Testimonials

As a family we absolutely LOVE the ABA. Sean is so responsive, which is not the case with many other sports clubs. The program is set up to grow their skills, have fun and play games. It is brilliantly done and the staff are amazing! Their game knowledge is great, but even better is their ability to keep drills and games fun. My son plays competitive soccer and rep baseball too, but ABA is where my he has the most FUN!
Rob Goldstein, ABA Parent

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 taught my daughter more than just excellent basketball skills - they taught her sportsmanship and gave her a community. Every member of the ABA organization from top to bottom is an excellent role model. These are the people you want teaching your kids.
Mark Hodnett, 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

As a former ABA player and coach, I cherish the countless memories and rewarding experiences. Coach Loucks is genuine in his pursuit to ensure every participant has a positive experience while attending the ABA and has always been there for his players and staff off the court too. All the coaches he recruits share the same passion and commitment and it translates to an amazing basketball program for everyone involved. I enrolled several friends and family members so they too can benefit from the program. Can't say enough of how much I loved Saturday mornings because of ABA!!!
Tameem Sharifi, ABA Alumni

Your child will learn more than basketball skills. Coach Loucks’ leadership builds discipline, self-respect and commitment to a team, all qualities that serve both on and beyond the court.
Kathy Peel, ABA Parent and Supporter

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

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 is such a wonderful sports program - my son has had a great time in it over many years, the summer camp as well! The coaches are so supportive and fun, we highly recommend ABA!!
Roberta Scott, ABA Parent

The ABA is an excellent place for players of all ages to refine their skills, meet life long friends, and have fun! Having worked with the ABA as a coach, I saw first hand on how dedicated both the coaches and the players are in getting better and playing/teaching the game they love. Coach Loucks does a remarkable job in fostering a strong basketball culture founded on respect, discipline, love and dedication. Best youth basketball league in Toronto hands down.
