Little Hoopers is a child-friendly version of basketball specifically designed to introduce small children to the game of basketball. It provides a safe and fun environment for kids to learn all the fundamental skills while developing key motor skills and fitness. We play with smaller basketballs, lower hoops and less children per session to allow coaches to support each child during the session. Our aim is for our sessions to be fun, engaging and educational.

Negative experience

My son attended little hoopers at Becontree centre and we was very disappointed with coaches at that centre very unorganised not much interest teaching children overall we had bad experience and when we wanted to cancel our subscription we tried contacting them to tell that but no reply so we just had to cancel DD through bank.

If your child likes basketball and has interest in playing I definitely wont recommend attending classes at becontree centre .

Dear Ugna,

We’re genuinely sorry to hear about your disappointing experience at the Becontree Centre. We understand how important it is for children to have an engaging, organised, and supportive environment, and it’s unfortunate that we fell short of these expectations during your son’s session.

Unfortunately, on that particular day, we were understaffed due to the last-minute cancellation of two of our coaches, leaving just one coach to manage a session that typically has three. We know that this impacted the quality of the experience, and we sincerely apologise for the inconvenience and frustration this caused.

To ensure this doesn’t happen again, we’ve launched a new recruitment drive to expand our coaching team, which will provide better coverage and support in cases of unforeseen circumstances.

Thank you for bringing this to our attention, as it helps us improve our service. We hope you’ll consider giving Little Hoopers another chance in the future, and we’d love the opportunity to provide a better experience for you and your son.

Warm regards,
The Little Hoopers Team

I am disappointed on this companies…

I am disappointed on this companies unprofessionalism when it comes to interviewing. Twice my son has tried to arrange to have an interview with them which they called for and no one turned up at the interview, didn’t even call to apologise, what is going on?

Hello Pauline,

Thank you for your feedback.

We wanted to clarify the situation regarding your son’s interview. After initially rescheduling the interview, we did not hear back on the day, but your son later reached out to apologise for missing it. We genuinely did our best to accommodate and rearrange the interview, and it's unfortunate that things didn't work out as planned.

We are sorry for any frustration this may have caused and would be happy to discuss any concerns further.

We love little hoopers

We love little hoopers! My little boy has been begging to do basketball like his big cousin for so long and little hoopers is the only place we found that coaches little ones from as young as 3 years old. The coaches are so patient and the kids have a great time. We’ve recommended them to everyone in the area!

My toddler loves it!

My 3-year-old son has absolutely loved every moment of it. The coaches are patient, engaging, and skilled at making the sessions fun and educational. It's amazing to see my little one's confidence and coordination improve week by week. The focus on basic skills and teamwork is fantastic for his development. I couldn't be happier with the positive impact this class has had on my toddler. We're definitely looking forward to more exciting sessions!
