Minihoops targets the 7-11 year age group and is for those children who are wishing to progress into the next stage of learning with the introduction of more specific drills, concepts and basic rules of basketball. Gold Coast Regional Basketball Association Issue 3, September 2010 Aussie Hoops and Minihoops registrations are now being taken for programs being run every Saturday 9am ~ 10am from the 9th October – 4th December.
