Everything was great, from the moment I stepped into the gym I felt positive energy. The coaches are ready to work, they want to help you and explain every little detail in the best possible way. Off the court they are even better, and I am always thankful for their support.
I worked with him for 2 years and I can say that I improved a lot during that period. He helped me prepare well for the USA and managed to help me reach a higher level.
I work with coach Duca for 10 years. I Really like his dedication and passion for basketball. He always pushes my practice to the limit and with him you can see your progress very quickly.
I met Coach Dusan Petrovic 2 months ago when I took my 10-year old son from Turkey to basketball camp in Serbia. Coach Petrovic has been a blessing for us to meet at such an early stage of my son's basketball development. He knows basketball really well but more importantly, he knows how to coach it, too. He explains how the drills translate into the games and he shows details on how to do the moves better. My son has been playing basketball for 2 years and he must have dribbled between the legs 1000 times. Coach Petrovic showed 1 leg move to do right after that move which totally eliminates the defender. None of his previous coaches showed that during those 2 years! Also, Coach Petrovic has great energy which transfers to the players as well and makes the practices a lot more spirited. In addition, he instills discipline without being illiberal. That way, players get the most out of the practices but also enjoy them. Moreover, although my son was the only player who didn't speak Serbian, Coach Petrovic explained every drill to him in English as well in spite of the fact that he showed every drill to the whole team by doing it first himself. I hope we get to work with Coach Petrovic again.
Training with coach Dusan was a very good experience. The man is a real professional, very dedicated and pays great attention to details. Dusan transfers his enthusiasm and great energy to his players, so that they get the most out of every training session. Definitely for any recommendation

Coach helped me tremendously especially with my shooting ability. He focuses on details that allow you to get better. Shows you where your mistakes are and tells you what you need to do in order to fix them. He also works on game situations and on how to read the game well. Great overall experience. Definitely will be back

As a professional basketball player, I had the pleasure of collaborating with Coach Dejan Ilic, co-founder of Hoop Mentality. His expertise and unwavering commitment to my development as an athlete made a substantial impact on my skills and overall performance. I am grateful for the invaluable guidance and support I received, and I highly recommend Coach Ilic and Hoop Mentality to any aspiring basketball player seeking exceptional coaching.
I worked with coach Dule, and it was a great experience. I improved with him, and I am sure that he can help you become a better player!
I've been training with both of the coaches in the past 2 or 3 years and i have improved a lot like really a lot so i suggest you try it also
Dusan Petrovic is a great coach with high level of energy. He pays a lot of attention to smallest details which helped me to get better as a player. He possesses high knowledge of how to make player to translate his skills from practice to the game. When it comes to shooting that is where he is really good. He helped me to get confidence. When it comes to off court stuff he is really good person with high standards.
