Our Story
Chasing Hoops was born in the quiet tension between calling and comfort , between what was and what God said could be.
For years, our founder Giovanni Washington chased what the world called success. 9-to-5 jobs. Status. Temporary pleasure. But deep down, he knew something was missing. The grind was loud, but God’s whisper was louder.
Basketball had always been more than a game, it was therapy, expression, and connection. One day, while shooting alone in his backyard, God dropped a phrase in his spirit:
“Chasing Hoops.”
It wasn’t a brand idea. It was an assignment.
At first, it sat dormant, a seed waiting for pressure. But as life stripped away distractions and old identities, that seed began to grow. God made it clear: the same discipline that builds skill can build faith. The same court that tests endurance can shape character.
Chasing Hoops became the collision of faith and discipline, proof that both can thrive together.
What We Stand For
We exist to change lives and reshape how the world sees God through basketball and discipline.
When someone wears Chasing Hoops, they’re not just repping a logo, they’re repping Kingdom excellence.
Every piece we design, every post we share, every workout we show, it’s all about faith in action.
Because following Jesus isn’t a weekend thing, it’s a lifestyle.
We’re here to prove that authentic faith and relentless work ethic can coexist.
That excellence is worship.
That how you play is how you live.
What Makes Us Different
Most people chase wins.
We chase growth.
While others focus on results, we focus on the process, the discipline, the patience, and the faith it takes to show up when no one’s watching.
Our faith isn’t convenient. It’s not performance. It’s devotion.
We believe success isn’t defined by trophies but by obedience, consistency, and stewardship.
Every rep, every prayer, every post is a testimony.
We don’t just talk faith, we live it.
Faith in Motion
Chasing Hoops is a daily walk, not a campaign.
You’ll see it in our workouts, our quiet reading sessions, our team prayers, and our community highlights that celebrate other hoopers living Kingdom discipline.
Our goal isn’t fame. It’s impact.
Every piece of content is led by the Holy Spirit, every move anchored in purpose.
If someone lands on our page, we don’t want them to just read about faith, we want them to feel it.
The Mission
To build a culture of authentic, disciplined believers who live what they preach, on and off the court.
To raise a generation of athletes, creatives, and dreamers who reflect God through their grind.
This is bigger than basketball.
This is about Kingdom discipline.
This is faith in motion.
This is Chasing Hoops.
