More Than a Team.
A Development Pathway.
Hoops House Junior Teams combine structured professional training with real competition — giving young players the right foundation while building confidence, teamwork, and game understanding.

Unlike school teams, our Junior Teams are built around:
Professional Hoops House training sessions

This is not just a team.
It’s a structured entry into the Hoops House pathway.
