Put simply, Ford Aussie Hoops introduces children to basketball in a structured and accredited environment. It is designed for children new to the sport and focuses on teaching basic basketball skills.
Ford Aussie Hoops is a national program which provides an environment where children of all abilities can achieve on the court and reap the rewards of skill development, enhanced self-esteem, social co-operation and grassroots sports participation.
