🏀 MINI METRO SPONSORSHIP OPPORTUNITY 🏀
We are looking for a local business sponsor for our upcoming Hardwick Mini Metro basketball season!

This program will provide opportunities for our 5/6 and 7/8 grade boys and girls teams to compete in the VT Cats League this winter. We are excited to continue building basketball opportunities for our local athletes — and we’d love to partner with a community business to help make it happen!

⭐ Sponsorship Cost: $1,200
⭐ Your company name/logo featured on the back of all Mini Metro jerseys
⭐ Great community exposure throughout the November–February season
⭐ Support local youth athletics and help keep costs affordable for families

Hardwick Mini Metro is a nonprofit program, and we can provide a tax donation letter for sponsorship contributions.

This sponsorship will help cover the cost of a full jersey set for our teams while giving your business visibility all season long.

If you or a business you know may be interested in sponsoring our Mini Metro program, please message us for more details!

Thank you for supporting Hardwick youth basketball and our young athletes! 🏀❤️

We have a tradition where we give our Juniors who have played with us all the way through, an alumni shirt. These three have been Mustangs since 5/6 grade. We appreciate you and your families for your ongoing support and we will miss having you on the court.

We only had one team playing last weekend, the 8th grade girls! They went to Maine to play and do some bonding to end their season. To recognize that. Their coaches Natalie and Shawn wanted to give the GOAT to the entire squad.

For my last goat pick of the season, I wanted to do a shoutout to the whole team. Every single one of these girls deserves recognition for their dedication and hard work this AAU season. Watching this group of girls grow, improve, and push each other in practice and every tournament weekend is something special. I am so proud of you all. Thanks for a great season!💙🏀🧡

We had 4 GOATS last week that were enjoying their school vacation so we wanted to make sure they still got the recognition they deserved! Ella, Silas, Mia and Damien! Here is what their coaches had to say!

My GOAT of the week is, Ella. Every tournament, every practice, she gives 100% and never anything less. This weekend was no different. She made plays on offense scoring, assists, setting up the offense. She played great defense, and help defense all weekend with countless steals. Very coachable player and very deserving!

5/6 Hill Goat is Silas. All season Silas has been a positive teammate, super coachable, and gives his best effort. This weekend our whole team had to take on different roles and step up in new ways because we were missing some players. Silas showed up to the challenge! He took on defensive match ups on the other teams’ top scorers and helped lead the team with his positive attitude.

Our goat of the week is Mia! She stepped up huge this weekend when we were down players. She was an offensive threat looking to score, battled for rebounds, and was a key defender. Way to go Mia!

Damien had an awesome weekend. He rebounded very well and played strong defense while also hitting multiple three point shots.

Great job! Let’s give them a cheer!

Good luck to our 8th girls as they earned 2 place going 2-1 this weekend and are playing at 3 for the right to play for the championship at 4!

We have just one team playing this weekend. Our 8th grade girls are headed to Maine. This is one of our favorite places to play! Enjoy your weekend away.

It’s GOAT time! This crew included some of our siblings in the program. We are lucky to have several sets of siblings, at times even 3, in the program at the same time. Here is wha their coaches had to say:

Goat

Kobe did a little bit of everything this weekend for us and played really well in all four games. He spent time at point guard, attacked the rim, guarded the opposing team’s top players and rebounded relentlessly. His voice and leadership were huge as well.

GOAT

Marina Smith, worked hard on both of the ends of the floor all weekend. Grabbing rebound after rebound, pushing the ball and seeing the floor for assist after assist. The ultimate team player, ready to fill whatever position was thrown her way and take on any challenge.

Brantley is my GOAT of the week. He was a huge part of a great 3-1 weekend. Set up teammates and silently lit up every team this weekend by playing off our defense and letting the game come to him. He really showed a lot of growth on the defensive end as well and made good strides. Well done Brantley.

Let’s congratulate these players!
