Aussie Hoops

Basketball Australia’s Ford Aussie Hoops is the official introductory basketball program for children aged 5–10 years, designed to give young players their first experience in the game in a fun, safe and inclusive environment.

Through engaging activities, skill challenges and modified games, participants learn the fundamentals of basketball — including dribbling, passing, shooting and teamwork — while building confidence and developing a love for the sport. The nationally developed curriculum ensures sessions are age-appropriate and progressively prepare players for the next step into local competitions and development programs.

Aussie Hoops is the perfect starting point for young athletes beginning their basketball journey and becoming part of the Spiders community.
