Basketball Wales 3x3 Summer Tour

This summer, Basketball Wales completed an outdoor tour of Wales to showcase what 3x3 basketball has to offer. 

When the tour landed in Tonyrefail, our Tigers jumped at the chance to play competitive basketball once again.

Four teams of Tigers players entered:

U14s

The Hot Shots (Isabelle, Abi, Maizie and Anya) 

The Streak (Kori, Logan, Mackenzie and James)

U16 Tigers (Mcauly, Iestyn, Cameron and Ieuan)

Seniors (James, Jake, Jacob and Rhys)

All teams played with passion and energy after a very long break from competitive basketball due to Covid-19.

Here are some photos of the day...

Thinking of buying a basketball for your child ?

It is important that the ball you buy is appropriate to their age as this will improve their handling and shooting skills.

• Ages 5 - 8     = Size 4
• Ages 9 - 11   = Size 5
• Ages 12 - 13  = Size 6 * (girls use the size 6 basketball from age 12 to adult)
• Ages 14+      = Size 7

As you are aware, at Tigers we made the decision to bring this year's training to a close this weekend.

Basketball Wales announced last night that in support of the nation's efforts to reduce transmission of the Covid-19 infection they would suspend all basketball (excluding elite) from Monday 14th December. This will be reviewed on 7th January 2021.
