Taya Hoops Academy × ACE Hoops
Elite training, professional mentorship, and a championship mindset — led by Canadian pro basketball player Taya Hanson.
ACE Hoops is proud to support the next chapter of our training programs with the launch of Taya Hoops Academy, led by Canadian professional basketball player Taya Hanson. As ACE Hoops continues to grow, Coach On is stepping back from day-to-day programs to focus on the long-term vision — passing the torch to Taya as she builds and leads her own academy, aligned with the values ACE Hoops was built on.
Elite Experience, Real Mentorship
Taya brings a rare combination of elite playing experience, leadership, and mentorship to the court. Her basketball journey includes:
- NCAA Division I experience with Oregon and Arizona State
- Nearly 10 years with Team Canada, including Senior National Team
- Professional play across Europe and Australia
- International medals, national awards, and leadership at every level
Beyond the résumé, Taya is deeply passionate about developing the whole athlete — not just skills, but confidence, discipline, creativity, and joy for the game.
Intentional, High-Quality Training
Skill Development
Footwork, shooting mechanics, defense, and decision-making — every rep has purpose.
Mentorship & Mindset
Resilient athletes with a “1% better” mentality, learning how discipline and freedom coexist.
Athleticism & Movement
How you move is how you play. Strong, functional, healthy athletes perform better and last longer.
Creativity & Joy
Basketball should be fun. Players express themselves, compete freely, and fall in love with the process.
Community & Leadership
A positive environment where athletes support one another, grow together, and lead with humility.
Built for the Next Generation
While Taya Hoops Academy operates independently, families can expect the same high standards, professionalism, and care ACE Hoops has always stood for — with Taya bringing her own voice, experience, and vision. All registrations, programming details, and updates are on her website.
