Hope Thru Hoops
Hope Thru Hoops is a flagship basketball program by Hi5 Youth Foundation designed to empower underprivileged children through structured coaching, mentorship, and life skills development. It is a multi-level training program that gives children access to high-quality coaching, professional development, and a winning mindset.
From basic skill development to advanced game strategy, this multi-year journey transforms young players, helping them build discipline, teamwork, and self-belief through the experience of playing and winning matches. With a strong emphasis on gender equality, Hi5 ensures both boys and girls receive equal opportunities to excel.
For many, Hope Thru Hoops is more than just basketball — it is their first experience of success and a platform to dream bigger.
The Hope Thru Hoops basketball program at Hi 5 is structured across four progressive levels to ensure players develop their skills systematically:
