The Hoop Vibe Partners with Progression Daily
We have a major announcement here at The Hoop Vibe.
Progression Daily is our official partner of middle school events. It all starts on Sunday, August 4 with our debut showcase event “The Future” in Clearwater at The Long Center. It will be the first stop of a series of showcase events with further team events in the works. Registration is now open, click here.
Progression Daily (Est. 2018) is Tampa’s No. 1 basketball player development. Led by former Division I coach and super successful high school coach and trainer Jordan Fair, prospects develop further under his training regiments. Fair has coached over 100 college players and has personally trained over 20 NBA and pro players. Learn more about Progression Daily by following them at @progression_daily.
Fair and Progression Daily came on board with The Hoop Vibe this season as a main sponsor of the 7th annual Sun Bash Tampa Bay. The conversations and the clear need for the two companies to help in the middle school space through events and media coverage sprung this to fruition.
“Joining Hoop Vibe provides the perfect partnership to take the middle school platform to the next level,” Progression Daily Founder/Trainer Jordan Fair said. “We will provide the ultimate combination of exposure and development to ensure the future of Florida basketball continues to progress. Our focus is development first and foremost but in doing so our camps will boost the overall exposure and preparedness for the high school of hoops. The future of Florida basketball starts here.”
Established in 2022, The Hoop Vibe has been an integral part of the high school space and we plan to continue to build and help as many hoopers as possible. Now with the middle school branch, we can do more and aid an even bigger pool of athletes through our platform.
The Hoop Vibe puts prospects in the best position possible through events, coverage, social media and daily conversations with college coaches.
“It is a natural fit to not only get into the middle school space here at The Hoop Vibe but also do it alongside one of the hardest working and knowledgable coaches and trainers in Jordan Fair,” Hoop Vibe founder/scouting coordinator Jake Perper said. “We are working intensively to enhance our product for all age groups and this middle school addition will only further our reach and help hard-working prospects. This is a super exiciting addition to our company and we will do whatever we need to make it worth athletes time to attend our events.”
Our operations director Barry Bartlett will handle the role of middle school director. We are thrilled about his newly minted position. His knowledge in the basketball space in terms of recruiting and event operations are top-notch. Bartlett has a unique touch with parents and coaches and it makes The Hoop Vibe events stand out among the rest.
“I’m very excited about the partnership between The Hoop Vibe and Progression Daily. Both brands pride themselves on providing a top-shelf basketball environment,” Middle School Director Barry Bartlett said. “The Hoop Vibe has established itself as a premier high school basketball all-inclusive service. We produce some of the best individual and team showcases, coupled with providing exposure to hoopers at all levels and recruiting insights to college coaches.
…The opportunity to bring that same experience and approach to the middle school environment is a logical next step in the growth of The Hoop Vibe business. As they say, game recognizes game. We respect what Jordan has done with Progression Daily. His approach to training has proven results and his skill development methods are unmatched.”
