Sheila Dixon
Director of DIXON SPORT. United States.
"One of the things that stands out most about Mateo is his seemingly tireless energy. Whether he’s coaching 10-year-old girls or 25-year-old men, he brings incredible passion to every training session and game, demonstrating an unwavering commitment to each player’s personal and individual growth. I believe not all coaches have the capacity to be "teachers" of the game. To me, a teacher is an architect of potential and does more than impart knowledge. They cultivate an environment of resilience, confidence, and success. Mateo is a true teacher of the game. He demonstrates a profound understanding of basketball, combined with a natural ability to connect with players, coaching staff, and the community while balancing a high standard of professionalism with a down-to-earth character that resonates with everyone. Without a doubt, he remains the best coach I had throughout my career in Europe."
d’Àlex Llorca
Professional basketball player with experience in ACB, LEB Oro, and LEB Plata.
"Hi, I’m Àlex Llorca, and I want to share my experience working with Mateo Rubio. Mateo not only has a deep understanding of the game, but also an incredible ability to adapt to each player’s needs. He helped me grow as a player by focusing on specific aspects of my technique and tactics. His methodical approach and clear way of communicating ideas made a huge difference in my performance. Moreover, his passion and dedication to basketball are truly contagious, always inspiring you to give your best. If you’re looking for a coach who combines experience, strategic vision, and a personalized approach, I couldn’t recommend anyone better than Mateo Rubio. He is a leader who brings out the best in his players."
Nikola Jovanovic
Serbian player with experience in top leagues across Europe and America. Currently playing for Scafati in Italy’s Serie A.
"Hi, I’m Nikola Jovanovic, and this season I had the opportunity to work individually with Claudio. From the very beginning, his approach had an immediate impact on improving my game. His personalized training and ability to identify key areas for improvement made a significant difference. Claudio not only helped me refine my technique but also worked on my tactical awareness, always adapting it to the team’s context and needs. His knowledge, dedication, and attention to detail make him an outstanding coach."

Cristian Figueroa
Coach. CD Liceo Curicó LNB.Chile
"Having the opportunity to explore different cultures and visit Catalonia, one of the world’s basketball hubs, made me reflect deeply on how to further develop this sport in my club and city. Sharing experiences with top-level coaches provided me with a fresh perspective and, on a personal level, fueled my desire to improve even more. I learned a lot about basketball—game concepts, philosophies, and club structures. Additionally, I had the chance to watch high-level games live, including the EuroLeague, ACB, and Women’s Endesa League. It was 10 days fully immersed in basketball—talking about it, learning about it, and growing both as a coach and as a person."

"A coach's daily life is full of questions and reflections that arise from their own reality. Working with CBI has allowed me to continue shaping my path as a coach, providing me with a space for reflection, learning, and, without a doubt, the necessary feedback in this journey as a coach."

Rubén Engroba
Head of Álex Llorca Campus. Lugo. Spain.
"Mateo Rubio is one of the main reasons for the growth of our camp. Over the eight consecutive editions he participated in, many players and coaches attended because of his presence. A leader on and off the court, methodical in his organization, and exceptional in group management. A coach of coaches, demanding but with the perfect balance between giving his staff the freedom to develop their work and providing the necessary guidance to ensure everyone follows the best path for the technical program. Daily clinics full of learning, invaluable advice, and an outstanding teammate to consult on any subject. And on the court, he is at his best: creative, dynamic, clear in his explanations and concepts, pure talent at the service of the players he trains. Without a doubt, Mateo Rubio is a guarantee of success, teamwork, and excellence."
Emilio Saavedra
Campus Club Colina Basket. Colina. Chile.
"Working with CBI gave us access to high-quality knowledge and an innovative and efficient working methodology. Thanks to this collaboration, we were able to develop a camp that provided great learning opportunities for our players."
Carme Boix
Co-organizer of Mateo Rubio Camp. Ibiza. Spain.
"When passion, dedication, rigor, and excellence come together, exceptional work emerges. That was our experience with Mateo Rubio’s team at the first Basket Academy Camp in Ibiza. Mateo's professionalism is admirable because he brings a holistic vision, which is reflected in every detail of the planning and the execution of a meticulously designed program. His pedagogical approach not only inspired participants to learn but also left a lasting impact on their personal growth. Working with Mateo has been a smooth and enriching experience, thanks to his approachability, commitment, and ability. Congratulations on such an outstanding job, amazing team!"
Jesús Lojo
President of Club Puig d'en Valls. Ibiza. Spain.
"Our experience with Mateo has been transformational, both in sports and on a personal level. Since we started working with him, our players have not only improved their technique and skills on the court, but they have also learned valuable lessons about discipline, teamwork, and personal growth. He has a unique way of communicating that makes every session productive and fun while keeping the goals in sight. Mateo has instilled values such as respect, honesty, and the importance of maintaining a positive mindset. Thank you, Mateo, for your dedication and approach. Your influence has been crucial to the growth of my players and, therefore, to the club we represent. Forever grateful!!"

Mariano Marcos
Coordinator of Argentine National Teams and FIBA Instructor. Argentina.
"First of all, I want to highlight that back when Mateo was at F.C. Barcelona, with all the prestige and experience he had (which is even greater now), he didn’t hesitate for a second to accept the proposal to conduct a Zoom clinic for a small province like Misiones. This reflects his humility, passion, and the values that define him in this wonderful sport. The clinic opened our minds because he used innovative ideas and perspectives that we had never seen in any other clinic before. On the other hand, I was lucky enough to meet him through my son, whom he coached. We have the best memories, not only because of his knowledge and expertise but also because of the emotional support he provided during difficult moments in life, the kind that any young athlete must face. Eternally grateful, Mateo. I will always follow you, wherever you are coaching, as a true fan of your work."
