Job Overview (QCK) came to fruition in January 2024 to build out opportunities for Greater Cincinnati Youth (10-18) to find safe and influential out of school time activities, to avail under-served youth a cooperative co-ed team sport experience not predicated on the final score, to contribute to holistic healthy development with social emotional learning lessons, and to build travel opportunities with a focus on cultural exchange and service. This is all steeped in the hook of playing a new game—(similar to basketball without dribbling)! We have several sites for the 2026-2027 school year in collaboration with Cincinnati Public Schools, Saturday Hoops, Cincinnati Recreation Commission, and need coaches to help propel our impact!
