Why I built Buzz City Hoops.
I’ve spent 25+ years in leadership, across coaching, business, and social psychology, working with some of the biggest organisations in the world before turning that expertise toward youth sport. And I’ve watched the same story play out in youth sport more times than I can count:
A kid gets overlooked. Not because they’re not good enough because the system isn’t fair. Politics. Favouritism. Who your parents know.
And here’s what most people don’t realise: that moment doesn’t just cost a kid a season. It writes a story in their head about who they are. “I’m not good enough.” That story doesn’t stay on the court. It follows them into the classroom, the workplace, every room they walk into for the next 20 years.
I built Buzz City Hoops to break that cycle.
Merit based. Transparent. Every kid knows exactly what earns them a spot and every kid gets a fair shot at earning it.
Because when effort actually leads to outcome, kids learn something that no amount...
