Trusted by FIBA. Built for the future of basketball.

Basketball continues to evolve across Europe. As the game becomes faster, more technical and increasingly competitive, clubs, academies, federations and coaches are looking for smarter ways to develop players.

Every minute on the court matters. Players need more quality repetitions, coaches need efficient training tools, and organizations need technology that can support development at every level.

Dr. Dish is built to help meet that challenge. 

As the Official Shooting Machine Company of FIBA, Dr. Dish is proud to support the global basketball community and the continued development of the game across Europe and beyond. 

A Partnership Built Around Player Development

The relationship between Dr. Dish and FIBA is built on a shared commitment to innovation and player development.

When FIBA selected Dr. Dish as an Endorsed Equipment partner, Bart Prinssen, FIBA's Head of Equipment & Venue Centre, highlighted the shared vision behind the partnership:

“FIBA has chosen Dr. Dish Basketball as an Endorsed Equipment partner because of our shared commitment to helping basketball players around the world improve, as well as our drive for innovation. We look forward to growing the game of basketball together with Dr. Dish.”

That shared commitment remains at the heart of the relationship today.

For Dr. Dish, innovation isn't about technology for technology's sake. It's about giving coaches and players better tools to make training more purposeful, efficient and engaging.

Making Every Training Session Count

Court time is valuable, especially in a competitive European basketball environment.

Dr. Dish shooting machines help reduce downtime by automatically returning the ball, allowing players to spend more time shooting and less time chasing rebounds. Coaches can use structured drills and training modes to create sessions built around repetition, movement, decision-making and shooting development.

The result is a training environment where players can get more meaningful work done in a shorter amount of time.

Whether it’s an individual workout, small-group session or team practice, Dr. Dish gives coaches another tool to maximize every possession.

Technology That Supports the Coach

Dr. Dish isn't designed to replace coaching. It’s designed to enhance it.

Modern player development is increasingly data-driven. Shooting technology can give coaches additional insight into how players train and perform, while giving athletes measurable goals to work toward.

With structured workouts, shooting statistics and training modes, coaches can create more intentional sessions and players can better understand their progress.

That means players aren't simply taking more shots, they're training with greater purpose.

Trusted Across European Basketball

Dr. Dish technology is already being used by leading basketball organizations across Europe, from professional clubs to academies and federations.

The FIBA partnership reinforces Dr. Dish's commitment to serving that basketball community and supporting the next generation of players.

Because whether you're developing a professional athlete or introducing a young player to the fundamentals of the game, the goal is the same:

Build a better shooter. 

Building the Future of Basketball

The best players don't stop developing. They continue to find ways to make their training more purposeful, their repetitions more consistent and their preparation more effective.

That's why Dr. Dish is proud to be the Official Shooting Machine Company of FIBA.

From grassroots programs to elite European clubs, Dr. Dish is helping create opportunities for players to get more shots, train with purpose and build confidence through repetition.

The game is evolving.
Training should evolve with it.
