Night Hoops is a non-profit organization that provides late-night basketball programming for at-risk youth and offers them the chance to grow and learn in a supervised and supportive environment.
Night Hoops connects youth with their community through the organization of basketball leagues which are based out of community centres, neighbourhood houses, community schools, and the youth custody services. Night Hoops gives youth an opportunity to wear a jersey and be part of a team while representing their community. A fundamental principle of Night Hoops is inclusion; there are no gender, skill-level or economic barriers to participation.
