Get ready to up your game, young basketball enthusiasts, because registration for the 2026 Hoopster Plus Developmental Basketball Program is about to bounce into action. According to the Department of Parks and Recreation, the online doors will swing open for registrants on November 26 at 8 a.m., with no fees to block their path. Interested families can set their alarms and log onto the Parks and Recreation Basketball Programs site to sign up their fourth graders.
The Hoopster Plus program isn't just another drill; it's designed as a critical step-up for kids moving from the less competitive Mini and Junior Hoopsters leagues into the big leagues of youth basketball, with the program's sessions running through January and taking place at the Kalāheo Neighborhood Center Gym. These young players will get to enjoy two sessions a week on Mondays and Wednesdays starting January 5, meaning they'll get eight chances to refine their dribbling, shots, and defensive maneuvers under the guidance of seasoned instructors.
For a visual on what's to come, there's a program flyer just a click away on the County's website. And if you're seeking further info straight from the hoop's mouth, Clyde Vito is your go-to guy and can be reached at 808-335-3731 or via a quick email at [email protected].
