Veszprém x ATHLETE PLUS
Athlete Plus, a scholarship consulting agency, and Veszprém Basketball Club from Hungary are partnering to form new possibilities for youth basketball players.
The partnership is built on a shared commitment to create an environment that helps young athletes develop their skills both on and off the court. Athlete Plus and Veszprém BC will be organizing webinars and showcases where Hungarian youth basketball players can show off their abilities to coaches from around the world. In addition, we will be bringing together experts in both sports psychology and academic tutoring to help athletes gain confidence in their abilities both on the court and in the classroom. Finally, we will be holding summer camps where kids can learn more about what it takes to become a student-athlete while also gaining leadership skills through fun activities such as team building exercises and community service projects.
Starting in January 2023, two organizations will work on developing a Veszprém Athlete Plus Academy that will provide basketball and academic development opportunity to athletes all over the world.

Veszprém BASKETBALL CLUB
Veszprém Basketball Club was founded in 2008, and it continues and raises the work of its predecessors since 1951 to an even higher level, both in terms of the first team and the youth. As a result, the economical background and the community power of sports offer much greater opportunities than ever before.
The goal of the club is to always find the answer to the challenges of the 21st century, to be ahead of their rivals with a modern, future-oriented thinking, operating on a business basis in the world of Hungarian sports as much as possible, while promoting and raising basketball to the highest possible level in the region.
