"Bb4All is absolutely the best coaching in Kamloops that my kids have had and we have done many sports and many basketball programs. The quality of this coaching is on a level of it's own. Goran and his team have excellent technical coaching skills, aim for fun and perfection, and teach work ethic, determination, and the mental aspects of the game. These are all life skills but learned with the joy of basketball. In only just a few short weeks we can see huge improvements in skill, confidence and enjoyment of the game. We are so glad to have found Bb4All. If you are looking for something extra to help your child succeed and love the game of basketball don't look anywhere else."

Coach Goran has a big passion for basketball and lots of technical knowledge which he perfectly transmits to the athletes participating at Bb4All Academy. My two boys (13 and 10 years old) truly enjoy and appreciate Coach Goran training sessions and both of them have improved their basketball skills exponentially. Kamloops is lucky to have a person with this level of worldwide basketball experience and available to transfer this to the players.

"We were fortunate to meet coach Nogic at the beginning of our son’s basketball life at the age of nine. It didn’t take long for Goran’s energy and enthusiasm to inspire Adrian and to fall in love with the sport, we feel for the rest of his life. Today, our son is 16, he lives for basketball and his teammates are actually his best friends. The results of Goran’s lessons can be seen not only in games but also in every day's situations as Adrian understands how important determination and stamina are for basketball, school and life in general."

"Coach Goran is an excellent coach, mentor and role model for my children. He has coached both kids since a very young age and has inspired them to love and have deep passion for basketball. As they both come closer to achieving their lifelong dream of playing university basketball, we know that this would not be possible without Goran’s hard work and dedication to them."
"Coach Goran runs an excellent youth basketball program for both boys and girls. My son trained with Goran at the age of 8 years old, and it’s had a lasting impact on his game, even to this very day - 3 years later. Goran cares about all the players he coaches and he teaches them the game of basketball the right way. Consider your child extremely lucky to have the opportunity to be coached by Goran and playing for a Basketball 4 All competitive team."

"Playing for Coach Goran taught me skills to better improve myself as a player and teammate. The amount of hours he dedicated to his players pushed me to recognize that with hard work and dedication an athlete can improve beyond what they initially assumed.
I am very thankful to have had the opportunity to be coached by Goran"
"I was fortunate to have Coach Nogic be a member of our 3D coaching staff for four years. During his tenure with us, Coach was able re-organize our program and develop the necessary skills base to make our program a perennial contender every year. I have no hesitation in recommending Coach Goran to any program or athlete looking to grow their game."

"Goran Nogic is an amazing coach who is passionate about player development and basketball. During the time I played with him I received some of the best coaching of my life and he pushed me in all the right direction. He said what I needed to hear in order to push me to success. Without him, I would not be able to be where I am and all my future success can be massively attributed to the early coaching and player development I received while playing underneath him."

"Coach Nogic is the most passionate and dedicated coach I have ever seen. He truly wants his players to succeed and goes above and beyond in helping them achieve their goals.

"Goran is a coach who trusts 100% in his players, always working with the utmost rigor and quality to extract the maximum potential from each one. He demands the most from each player on the field, but off it gives what he has and what he doesn't have for the well-being of his players. There is no doubt that Goran has had, and will always have, a huge influence on my career. I will always be grateful that I had him as a coach!"
