Aussie Hoops was introduced in 2002 with the support of the Australian Sports Commission.

The Aussie Hoops program is about kids having fun and using a "game sense" approach, while learning the experience of basketball by playing a series of games. Aussie Hoops is for boys and girls of any ability (includng wheelchair) and between the ages of 5 and 12 years. It can be played all year around, indoors or out and has many activites.  You don't even need a hoop!

Aussie Hoops is delivered in schools and associations all over Australia. The "In School Program" can be during or after school time, can be a "one-off" session or weekly program. Aussie Hoops at the stadium can either be a holiday camp or weekly program during school term.

There are plenty of activities you can do, handy session plans and activity cards mean that coaches and parents or even teenagers can eaily run a session. Kids develop their basketball and general motor skills through the program doing modified activites and games. They are having so much fun, they dont even realize they are learning!
