The value structure in our society is changing at a very
rapid rate. We are influenced daily by messages that communicate individualism
above team, selfishness over charity, disrespect over honor and personal
prosperity over dignity and common sense.
Athletics are an important aspect of this changing American culture,
and this dimension of our society also continues to erode. Many children
and young adults are involved in competition, yet we do not see this
involvement shaping our youth in a positive and productive way. This
time of enormous challenge can also be a time for significant opportunity
in preparing our youth to face the changing values they encounter daily.
Therefore, it is the chief aim of Higher Hoops to promote, educate, model
and mentor understandings and behaviors that will enable our participants
to choose wise, charitable paths as they contribute to society.
