Sometimes the 'love of the game' isn't enough to do all those extra voluntary things so this means a lot.

The players shouldn't have to come on socials after an historic achievement and see negativity outweight their superb performance
Question for all the

Would it be helpful if I added how players names were pronounced phonetically on the player profiles on my website?
Mostly out of respect for my guy

From the outside looking in they forever seem to be doing the ‘right’ things for their ‘humans’ first, and then their humans as players second.

Dear

Please can we have the aggregate score on screen in 2nd legs?
Only having the game score is like having FGM and FTM on screen for a regular season game and making the viewer work out the points

This right here is literally why I do what I do. Sometimes we’re too busy looking at talent and potential to remember our players are humans who really care about this game, and have families and friends who really care about and feel part of their success

Summer Jam - done✅
10 teams in the 5-on-5 Clapham Common Cup, 24 players in the 1-on-1 King/Queen of the Trenches comp, and a few hundred spectators packing out the bleachers.
Perfect way to finish the summer, on the court that we built!
Summer 2022 has been epic.

named MVP of the Trophy Final, you can see what it means for guys to win at home, it’s more than just CV boosting when you play in front of friends and family alongside players you grew up with.
Thank you to
@LDNCityRoyals
for bringing Brits home!
I’m really at the point of the summer where I’ve transitioned from “ooh another signing” to “ffs I’ll add it to the 50+ I haven’t updated on the website yet” 😂
Anyone wanna help maintain a basketball database for free? No? Didn’t think so
Hatters have added US guard Bre Hampton-Bey, who averaged 8.1 points, 5.1 rebounds, 2.3 assists and 1.5 steals at Loyola Chicago last season.

Tough loss after an incredible run but please note the following
✅Already made history
✅Still a 🥉 to play for
✅This team still sticks together and plays for each other in adversity
✅This team refuses to let the score get out of hand regardless of momentum
We salute you 👏
I think it’s fair to say I do a lot for basketball, but I love the days that remind me how much basketball does for me.
First time shooting around outdoors since last summer. The love of the game, and joy of working on my skillset, are the same as when I started at 11yo…

Then going up against another legend in Rob, the league champions and a one point deficit in a win or go home game.
