On
the request of sisters Milena and Sonja,
their father Rade, a Secretary General
of the Basketball Federation of Serbia
and Montenegro at the time, made a school
of basketball in primary school “Petar
Petrovic Njegos”. Seventeen girls of
Milena's generation (1987) entered a
training process, and among them only
Sonja, born in 1989, was two years younger.
That kind of start – to play with older
players follows her from then up to
nowadays. The training was performed
three times a week, with balls for mini
basket.In the next season, there weren't
any important changes – the whole program
was adjusted to Sonja's development
and special attention was paid to the
load level.The school of basketball
managed by father – the coach was still
working. The trainings were held three
times a week. Elements of technique
and shoot were practiced. Games have
not been played yet.
