BC ”DEIVĖS”

New Generation Masters in Basketball academy AIBA

Girls Basketball Academy, together with the Lithuanian Basketball Federation, founded BC “DEIVĖS” and prepared a unique basketball program for young Lithuanian basketball players. The girls train with the best basketball and fitness coaches in Lithuania in the highest-class sports complex in Druskininkai.

PRESTIGE BASKETBALL PROGRAM

The basketball program is the only sports program in Lithuania created for the multifaceted development of players. The basketball program, in which girls participate until they turn 18, aims to harmoniously reveal the highest potential of each player and ensure career opportunities in the basketball industry. Special attention goes to physical and personal education. Based on NBA standards, each player trains according to an individual sports program. Using the most modern physical training and research technologies across Europe, the coaches will guarantee safe and stable progress for the girls.

INDIVIDUAL PROGRAM

Each month, the girls will complete a physiological test that measures muscle tone, progression, and weak areas of the body. Following the physiological condition of the athletes, the coaches prepare individual sports programs that ensure the safe physical preparation of the basketball players. Each player trains according to a program created for her, which prevents possible injuries and reveals their talents and potential.

CAREER OPPORTUNITIES

Our aim is for players who have completed the program to have the opportunity to enter the strongest basketball clubs around the world, including the Lithuanian national basketball team and the Lithuanian Olympic basketball team. Girls will also gain knowledge and opportunities to pursue a career in other spheres of the basketball industry.

PERSONAL EDUCATION

The program pays special attention to the emotional development of girls.
A specialist follows the psychological preparation of the players. The team leader lives with players and observes their behavior outside the court. Once a week, players have a motivational interview, during which they discuss their well-being, expectations, and personal challenges.

ACADEMIC EDUCATION

We pay special attention to the academic education of girls. In cooperation with Druskininkai Atgimimo secondary school, we seek to find a healthy balance between school and training schedules. All girls study in a sports class, where their agenda, school assignments, and homework are coordinated directly with the team leaders. The academic progress is taken care of by teachers and coaches. Once a month, school results are discussed with each girl and their parents. Girls who show good academic and training results can receive a scholarship. We also pay attention to the free time of the basketball players – once a month team organizes a cultural excursion or a leisure trip.

Why BC “DEIVĖS”

Goddesses are an inseparable part of Lithuanian mythology. She is an inspiration to people, symbolizing strength, self-confidence, and the power of a woman. We believe that the team’s players will also become real “Goddesses” of basketball.

Goddesses have always been closely connected with nature. In Lithuanian mythology, the goddess Austėja rules bees, vegetation, and flowers from which bees collect honey. Bees were considered extraordinary, sacred workers of the gods. They symbolize diligence, community, and teamwork

MISSION

To develop and bring up world-class female basketball players. To become a successful role model for future Lithuanian basketball players.

VISION

We create and nurture a unique women’s basketball culture. We are growing top-level basketball players who will be an example for Lithuanian and foreign teams and will make the country’s name famous all over the world.
