We are delighted to report that having won the Midlands Title, Nottingham Junior Hoods u18 have been promoted to Under 18 Men Central Premier for the 2018/19 season.
This is the first time the Hoods Juniors have reached the highest tier at under-18 level, after just two years of existence and is a real testament to the depth and pool of talent that exists in Nottingham. They will lock horns with BBL basketball powerhouses such as Leicester Riders and Sheffield Sharks in what will be a huge step up for the team.
u18 Head Coach, Ben Stanley commented, “It’s fantastic news that Hoods u18 have made the Premier, it’s a tribute to all the hard work that the boys have put in throughout the year. They are a great group of lads and it would be fantastic to see those that are still here moving on and playing at the level that they should be in order to advance themselves.”
Junior Hoods u16 and u14 teams will continue their development in the regional leagues of a junior national league programme that now consists of 490 teams!
