Testimonials

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 opportunities that I have been able to be a part of because of Coach Loucks and ABA are actually beyond words. I cant thank them enough for bringing me in and making me feel like family. Through the program and the people involved I grew not only as a basketball player but also as a man, looking forward to the continued work and the bright future that they provide at ABA. #gamecocksforlife
David McCormack

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 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

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

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 a family we absolutely LOVE the ABA. Sean is so responsive, which is not the case with many other sports clubs. The program is set up to grow their skills, have fun and play games. It is brilliantly done and the staff are amazing! Their game knowledge is great, but even better is their ability to keep drills and games fun. My son plays competitive soccer and rep baseball too, but ABA is where my he has the most FUN!
Rob Goldstein, ABA Parent

ABA has been a huge part of the social and sporting lives of our two boys. It's not only been a great place for them to learn the right way to play basketball. It's been a source of lasting friendships and learning. The coaches, led by Coach Loucks, are first class all the way.
