Hoops Legacy
Whenever the NBA come to the United Kingdom, games sell out in double-quick time. That’s an indication of the appeal of basketball to the British public and if you’ve got a child who is caught up in the popularity of the sport, then joining Hoops Legacy can be a fun activity for them to take part in.
Hoops Legacy run weekly basketball sessions for players of all ages and abilities from their base at the Everyone Active Westcroft Leisure Centre in Carshalton. For kids looking to get involved with the sport, there is a specialist Sunday afternoon slot between 4.30pm and 6pm in which boys and girls between five and 16 can simply turn up and play.
No registration is required – just turn up on the day, pay for your hour-and-a-half of basketball and away you go.
