FREE: Youth Basketball Summer League

I am excited and proud to announce I have established a non-profit arm of Next Basket Wins called Grit and Grind Basketball Foundation. Its creation aims to deliver an opportunity to all youth to learn, play, and compete in the game of basketball. One of the first free events we will offer to get it all started is a youth summer basketball league only for Hoboken residents. Please find all the information about this event below. Stay tuned for our upcoming fundraising events, scholarship applications, and free programming events.

Best Swishes,

Outdoor Spring Youth Instructional Programs

Back outdoors at Columbus Park for fresh air, open space and basketball for all! Programs on both Saturday or Sunday for your convenience.

This program permit through Hudson County Parks is filed with our brand new basketball non-profit which will serve those who are less fortunate with the opportunity to play the game we all love. All proceeds will go toward funding and supporting that mission for every child who wishes to play the game of basketball in and around the Hoboken area. All on-court basketball coaching will be provided by Next Basket Wins.
