Past and Present

Building Community Through Basketball

Founded by Claire Harper-Black in July 2021, Norfolk Hoopstars is a community interest company dedicated to increase basketball participation across Norfolk for individuals of all ages and skill levels.

Since the club founded in 2021, we have experienced remarkable growth, significantly enhancing basketball participation throughout Norfolk in alignment with our club's mission statement. Starting with sessions in a single location, we have expanded our reach to offer an impressive 48-50 weekly sessions, engaging approximately 600 participants each week.

From Passion to Performance

At Norfolk Hoopstars, we pride ourselves on offering a talent pathway for basketball players who aspire to play at a higher level. Our programme begins at the grassroots level with local community hubs, then progresses to HBL and NYBL, and eventually provides opportunities to play in the Junior National League (NBL) and Norfolk Youth League.
