2026 Winter Hawks In Training - Winter 2026

"Hawks in Training" (H.I.T.) is an exciting program designed by the Riverside Hawks staff, tailored specifically for boys and girls aged 4 to 9. This dynamic program offers more than just basketball instruction; it's a gateway to mastering the essentials of the game, where experienced coaches emphasize the fundamentals of basketball while fostering a spirit of teamwork and sportsmanship.

At H.I.T., we believe in nurturing young talents by providing a perfect blend of fun and learning. Our sessions span ten weeks, packed with engaging and age-appropriate activities, ensuring that each child gets a comprehensive introduction to the world of basketball. But it's not just about the sport; we're dedicated to helping our young athletes develop important life skills that will benefit them on and off the court.

As a token of our appreciation and to keep those wonderful memories alive, each participant receives special souvenirs, including a trophy, a jersey, and a bag. These keepsakes are more than just items; they're a celebration of the journey and progress each child makes in our program.

Join us at "Hawks in Training" and watch your child soar with confidence, skill, and a newfound love for basketball!
