Testimonials

The extra skills practice our son gained by training with ABA gave our son the necessary skills to excel in the game. The coaches were excellent, and we really appreciated how they encouraged our son's competitive spirit! Shooting class was the best!
Viktoria Jovanovic-Krstic, ABA Parent

The ABA is an excellent place for players of all ages to refine their skills, meet life long friends, and have fun! Having worked with the ABA as a coach, I saw first hand on how dedicated both the coaches and the players are in getting better and playing/teaching the game they love. Coach Loucks does a remarkable job in fostering a strong basketball culture founded on respect, discipline, love and dedication. Best youth basketball league in Toronto hands down.
Louis Floras

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

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

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

What we love about ABA that has kept us coming back every session for 10 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!
Brenda Little, mother of two ABA players

The ABA has given our son, Hartford, an opportunity to play the game he loves in an organized and competitive environment. However, the competition is rooted in fairness, sportsmanship and learning sound basketball skills. We always look forward to ABA!
Moe Berg, ABA Parent

I would also like to say that I am very impressed with the ABA League. It is so well organized and all the coaches and staff are great and the quality of the drills and games are perfect for this group of kids. Thank you for the great work all of you do. We hope to be part of the ABA for years to come.
Steve Arroyave, ABA Parent

Our son was part of the ABA family for 8 years. He had the good fortune to have coaches who were exemplary role models. They cared about their players, and their mentorship went far beyond the court. Aside from basketball skills and hard work, they emphasized the value of teamwork, respect, and supporting others. An experience such as this begins at the top. Thank you, Coach Loucks, for fostering an exceptional environment for players, coaches, and parents!
