The students from Wainuiomata High School Basketball who attended the Hoop Nation Tournament during the last week of the school holidays would like to acknowledge and thank the amazing businesses, whānau, and community groups who got behind us.
Because of your support, our students not only looked professional in their new uniforms, but 16 young men were also able to experience a tournament that only one player had attended before. Opportunities like this create memories, growth, confidence, and experiences that go far beyond basketball.
Special thanks to:
• Love Wainuiomata
• Kokiri Marae
• Jittabugz
• Way of Life Fitness
• Frank Buttner
• Filipino Hoopers Wainuiomata
• Don Ramons Pinoy Barbeque
• RNC
• GROENZ
• Huia Pools
• Petone Lighthouse
• Hervey Whānau
• Smiler Whānau
• Wainuiomata High School
We also want to thank all the families and teams who support our community leagues and one-off tournaments. Every dollar raised goes back into creating positive basketball experiences, developing great young men, and hopefully in the future, providing the same opportunities for our young women as well.
Thank you for backing our players and our community.
