Who We Are?
Our mission is to provide a sports platform to develop all level players to hustle with us and become a better person every single day.
about us
"HUSTLE is not just the way we play, but the lifestyle we live."
HUSTLE Basketball Academy is a seasonal basketball program serving the Taoyuan area, geared towards developing youth in the game of basketball and in life.
Our basketball academy is entirely unique because we not only concentrate on building a player’s basketball skills, but their character. We integrate character development and mental conditioning lessons into every aspect of the training. We want our players to understand that the mental aspect is the major part of being a top-notch basketball player. If you master your mind the skills will follow.
Our coaches are committed to providing the best knowledge, patient, and passion to all the students while pushing them to become the better person on & off the courts.
In basketball, “there are many ways to win the game”. There are countless styles of play, and many different methods can be utilized by coaches. The coaches with HUSTLE Basketball Academy will not only be the coach on the court, but also the mentors for the students off the court.
We focus on training and improving the skills of the individual student, which takes much more than just playing in basketball games. To master the sport, students need effective training programs for basketball skills, strength, and endurance training, not to mention the passion, persistence, patience, and commitment to practice and the mindset of a leader as our core values.
Our sessions are all about teaching, instilling, and developing the habits that allow all our student-athletes to grow as people, students, and basketball players; it’s about the involvement of great people providing quality instruction, motivation, mentoring, feedback and a supportive environment that affords all who participate the opportunity to reach their individual best in sport and in life.
By using our progression curriculum and focusing on the whole player, we teach your child the skills they need for both on and off the court to be a better individual. Our coaches will focus on respect, teamwork, and responsibility as we will start each day with a 'skill of the day', and progress into drills and games making for an unforgettable camp experience for our young athlete.
Our core values
"Commitment, Passion, Persistence, and Patience. "

Why HUSTLE Basketball Academy?
As an entrepreneur and someone who has high passion, patient, and commitment to everything I work on, I decided to create HUSTLE Basketball Academy to make it a remarkably great learning platform for all the individuals to HUSTLE and become a better person than they were with US.
We teach our players fundamentals, skills, athleticism, and mentality that will help them no matter what team & sports you play for. All the sessions tremendously have a high number of repetitions. The best way to learn is—see, hear, and do. In order to develop a new skill, our players must get thousands of repetitions and develop new muscle memory.
Our sessions will also find opportunities to help players build mentality and teach them about the mental aspects of the game. These include teaching them about leadership, playing through mistakes, toughness, and teamwork which leads them to learn life lessons, develop character, and become a better person.
