Support FIMBA GB Over 50 Men's Basketball at the FIMBA European Championships June - July 2022

After a rigorous selection process, the final FIMBA GB o50 Men's team has been selected to represent Great Britain at this summer's FIMBA European Championships in Malaga, Spain.

Led by a strong coaching / management team the team itself is also a very talented, hard working group not just on the court but off court as well. A lot of the players are still actively engaged with basketball along with other sports at grassroots level, with many of them coaching local youth teams, supporting them off the court as well. You may well even remember seeing them playing back in the 1980s,90s,2000s for teams like Birmingham Bullets, Bournemouth Dolphins, Derby Storm, Derby Bucks, Leicester Riders, Leicester Warriors, Solent Stars, Solihull Chiefs, Stoke Steelers, Swindon Sonics, Worcester Chiefs and even in Europe with Universidad Complutense & Calasancio Baloncestro (both Madrid, Spain) and S.I.M.E.Q & Alges e Dafundo (Portugal)

The total cost for the team is an estimated £20k, part of which has been covered by corporate partners to whom we are very grateful. However, there are still ongoing costs for training, physio equipment and travel expenses.

We thank you in advance for your support and assistance and hope, to do you proud in Malaga and come back with some silverware.
