The women's amateur basketball clinic program 'TIP OFF Season 2', operated by Bucheon Hana Bank's women's basketball team, has officially begun.

On the 11th, the Hana Bank women's basketball team announced that it held an orientation for participants of 'TIP OFF Season 2' at Clubhouse Cheongna Sports Center in Cheongna, Incheon, on the 10th. During the orientation held on the 10th, the selected participants gathered to share the program's purpose and future schedule, followed by a club house tour, basic training, mini-games, and the official start of the program.

According to Hana Bank's team, 'TIP OFF' is an amateur clinic program exclusive to the Hana Bank women's basketball team, designed to allow women who love basketball to experience systematic training in a professional club's specialized environment.

Previously, 'TIP OFF Season 1', first held in 2025, ran for about five months targeting female university students. Under the guidance of professional coaches, participants learned fundamentals and team tactics and took part in player mentoring programs. Notably, after the program ended, participants formed a single team called 'TIP OFF' to compete in amateur tournaments, achieving third place in their debut appearance and growing into a self-driven women's basketball community.

Building on this positive reception, 'TIP OFF Season 2' was organized with a selection process targeting female university students with at least six months of basketball experience, ultimately selecting 12 participants. This season will run for approximately three months until October.

Participants will progressively complete training in individual fundamentals, position-specific skills, and team tactics under the coaching of professional instructors. Additionally, special programs featuring Hana Bank women's basketball team players will be arranged during the schedule, offering opportunities to share practical know-how and experiences from professional athletes.

A representative of the Hana Bank women's basketball team stated, "Seeing participants continue to enjoy basketball and even compete in actual tournaments after the previous season ended allowed us to confirm the true meaning of this program." They added, "We will continue to contribute to expanding the base of women's basketball and fostering a healthy sports culture by actively utilizing the infrastructure and coaching expertise available to our professional club."
