OUR MISSION

At Hastings HAVOC, we believe in the power of the game to challenge and inspire young athletes. Our mission is to provide a competitive basketball experience rooted in supportive learning, personal growth, and teamwork.

We are dedicated to fostering an environment where players of all skill levels feel safe to push themselves to improve. Through local tournaments only, we prioritize sportsmanship and community connection over the pressures of excessive travel. This allows athletes to compete at a high level while maintaining a balanced lifestyle.

Our program is priced with working families in mind. On average, we are 50% of the cost of other Westchester-based competitive programs.*

HAVOC is led by experienced educators who understand how to teach, motivate, and mentor young people. We emphasize fundamentals, teamwork, and resilience, helping athletes develop confidence on and off the court.

In HAVOC, success isn’t measured by wins and losses—it’s about progress, effort, and a love for the game. We believe that when young athletes challenge themselves in a positive, structured environment, they build skills that last a lifetime.
