Anca Sasu / Club Inot Swimming Team/ swimming coach
"When it comes to Sasha, I have nothing but praise. The time we worked together allowed me to discover an athlete endowed with all the essential qualities needed for a champion's profile. From our very first interactions, he caught my attention with his eagerness to understand movements as thoroughly as possible and his enthusiasm to apply everything he learned. He was able to complete the exercises with ease. He stood out not only through his exceptional physical abilities but also through his determination and willpower, which brought him remarkable results. But the most important thing—the one that helped me more easily accept his choice to pursue basketball as a performance sport—was the team spirit he consistently displayed in every competition he took part in.I sincerely wish him good health and the opportunity to show his full potential at the highest level. ❤️🙏🍀🏆🏀"
Iulian Florea / Shooting Stars Steaua / Basketball Coach
"Sasha is the kind of kid who truly lives for basketball. Every time he steps on the court, you can see the passion in his eyes and the determination with which he plays every single minute. He’s incredibly committed and never does things halfway — for him, every practice is an opportunity to get better.
His talent is obvious, but what truly makes him special is his ambition. Sasha fights until the last second, no matter the score. He has a big heart and isn’t afraid to show how much he cares — sometimes he even cries after a lost game, but even then, those tears fuel his drive to work even harder next time.
He’s a role model for his teammates through his work ethic and his attitude when facing challenges. I’m convinced that his future in basketball is bright, because Sasha never stops wanting more from himself.
In short: Sasha doesn’t just play basketball — he lives it."
Octavian Boian / CSM 2 Constanța / Basketball Coach
"Sasha Ciobanu is one of the few truly coachable players at a young age (we worked together when he was around 10–11 years old). With the eagerness of a sponge to absorb information and the patience of an old wise man with a white beard, he managed to complete every task with a smile on his face.
Beyond the qualities listed above—those of an experienced player—he also showed punctuality, consistency, and skill. Thanks to clearly set goals, he was able to apply every element or sequence of movements in real games, together with his teammates, where he demonstrated strong team spirit and leadership from his very first baby and mini basketball tournaments."
