About Us

Training Basketball Céline Dumerc was established in 2015 with a clear mission: to foster the growth of young athletes through basketball while promoting values that extend beyond the court. Based in Jaillans, our association has grown into a thriving community of players, coaches, mentors, and families, all united by a shared passion for the sport and a commitment to personal development.

Our organization is named in honor of Céline Dumerc, an outstanding athlete whose dedication, discipline, and achievements in basketball serve as a model for all of our programs. Her career represents not only sporting excellence but also the spirit of leadership, teamwork, and perseverance that we aim to instill in every participant.


Our Purpose and Philosophy

At Training Basketball Céline Dumerc, basketball is more than a game. It is a platform for learning, growth, and character development. Our philosophy is grounded in the belief that sport can shape individuals, helping them develop essential life skills while encouraging physical fitness and healthy competition.

We focus on:

  • Teamwork and Collaboration: Basketball requires coordination, communication, and trust among teammates. Our programs emphasize working together, supporting one another, and valuing collective success over individual achievement.
  • Discipline and Perseverance: Training and competition demand focus, consistency, and resilience. We encourage athletes to push their limits, overcome challenges, and maintain dedication both on and off the court.
  • Respect and Fair Play: Respect for coaches, peers, opponents, and the rules of the game is central to our approach. We teach athletes that integrity and sportsmanship are as important as skill and talent.
  • Civic Responsibility: Beyond athletic performance, we aim to develop responsible citizens who contribute positively to their communities. Our programs integrate lessons on ethics, respect, and social engagement.

This philosophy guides every aspect of our association, from coaching methods to program design, ensuring that participants grow not only as basketball players but as well-rounded individuals.


Our History

Founded in 2015, Training Basketball Céline Dumerc began as a small initiative to provide structured basketball training for youth in the Jaillans area. At the time, there was a clear need for organized programs that emphasized both skill development and personal growth.

Starting with a handful of committed young players, the association quickly gained recognition for the quality of its training and the values it promoted. Families and community members saw the benefits of structured coaching combined with mentorship, and the association grew steadily over the years.
