Testimonials

My son loves ABA! He likes the variety of formats and says the coaches are great. As a parent, I appreciate that the ABA program is well-run, available throughout the year, and great value.
Kathleen Niccols, ABA Parent

I was one of the first players in the inaugural ABA league in 2003 and I’ve been connected ever since. Coach Loucks and his staff helped me to develop as a player. As a coach, it was a pleasure to join the team and offer the best program we could, focusing on skill development, fun, and teaching key principles like teamwork, confidence, and sportsmanship. Every time I visit ABA , I see it’s the same top-notch program which continues to evolve and improve. As a former college basketball player, UCC Sr. Basketball Camp director, and TDSB teacher, I can vouch for the ABA providing a premier quality service and experience to its players, campers, and staff.
Simon McCamus, ABA Alumni

For five years my son played for and, later as he matured, served as a youth coach for ABA. The coaches were pivotal in helping him develop both his basketball and coaching skills, providing positive and specific feedback and always displaying a great example of sportsmanship. His teen years were so enriched by all the fantastic kids and adults he met through ABA, and it will always hold a fond place in our hearts!
Helen Kim, mother of Chris Noh

The ABA is where teammates become friends, coaches become mentors, and basketball becomes family. I spent more than a decade in ABA programs through my formative years and my only regret is that I did not sign up sooner. I still proudly wear my ABA shirts from various seasons. Much love!
Alex Antunes, ABA Alumni

ABA was a great experience for my son when he was introduced to Coach Loucks almost 10 years ago. Not only were there clinics, house league and training sessions to join but there were other opportunities to participate in, the Gamecocks tournament, playing on the Raptors home court, volunteer opportunities and a trip to Europe to name a few. My son learned incredibly valuable skills both on and off the court. Coach Loucks is not only a great coach but a very kind person and it shows in his leadership as well as with the staff and volunteers that work with him.
Peggy Tsukamoto, mother of former ABA player

My son participated in the ABA program for many years. Coach Loucks was a great mentor whose coaching and teaching manner inspired and motivated Alex to mature and gain confidence on and off the basketball court. Thank you for providing a fun, safe yet challenging environment for kids to be themselves.
Ana Antunes, ABA Parent

Pass, box out and help on defense. If you know how to do those things, you will always find a place to play. That's what my grandson has gotten from ABA coaching. The drills are fun, the coaches are supportive and the kids come out of the experience with a love of the game. What more can you ask for?
Mike Hodnett, ABA Grandparent and Basketball Enthusiast

Our girls joined ABA when they were 8, and have been playing in various combinations of the Tues, Thurs, and Sat programs and several summer and March break camps for the last 7 years. They’ve loved every second of it - the perfect blend of fun, skills development, and healthy competition. The coaches are high-energy, knowledgeable, attentive, and inclusive. We looked into girls-only programs, but just never came across anything with the same sensibility and structure as ABA.
Matt Shoom-Kirsch, ABA Parent

Many years after Becky had finished playing at the ABA, I called Sean to ask if he had any photos. I really didn’t expect any. A bit later, having searched through years of photos, he sent me wonderful pictures of ‘Becky in action’. I loved them, and so did Becky, my now grown daughter. That says it all. Besides being an exceptionally knowledgeable coach and wonderful role model and leader of the ABA, he is also such a kind and generous person.
Don Jones, Dad of Becky Jones

The coaches' basketball knowledge and intensity create a fun atmosphere where the kids want to learn, compete and excel year after year.
Noah Rotman, former ABA Parent and North Toronto Rep Basketball Coach
