WHY OUR METHOD WORKS.

Great coaching can be hard to find. We experienced that in our own playing careers at various levels, and it becomes increasingly difficult as you filter down through the growing layers of youth basketball. In building our Method, we focused on creating a system that blended old with new, blended global with local, and was entirely holistic. Scroll down to read about 5 components of the Mitrovic Method that have led to its rapidly growing reputation for delivering quality:

EUROPEAN ROOTS + INFLUENCE

INTERNALLY DEVELOPED PROFESSIONAL COACHES

DETAIL-ORIENTED BASKETBALL IQ + SKILL DEVELOPMENT

EMPHASIS ON HOLISTIC ATHLETE GROWTH

APPROACH TO CONNECTION + COMMUNITY

EUROPEAN ROOTS +INFLUENCE

It is no secret that all humans, no matter what age or background, perform better when they like what they are doing. By creating an environment of comfort between Coach and Athlete, we connect with those we coach and help them connect with their teammates around them. In doing so, we believe that we can break down any barriers that stand in the way of developing trust. We preach teamwork, kindness, diversity, inclusivity, communication, and leadership, as a few highlights of the many necessary components of building a community that our athletes can feel a part of. Most of us like to win when in competition with others, but the goal is to lift each other up in the process, even as opponents. From day one, we have made it a point of emphasis to facilitate situations in which every athlete, regardless of skill level, feels like they are a part of the whole and enjoys the process regardless of the end results.

PREMIER SKILL DEVELOPMENT.

As stated above, basketball is a game of details. One finger slightly out of place can alter the trajectory of a shot, and a foot placed at the wrong angle can prevent a player from getting by their defender. The Mitrovic Method has taken 40+ years of professional and collegiate playing experience, across two different generations, and translated it into simplified ideas and skills that allow players to start reaching their playing potential. Sometimes what you see on TV is not necessarily what helps you improve your own skills, so we have made it our mission to always base our teachings on the fundamentals. For some players, improvement comes slow, while for others it comes quick. But with our guidance, an athlete who is willing to learn and absorb will find that their efforts will not be wasted as everyone has the capacity to get better! The philosophies and training methods that we use are what creates space for that to happen, and breeds confidence in those we train.

HOLISTIC CHARACTER BUILDING.

No matter how good your skills get, there is still the matter of how well you can apply them into real game situations. Training the mind plays a huge role in whether an athlete succeeds in doing so, and can often be the most important component to an athlete’s overall development. By teaching important life skills like hard work, discipline, resilience and perseverance, The Mitrovic Method places just as much focus and importance on the mental part of the game as it does on the rest. We go out of our way to talk to athletes about situations that they find themselves in on a weekly basis, what their struggles are in those situations, and suggest possible solutions to those problems. How to fail. How to bounce back from failure. How to work well with others around you towards a common goal. Those are just a few examples of things that help prepare young minds for some of what awaits them in the real world. So no matter what trajectory an athlete’s career takes, with Momentum they will have built valuable character traits in the process.
