our camp’s head coach.<\/li>\n
- Don Nelson (Boston) and Pat Riley (Phoenix), future top coaches, ended their playing careers in the NBA finals.<\/li>\n
- Kareem Abdul Jabbar was the league MVP, Bob McAdoo was the best scorer, and Joe Joe White was the MVP of the finals. White played for the USA team in the final of the 1968 Olympic Games in Mexico, where they crossed swords with Yugoslavia and Ranko \u017deravica, who made a significant impact on the camp.<\/li>\n
- Pete Maravi\u0107, an American basketball player of Serbian descent and one of the game’s most innovative players, was also a top-five NBA performer.<\/li>\n
- Mobildjirgi won the 81-74 title game in the European Champions Cup (now known as the Euroleague). It was the fifth championship for the Varese squad, who had previously won the first three under Professor Nikoli\u0107 (1970, 1972, 1973).<\/li>\n
- Borislav Reba \u0106orkovi\u0107, who later coached at our camp, was a member of Partizan’s bench when the team won its first Yugoslav championship.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

There is a curious parallel between the heyday of basketball and our camp, since it was around this time that Professor Nikola Nikoli\u0107, fresh off winning the world championship in Manila, took the unexpected decision to become a coach in Borac from \u010ca\u010dak (1978-80). It only goes to show that despite popular belief, basketball’s rise to prominence was driven by passion and emotion, not by money and influence.<\/p>\n It’s unlikely that any other basketball camp can match AKK “Professor Aleksandar Nikoli” in terms of the quality of its coaching staff. Aleksandar Nikoli\u0107 and Ranko \u017deravica, the two men credited with founding the Yugoslav school of basketball, are among the more than 20 names involved.<\/p>\n The long list of coaches also includes Bo\u017eidar Maljkovi\u0107, Svetislav Pe\u0161i\u0107, \u017deljko Obradovi\u0107, Ratko Joksi\u0107, Professor Milivoje Karaleji\u0107, Professor Vladimir Koprivica, Dim\u010de Kofileski,
