Get ready for a great day of building friendships, breaking down barriers, and competing for a good cause. Whether you are a parent, an athlete, or someone who just loves being part of something bigger, HoopFest is where you want to be.

This incredible day features two exciting events: a free clinic hosted by E-Hoops for kids ages 3+, and a 5-on-5 tournament. Both events have the same purpose: bringing people together, celebrating the inclusion of those with disabilities, and building community through the love of the game.

E-Hoops clinic: Where every kid belongs

The E-Hoops clinic is a free, inclusive basketball experience where kids of all abilities come together to learn, play, and grow. Neurodivergent kids participate alongside their neurotypical peers. All participants will enjoy an unforgettable day of fun and friendship. No basketball experience is needed, just energy and a willingness to have fun!

The E-Hoops clinic is also a great volunteer opportunity. If you would like to volunteer as a coach, please fill out the volunteer application and waiver linked below. No previous coaching experience is required; we will equip you to help every kid feel included and encouraged.

Clinic details:

• Time: 11:00 AM start time
• Cost: Free for both participants and volunteer coaches
