In this inspiring episode of The Art of Rebounding, host Harold “Lefty” Williams welcomes Nico Naismith, co-founder of The HoopBus — a global movement using basketball to unite, inspire, and empower communities around the world.From growing up in France and learning English through pickup games to visiting more than 15,000 basketball courts worldwide, Nico shares how his love for the game became a mission to connect cultures. What started as a Venice Beach streetball league turned into a rolling revolution — a 40-foot bus converted into a traveling basketball court, bringing joy, mentorship, and competition to people everywhere.Nico and Lefty dive into stories of resilience, including the Kobe Bryant tribute tour, building courts across the world, and growing The HoopBus into a fleet of nine buses across multiple continents. Together, they explore themes of faith, perseverance, creativity, and community, showing how basketball can be more than a sport — it can be a bridge between people.This episode celebrates vision, purpose, and the power of following your calling — even when the road gets rough (or covered in snow).Connect with Nico:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/organicko/Website: https://www.hoopbus.com/Connect with Harold "Lefty" Williams: The Art of Rebounding Book: https://www.theartofrebounding.com/landingDare2Dream Website: https://dare2dream.xyz/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/theartofrebounding/https://www.instagram.com/leftywilliams42/X: https://x.com/leftywilliams42/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/leftywilliams42/Executive ProducersHarold “Lefty” WilliamsShyneefa WilliamsElisha “EJ” WilliamsWizKidFilms, Inc Production  Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
