HOOPS 4 HEALTH
Cheshire Phoenix are working with schools across the North West to help promote a healthy lifestyle through the Hoops4Health Programme.
The aim of Hoops4Health is for our professional basketball players to act as role models to deliver the programme using basketball to communicate to primary school children the importance of a healthy lifestyle.
PROGRAMME STRUCTURE
Stage 1 – Roadshow: The Hoops4Health Roadshow incorporates three stations: Healthy Eating, Anti Smoking / Vaping and basketball skills delivered by the Cheshire Phoenix Basketball professional players. Each child taking part in the Roadshow receives a free ticket to one of our home games at the Ellesmere Port Sports Village.
Stage 2 – Coaching: Each school receives basketball coaching delivered by one of our community coaches.
Stage 3 – Tournament: The schools are invited to participate in a tournament prior to a pro game with the semi-final taking place at half time of the pro game. All players taking part in the tournament receive a free ticket to the pro game.
Stage 4 – Tournament Final: The winning team from each tournament will be invited back to a final tournament to determine the overall Hoops4Health Tournament winner.
