'It’s kind of forgotten about': Tiffany Hayes' Plan to Bring Elite Basketball to South Atlanta
Hayes' new gym, Hoop Nation, is one of a kind in College Park

The gym is located on the south side of Atlanta in College Park, mere minutes from the Dream’s new game facility, Gateway Center Arena. It’s a part of the city that doesn’t have many gyms or resources to offer young basketball players, which is part of the reason Hayes wanted to make the investment.

“North Atlanta has all these great, elite gyms that people can go to,” Hayes said. “The south side doesn’t really have that, so I want to kind of change Hoop Nation into one of those gyms where everyone knows about it and everyone loves coming to that gym because it has such elite status and great players come there and they can get good training, get good recovery, get good runs, all that type of stuff.

“... This area doesn’t really have a lot down here because it’s kind of forgotten about.”

Another star on the board for a Uconn hoops player. I know that there are other athletes who speak out for changes but it seems to me that the the ladies from Uconn are always among the leaders in the pack and, just as important, are able to articulate their thoughts. Can we please give some credit to our University for being at least partially responsible for this.
