Testimonials

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

What we love about ABA that has kept us coming back every session for 6 years, is how the coaches keep it fun! They instill confidence and a love of the game with a healthy level of competition and focus on sportsmanship. The coaches genuinely care for all the kids! We've missed ABA so much during the Covid shutdowns and will be back with the first opportunity!
Brenda Little, mother of two ABA players

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

ABA should actually stand for “Awesome Basketball Always”! The coaching staff, lead by Sean is fantastic. They are skilled, encouraging and know how to balance some healthy competition with the right amount of fun. Athletes of all levels are challenged appropriately and learn that trying their best is what matters. ABA is a wonderful environment all round.
Lhara Eben, ABA Parent

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

Tailored skills development; inclusive teamwork and play; empathetic coaching; the leadership integrity of Coach Loucks & his team…these are among the key and consistent features of a wonderful program that enables participants to grow, to compete with confidence, and to learn true sportsmanship.
Ken Peel, ABA Parent and Supporter

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

The ABA is a terrific basketball program, teaching kids the fundamentals of basketball and making it a fun experience for all. But what I admire most about the program is that the coaches are some of the best leaders I've ever come across, emphasizing that the best players are also the best teammates and the best humans. The lessons my kid will take away extend far beyond basketball.
Stephanie Hodnett, mother of Owen Hodnett

We have been part of the ABA family for over 10 years with both our daughter and son. What began with Saturday morning programs expanded to include summer camps, 3x3 leagues, high school workouts and culminated in our son playing rep for the Knights! All of the programs are very well-run and the coaching staff is amazing! Their enthusiasm and knowledge of basketball inspires the kids to improve their skills and compete while respecting the game and all participants. The sooner ABA is back the better!
Jeff W & Joanne D, ABA Parents

As one of the original members of the ABA league, watching the league grow over the years has been a true joy. Saturday mornings at the gym were always a mainstay for myself and my siblings. We learned so much about the game, as well as many life lessons that can be applied off the court.
