Wyoming Premier Hoops
Wyoming Premier Program Story
Wyoming Premier Hoops was founded in Riverton on April 30, 2024 to create a stronger competitive basketball program for communities across Wyoming. What began as one travel team has grown into a boys and girls organization built around development, competition, accountability, strong team culture and pride in representing the state.
How It Started
A Home For Wyoming Basketball
The program was created to give Riverton and other Wyoming communities a stronger travel-basketball structure, consistent development, meaningful competition and a unified identity beyond the school season.
Why Wyoming Premier Hoops Was Built
Wyoming basketball programs face real challenges created by distance, smaller communities and limited travel options. Wyoming Premier Hoops was built to create a more organized route to consistent competition beyond the local schedule.
The first mission was simple: build a serious team environment, establish clear standards and compete against opponents outside the program’s normal regional schedule.
The long-term mission is bigger: strengthen basketball culture in central Wyoming, build sustainable boys and girls divisions and establish a program known for preparation, toughness and professionalism.
Championship History
The Pack Learned To Win Early
Championship results are not the entire mission, but they are evidence of preparation, togetherness and the competitive standard the program has worked to establish.
GTE Summer Slam Mountain West Champions
In the program’s first summer, Wyoming Premier Hoops went 4–0 at the GTE USA Summer Slam Mountain West Tournament and defeated the Milford Legends 46–37 in the championship game.
The title established the program’s competitive identity immediately and proved that a newly formed Wyoming team could travel, adapt and win against quality opposition.
Hot Summer Nights 3-on-3 Champions
Wyoming Premier Hoops added a second tournament title when the 17U Select group captured the 2025 Shoshoni Hot Summer Nights 3-on-3 championship.
The local title added another chapter to the program’s history and showed that the competitive standard carried from full-court travel basketball into a fast, physical half-court format.
