Whiteley Warriors Basketball CIC

Have Courage,

Be Brave,

Be Brilliant

We’re a community interest company supporting Junior and Senior local league Basketball club Est 2021 with over 250 players

We have sessions for both experienced ballers and people new to Basketball. We have grown to over 500 members, and have a great family feel to the club. Many of our members hadn’t played Team Basketball before joining us, and now after a year, we have a local league for Junior & Senior players.

We have an excellent team of coaches and volunteers, who have a massive passion for Basketball.

My little one loved the experience of the trials. He said, "I really wanted to get on the team so I fought for it and gave my very best". It's lovely to see a 9-year-old boy discovering his inner strength deep inside in such an experience and chasing his goals! A big thank you to all the coaches who are caring, and endlessly patient and who feed the passion for the game into our children!

Testimonials

Absolutely brilliant squad. My daughter is in the Little Warriors team and she absolutely loves it. She’s really come out of her shell and it’s given her a chance to do what she loves to do. She’s made new friends and gained so much self-confidence from being there. She can’t wait to get back on the court every weekend. I’m thankful for all that Gareth has done for the kids and bringing basketball back to the area and giving off such positive vibes to all the kids that attend!
