"This program for special needs is nothing short of miraculous. You have to see it to believe it. It's filled with hard work and joy every Saturday!"

"Fantastic father-son basketball duo who bring empathy, joy, and basketball principles to players who would not otherwise have this opportunity."
Ozan Baydur
"I really liked working with the coaches. While they kept encouraging, they also pushed me to be a better player. I improved my style a great deal within 8 weeks and I learned many moves. I could hardly wait for each class on Saturdays and I cannot wait for the next season."

"My daughter's participation in Uptown Hoops has created a space for movement, companionship and joy to counter the frequent isolation, loneliness and sedentary patterns of life with which our family members with ID so often struggle. Catherine's Saturday morning sessions are a highlight of her life! Thank you, Coach Ken, Nate and District 3"

"Both of my kids when they started they couldn't even bounce the ball and to see that with each session they improve is just wonderful."

"My son joined, then my daughter who had never played basketball joined too and then one other son joined. The coached are the kind of people kids are fortunate to have. 5 stars!!!"
