HUB | Newsletter — October 2026

🏀 A Message from Our Founders,

Dear HUB Families,

When we launched HUB | HOOPS UNITED BASKETBALL on 1st June 2026, we had a vision: to create a "third space" for young athletes—a safe, inclusive community beyond school and home where they could grow through basketball.

Just under five months later, we're proud to say that vision is becoming a reality.
And none of it would have been possible without you.

🌟 Our Milestones So Far

Since June, we've reached some meaningful milestones:

• Developed children's confidence through sport — visible on and off the training session

• Created a brilliant community — one that feels increasingly unique in this day and age

• Earned recognition from Rushmoor — a proud moment that shows our grassroots model is working

This recognition isn't just an award—it's validation that our approach to community basketball is making a real difference.

💪 More Than Basketball

Everything we do is designed to build skills for life.
Through our sessions, we've contributed to our members' development in:

• Mental resilience

• Leadership

• Sportsmanship

• Life skills

• Physical education

• Teamwork

• Discipline

• Social skills and interaction

These are the outcomes that matter most—and they're why we do what we do.

🙏 Thank You

To every member, parent, and supporter who has been part of this journey—thank you.

We promise that our social enterprise will remain as it is: every membership fee is invested back into the club, into our players, and into our community.
That commitment will never change.

📈 Growing Organically

We're proud to say that our membership base continues to grow organically—through:

• Word of mouth

• Member recommendations

• Social media channels

• Google search

This growth is a testament to the community we're building together.
We're proud of our achievements—and we share them with our parents and their children, because none of this happens without you.

🎉 Our First Basketball Games Event

This October, we brought our members out of the training session and into the stands for our first basketball games event—watching the Surrey 89ers live. Highlights can be seen here for FREE.

It was a brilliant evening—not just for basketball, but for the chance to see our members interact, share moments together, and experience the game as a community.

We look forward to more events like this in the months ahead.

🚀 Looking Ahead

We're excited about what's next: more sessions, more members, more milestones—and more opportunities for our young people to grow through the game we love.

Thank you for being part of the HUB family. Here's to the journey ahead.

Warm regards,

Ryan, Daniel & Vish
