“I will not allow my little sisters to defeat me,” Ebony is always heard saying.
Little sisters for a fact both teams are from the same Vision Basketball Family. Hoops Angels is like a feeder for Vision Angels although both play in the same division.
Newer young academic female players in the Vision Basketball Program are placed in Hoops Angels. Therefore the “Hoops babies,” as they are called in the program, always look up to their more experience sisters. Their dream is to play under the banner Vision Angels.
But this season things are starting to turn around. Hoops Angels looks more compose and organized during games then their older ‘sisters.’
This has given confidence to the younger team that they can be victorious if they ever meet in the league.
Hoops Angels confidence increased when they defeated D-Rockas but Vision Angels lost to the same team.
