The popularity of Basketball in Canada has
grown over the past 10 years. With the introduction of two NBA basketball
teams in 1994, Toronto & Vancouver, basketball has become a prominent
fixture in Canadian sporting culture. National studies have shown
increases in the number of students participating in basketball
at all levels. Canadians such as Steve Nash of the Phoenix Suns
('04-'05, '05-'06 NBA MVP), Samuel Dalembert of the 76'ers and Jamal
Magloire of the Dallas Mavericks, have paved the way for aspiring
basketball players across the country.
Internationally, Canada has responded to the
challenge of many basketball critics, by competing at a high level
on the world stage. We are also known to send many players to NCAA
Division 1 schools and other basketball institutions worldwide.
As a result of these positive examples, Canadian basketball has
positioned it self to reach higher heights.
Toronto, the primary factory for producing
basketball players in the country, is building a reputation that
is gradually being compared to famous basketball cities in the USA.
Many players developed their skills in the Toronto high school system
and have gone on to bright and promising careers. However, there
is still a void that is not being addressed in Toronto.
Basketball in Toronto has very few informative
outlets that regularly report on basketball from the street game
to the pros. There is no main body that represents the Toronto Basketball
lifestyle & community. As the popularity of basketball rises, so
will the demand for more information on current basketball events
and news in and around the city.
Tdot Hoopz will provide a solution to this
void by delivering up to date information and showcasing the abundance
of basketball talent in and around the city through our website.
