Kids Basketball (Hoop Stars)

Overview

The Y’s Hoop Stars kids’ basketball program offers a welcoming space for young basketball enthusiasts, whether they’re just starting their journey or have dreams of becoming skilled basketballers. It provides children aged 5 to 12 years old with the opportunity to learn, grow, and thrive through the sport of basketball.

Hoop Stars provides tailored basketball programs for different age groups and abilities: Bronze 5-7 years; Silver 8-10 years; Gold 11-12 years, and Platinum (Advanced Skill Level). Year after year, we have achieved remarkable success in retaining our players, a testament to the quality of our program.

Here are some of the fundamental skills learned in the Hoop Stars program:

  • Dribbling: the foundation of ball control in basketball. Children learn how to dribble the ball while maintaining control.
  • Shooting: kids learn shooting techniques, including shooting from different spots on the court.
  • Passing: a fundamental teamwork skill. Children learn various types of passes, such as chest passes, bounce passes, and overhead passes.
  • Footwork: good footwork is essential for both offense and defense. Children practice pivoting, cutting, and changing direction quickly.
  • Defense: defensive skills include learning how to guard an opponent, block shots, steal the ball, and position themselves to prevent the opposing team from scoring.
