TO.BE EUROPE โ BASKETBALL CAMP DOBBIACO 2027
What if a basketball camp could be much more than basketball?
What if one week could challenge you on the court, introduce you to people from different countries, take you into the heart of the Dolomites and leave you with something that goes far beyond the final score?
This is the idea behind TO.BE Europe Basketball Camp Dobbiaco 2027.
Set in the spectacular surroundings of Dobbiaco, in South Tyrol, the camp brings together boys and girls aged 13 to 18 for an international experience built around basketball, athletic development, friendship, personal growth and discovery.
Because at TO.BE, we believe that the camp is not only about what happens on the court. It is about what happens to the person who steps onto it.
PERSON, THEN ATHLETE.
This is our mantra.
We believe that the person comes before the athlete.
A score does not define a player. Victory is not measured only by what appears on the scoreboard. It is also about learning how to deal with defeat, facing challenges, overcoming limits and turning weaknesses into strengths.
It is about learning to listen to your body, respecting your own timeline and understanding that every athlete has a different path.
At TO.BE, we want young athletes to become better players, but also more confident, resilient and aware people.
To be. To become. A true athlete.
And that is what makes Dobbiaco different: one week where basketball becomes the starting point for something much bigger.
TWO WEEKS. ONE EXPERIENCE.
The 2027 edition offers two equivalent sessions, giving families greater flexibility:
27 June โ 3 July 2027
4 โ 10 July 2027
We expect approximately 120 young athletes to take part in the project, creating an international environment where different backgrounds, languages and cultures come together through the universal language of sport.
The ambition builds on an already strong foundation: in 2026, TO.BE welcomed 100 athletes from across Italy.

DOWNLOAD THE BROCHURE โA WEEK BUILT TO DEVELOP THE COMPLETE ATHLETE
Throughout the camp, athletes will work with a highly qualified technical and athletic staff, including FIP and international coaches, Serie A and Serie B coaches, and Serie A2 and B players/coaches.
The technical team includes 10 coaches focused on individual skills, tactics, shooting and defensive work, alongside a Strength & Conditioning Coach and two physiotherapists and masseuses dedicated to prevention and recovery.
Every day is designed to challenge athletes while giving them the right balance between training, recovery and enjoyment.
A typical day starts with breakfast at 7:00, followed by a morning session from 9:00 to 11:30 focused on athletic preparation and basketball fundamentals.
After lunch, rest and physiotherapy treatments, the afternoon continues with advanced basketball training, 3x3 tournaments, shooting contests and games.
And when the basketball stops, the experience continues.
Evenings are dedicated to group moments, international integration, education and social activities.
MORE THAN BASKETBALL
Dobbiaco is not simply the place where the camp takes place. It is part of the experience.
During the week, athletes will have the opportunity to explore the surrounding area through activities such as excursions to Lake Dobbiaco and Lake Braies, orienteering competitions, an afternoon at the swimming pool and a variety of group activities.
It is a chance to step away from the court, discover the Dolomites, experience nature and create friendships that can last well beyond the end of the camp.
Because some of the most important memories are made between one training session and the next.
SPORT AS A TOOL FOR INCLUSION
At TO.BE, sport is also education.
Throughout the week, specific activities will address the prevention and awareness of bullying and cyberbullying, using sport as a powerful tool to promote respect, empathy, inclusion, collaboration and positive leadership.
Bringing together young athletes from different backgrounds creates a unique opportunity to learn from one another, appreciate differences and grow together.
Different countries. Different stories. One court.
THE DOLOMITES AS YOUR PLAYGROUND
Imagine finishing a training session and looking up at the Dolomites.
That is Dobbiaco.
Located in the heart of Alta Pusteria, the camp combines a high-quality basketball experience with the opportunity to spend a week surrounded by nature and some of Italy's most spectacular mountain scenery.
For international athletes, it is also an opportunity to discover Italy from a completely different perspective โ through sport, community and the unique atmosphere of the Dolomites.
MAKING THE JOURNEY EASY
For athletes travelling internationally, arrivals can be organised through Verona Airport or Milan.
TO.BE offers a dedicated private shuttle service between Verona/Milan and Dobbiaco, including airport reception, luggage assistance, direct round-trip transportation, fuel, tolls and staff drivers.
Round-trip transfer: โฌ200 per participant.
The international flight is not included in the camp fee.
EVERYTHING YOU NEED FOR THE CAMP
The โฌ580 camp registration fee includes full board, training sessions, the technical kit and insurance.
Athletes can also add optional services:
Athletic Tests โ โฌ20
Recovery Kit โ โฌ30
For international participants, the dedicated Verona/Milan โ Dobbiaco transfer is available for โฌ200.
The estimated total investment is therefore approximately โฌ780 per participant, excluding the international flight, when the dedicated transfer is added.
AN INTERNATIONAL PROJECT
TO.BE Europe is more than a basketball camp.
It is a project built around youth mobility, international connection and personal development.
The idea is simple: bring young people from different places together through basketball and give them the opportunity to train, compete, explore, communicate and grow alongside one another.
Because sometimes, sport is the easiest language in the world to speak.
AN EXPERIENCE FOR COACHES TOO
TO.BE also wants to involve basketball clubs and their coaching staff.
For interested organisations, the project offers the opportunity for one coach to attend the camp, with TO.BE covering their travel expenses and full board for the duration of the experience.
It is an opportunity not only for young athletes, but also for coaches to experience the TO.BE philosophy and become part of an international basketball environment.
