UNDER 14 GIRLS

We are running this team on the same basis as the Under 10 and Under 12 Boys teams. The more girls that we can open the sport up to, the better, and this will allow us to teach important fundamentals and skills that the girls will need when they progress to the Under 16s National League team. It's another new training squad, and we'll be doing our best to promote the sport to as many girls as possible in schools. The successes in attracting girls to the Under 16s and Under 18s has given us the confidence and the evidence that there is a demand for girls basketball in the city, and we look forward to building this into a very successful girls basketball programme.

The squad will start in September 2007.
