How does the Program work?

Hoopbus PE Takeovers consist of two parts: a workshop and an assembly.

The workshop component is for up to eighty students and is a rotational, station-based, hands-on approach to discovering the game. No prior skill or experience is required. Each station is modular, adjusted to age level, and focuses on one of the four key pillars: Gratitude, Teamwork, Self-Love and Discipline. The stations encourage movement, artistic and personal expression, confidence, and teamwork.

The assembly component is a performative and interactive show optimal for bringing energy and excitement to an entire school. Tell your teachers and students to bring their A-Game as they take on the challenge of beating the undefeated Team Hoopbus.

FAQs

Hoopbus offers the PE Takeover to schools at both a no-cost and paid model. Our no-cost model is a need-based impact program deeply engrained in our service mission and is powered by the support of generous donors and foundational grant-makers. Our paid model supports all program costs for up to five hours of programming at a rate of $2,500.
Our team selects on a need-based criteria evaluated by a Hoopbus programs coordinator. If a school is within our program’s key cities and can’t afford a paid model, we try our best to find a way to get there, though it sometimes takes a bit longer.
