UNDER 12s

 

South Wales Basketball Association Under 12s Cup - Round 1

SUNDAY, 10th September 2023

LEADONITES BASKETBALL Vs TONYREFAIL TIGERS 

Our Under 12s have been drawn at home in their knock-out cup debut.

 

This match is in early September, so we need to get all eligible players registered with Basketball Wales as soon as possible. To do this we need £10.00 paid to the club’s bank account and the return of a club membership form for each player who will be in school year 7, and younger, from September 2023. These two things are essential for us to be able to get your child registered in time to play.

 

NOTE: All players playing in the Wyre Forest Basketball League at Stourport-on-Severn will also need a Basketball Wales registration to be able to play in that competition.
