REGISTERSimilarly to Elite Basketball Camp, one group will work with 3 coaches — two basketball coaches and one physical preparation coach. Safety and health are ensured by on-site physiotherapists and a medic, emphasizing proper physical preparation and injury prevention.
Players will be grouped by ability, not just age, to guarantee personalized coaching. This approach focuses on the exact technical details needed to elevate your game to the next level.
Each night, our campers attend expert-led sessions where coaches and guests share insights on all-around athletic growth through engaging storytelling. More than just a learning experience, these sessions consistently rank as a fan-favorite among our participants.
Train with specialists who work daily with Latvia's national teams and leading clubs. The professional training process takes place in spacious, modern sports facilities, while full rest is guaranteed by staying in a quality hotel adapted for athletes.

We all know - during the season, coaches rarely have time to focus on each player's technical nuances, as the main focus is on team results. Elite Skills Camp was created precisely to address this gap. We will use the beginning of summer to correct mistakes and build new technical habits - this will be a solid foundation for your further summer work and the next season.
Our mission is to provide every motivated young person with access to the methodology and individual attention that usually only national team members receive. We understand that daily training processes differ - there are places where more attention is paid to technical details, and there are places where the focus is different. We are here as an additional resource for those who want to fill gaps in their technical preparation or learn the nuances that national team level coaches look for.
We want Elite Skills Camp to become a trusted support for sports schools in their summer work. We know well that not all coaches have the opportunity to organize their own camps, but summer is the most productive time when a player can work on their individual mastery. Our vision is to develop this camp into a multi-week cycle throughout the summer, providing an opportunity for purposeful young people to improve even when their clubs are on break.
Our camp combines professional training methodology with a friendly atmosphere, providing every participant with the opportunity to not only improve their basketball skills, but also gain valuable life experience, develop character, and learn important values that will help both in sports and in life.

What do Elite Basketball Camp coaches say about this camp?
"I see why so many young people come here three, four years in a row. My daughters have been here too. The highest level is ensured in all aspects."
Sandis Amoliņš
Bērtānu VBS
"Every summer I try to free up time to come here. I see that a large part of the children see the information we share here for the first time. Here you can see and feel how national teams work."
Mārtiņš Gulbis
VEF Rīga
"Change of environment and availability of various sparring partners is a very good reason to come to this camp every year."
Kristaps Zeids
Baltic Rollers
"If Norway has oil and Alaska has gold, then our gold or our oil is coaches. Mainly, the very strong coaching staff is the reason why we can provide a very purposeful and planned process throughout the camp."
Artūrs Visockis Rubenis
BK Liepāja
"I really like how young people are prepared for the fact that important actions in basketball are not only on the court, but also off it. I think young people take quite a lot from the evening lectures, which are interesting to me too."
Gints Fogels
BK Ventspils
"It's easy to feel like the best in your city or school, but coming here to Elite Camp, a player is forced to step out of their comfort zone. Different playing styles and coaching approaches force young people to look for new solutions in their game, because old habits don't always work. Seeing how hard others train, children here get such a motivation boost that lasts the whole season."
Edijs Šlesers
Ekselences centrs
"The big emphasis on physical preparation also transfers to the daily process. Young people who have been to the camp understand the importance of physical preparation much more and start approaching this section much more seriously in their training processes. It's invaluable that there's a physiotherapist on site who can quickly get young people back to training in case of minor injuries."

From Tukums to nationwide scale
Elite Basketball Camp story began in 2022 not as a business idea, but as a solution to a real need. The camp's founder Mārtiņš Tīss faced a harsh reality: a sharp polarization begins among youth in grades 7 and 8. As soon as one part starts losing interest in sports, the most motivated ones start lacking equal partners to grow and compete with. In small organizations, insufficient number of children often means that in summer - the most productive time for progress - the necessary training volume is not provided. That's why this product was created: a professional alternative and supplement to the work of sports schools and clubs.
Currently, the camp has become a nationwide event. We have players coming not only from small sports schools, but also from all major Latvian basketball centers and from 20+ different countries. In 2025, the camp was attended by more than 180 participants, making it one of the largest in the region.
Our environment is designed so that we don't select the "chosen ones", but strategically divide participants according to their skills and comprehension level. Group division allows leading groups to move forward much faster and teach things that are difficult to touch in daily mixed groups. As players are grouped according to their skill level, each participant receives the most effective training load and in-depth knowledge appropriate to their abilities.
