INDIVIDUAL PROGRAM

Every month, the girls undergo a physiological assessment, gauging muscle tone, progress, and areas of weakness in their bodies. Based on these assessments, our coaches tailor individualized sports programs to ensure the girls’ safe physical development. Each player follows a customized program designed to mitigate potential injuries and unlock their unique talents and potential.

PROFESSIONAL PATHWAYS

Our goal is to provide program graduates with pathways to join elite basketball clubs worldwide, including the Lithuanian national and Olympic basketball teams. Additionally, participants will acquire knowledge and opportunities to pursue careers in various aspects of the basketball industry.

EMOTIONAL GROWTH

Our program places a strong emphasis on the emotional development of the girls. A dedicated specialist oversees the psychological well-being of the players. The team leader resides with the players and closely observes their off-court behavior. Weekly motivational interviews provide a platform for discussions on their overall well-being, aspirations, and personal hurdles.

EDUCATIONAL FOCUS

We prioritize the academic education of our girls, striving for a harmonious balance between their school and training commitments in collaboration with Druskininkai Atgimimo secondary school. All participants are enrolled in a dedicated sports class, where their schedules, assignments, and homework are synchronized with team leaders. Academic progress is jointly supervised by teachers and coaches. Monthly meetings with each girl and their parents review school performance. Scholarships are available to those demonstrating excellence in both academics and training. Furthermore, we ensure that our basketball players have leisure opportunities by organizing monthly cultural excursions or outings during their free time.

Why BC “DEIVĖS”

The choice of “DEIVĖS” is rooted in the rich tapestry of Lithuanian mythology. Goddesses hold an integral place in this lore, embodying values such as strength, self-assurance, and the enduring power of women. We envision our team’s players evolving into true “Goddesses” of the basketball court, embracing these qualities.

Furthermore, goddesses in Lithuanian mythology share a profound connection with the natural world. Austėja, a prominent goddess, governs over bees, vegetation, and the blossoms that bees transform into honey. Bees themselves were revered as sacred laborers of the gods, symbolizing industriousness, unity, and the spirit of 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.
