Testimonials

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 are looking forward to getting back to the ABA when circumstances allow.
Moe Berg, ABA Parent

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

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

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

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 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

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 played, coached, toured and taught with ABA. He had great opportunities to develop his basketball and leadership skills.
What I feel was the most valuable skill, the most compelling reason to have him involved, was that there was a respect and concern
that was equal for each player and member of ABA no matter what age or position they held - average or awesome.
