Meet our Montana Basketball Academy Lead

A former Serbian national team player and a commanding center throughout his playing career, Nemanja has been successfully building his coaching and organisational career in Switzerland since 2022. Following his move to Zurich that year and a role as Sports Director at one of the city's largest clubs, he launched his first independent venture — Skills Academy CH, the first specialised basketball academy in the German-speaking part of Switzerland, dedicated to the development of individual technique and tactics.
 
As Lead of the Montana Basketball Academy, Nemanja will ensure that Montana achieves the highest quality standards not only in academic excellence but also in basketball — establishing the school as a leading destination for performance-oriented youth development.
