“…In interviews, Cain-ris cxpress their desire to play the way they like in clubs. It is important to note that for Cain-ris, streetball or the “street” is the most appropriate place for the expression of their hip-hop ball culture (Duret & Augustini, 1993; Vieille Marchiset, 1998; Vieille Marchiset & Vieille, 2006). Without coaches or strict rules as in institutional club basketball (Adamkiewicz, 1998; Bordes, 2000; Lefèvre, 1998), Cain-ris feel they are able to play more freely, as they see fit, reproducing all of the NBA and AND1 stars’ moves:There is a lot more dribbling in streetball, it’s more spectacular.…”

The nature of the game of basketball, which is to score more hoops than the opposing team while respecting a set of rules, has often been questionned. Young players have been developing new ways to play and think basketball ever since the advent of the American hip-hop basketball ("hiphop ball") culture in France in the noughties. However, this way of playing basketball is viewed negatively by club coaches, who are the guardians of institutional basketball. Through participant observation and the interviewing of five coaches and 32 players, this article seeks to measure the consequences of what may be seen as a cultural divide. Our findings show how coaches depreciate hip-hop ball culture and sometimes stigmatize players to reinforce their own legitimacy within institutional basketball. Also, our data illustrate the players' ability to shift from one basketball culture to the next in an attempt to gain recognition in institutional basketball.
