Led by Coach David Adelman, the “Hoops Education” formula for success was built on teaching basketball fundamentals and team-oriented play. Play Hard Hoops creates the positive atmosphere that allows participants to communicate, play competitively, learn, and most importantly have fun. “Hoops Education” can be defined by five words: Enthusiasm, Teamwork, Attitude, Character, and Gratitude.
