Hoop Skool is a supportive family of children and young adults who are passionate about basketball and love encouraging one another on their basketball journey. Before Hoopskool my daughter had many hobbies but hadn’t yet found her passion and her tribe. Now she has both! She was 10 when she started and I think she’ll be a HoopSkooler for life! Since Hoopskool she has already learned a valuable life lesson, you don’t get anywhere without hard work and putting in the hours. I see her pride when she challenges herself and subsequently realises her goals. Like her “big sisters” in Hoopskool she is eager to pass on her knowledge and mentor and motivate her own younger sister! Favourite programme – they all are! But the harder the training the better. Her highlights were the Basketball  IQ sessions and the tips from the American coaches. Why would you recommend? I honestly believe my 12 year old wouldn’t have got through this last year without Hoopskool. During the various lockdowns her zoom lessons gave a structure to her day and helped her focus and organise her time. Gillian is absolutely amazing at what she does, she not only coaches but she nurtures and inspires the children to be better players and to be better people. You could not find a better coach online and in-person. Her knowledge of the game and her coaching skills are phenomenal. Gillian lights a spark and lets the players shine. She’s simply the best!
