Hoops & Code
This week the game gets smarter. Scholars step onto the court and into the data — learning that the best players in the world are not just athletic. They are analytical. And so are the people who build careers around the sport.
What Makes This Track Special
Real on-court instruction from a professional basketball instructor
Data and analytics applied to real game scenarios
Math that actually lives inside the sport
Industry professionals who work at the intersection of sports and technology
Highlight content created by the scholars themselves
What Scholars Experience
Hoops & Code is two things happening at the same time — and that is exactly the point. On the court, scholars receive real basketball instruction from a professional coach. In the classroom, they use the sport as a lens for some of the most powerful math concepts they will encounter — statistics, percentages, probability, and data analysis.
These are not separate experiences. They are the same experience from two angles. The scholar who calculates a shooting percentage in the morning is the same scholar draining free throws in the afternoon — and they understand both things more deeply because of each other.
For scholars who want to be in the data room instead of on the court — there is a place for them too. The game needs analysts, strategists, and technologists just as much as it needs players.
What They Build
ON-COURT SKILLS
Real basketball instruction from a professional coach. Fundamentals, strategy, and game knowledge built over the week.
DATA THINKING
Scholars apply math to real sports scenarios — and leave understanding how data shapes decisions at every level of the game.
A NEW WAY TO SEE THE SPORT
Whether they love playing or watching, scholars leave Hoops & Code seeing basketball — and technology — differently.
Academics Through Hoops
Every morning scholars engage in a math block and a reading block connected to the world of basketball. They calculate shooting percentages, analyze scoring data, and explore probability through the lens of the game they love. They write, reflect, and build the analytical vocabulary that real sports professionals use every day. The morning and the afternoon are not two separate things at C3 — they are one continuous experience.
