With the NBA post season coming to a close, the summer will focus on draft prospects, trades and conditioning within each team, in preparation for next season. But if you are a basketball enthusiast like me, you want basketball all year round. What better way to spend the summer, than at one of the premier street-ball leagues like Hoops in the Sun.
Hoops in
the Sun, Inc. is a community based street-ball program that takes place at
Orchard beach in Bronx, New York. The program was founded in 2000 by Joe “Pops”
Cruz Sr. and his sons Joe Jr. and Randy.The organization has created a platform for
college standouts and professional ballers highlighting their individual
skills. What
once was an 8-team league for men 18 years and older, has now expanded to a 10-team
league for men, women and a youth division.
To tip
off the summer, Hoops in the Sun also had a spectacular spring league that just
wrapped up yesterday for the men and youth divisions. Having attended the most recent games of the
spring season I can personally attest to the phenomenal talent on display. I will have the
pleasure of working with Joe Jr. and Randy Cruz this summer to bring all the
news, highlights, play-by-play and statistics featured right here at http://www.hoopsandstyle.com and http://hoopsinthesun.net/ Also games will stream live via U-stream at http://ustre.am/VfFN
.
Come
out, enjoy a day at the beach and get your basketball fix this summer by attending
the games. Trust me you don’t want to miss this. The summer league starts on
June 8th, stay tuned.
