+40 preparing for World Cup


Leicester was the venue for the recent FIMBA GB +40 Men as they continue preparations for the World Cup in Croatia next month.

FIMBA GB are delighted to announce the first of many regional camps, with FIMBA GB Scotland starting in Aberdeen.

The two teams met up in Sheffield for a combined combined training camp, aimed to enhance the skills and tactical understanding of both the +60 and +65 GB Men’s basketball teams.

Following this weekend’s training camp, the European Champions, FIMBA GB +70 Men, have confirmed their entry into the World Championships in Switzerland.

The third training session of 2025 for the FIMBA GB +50 Women was created for the squad to firm up on the offensive and defensive strategies and put them to the test against a team of younger players based in Leicester.

The FIMBA GB +50 Men’s squad joined up again as guests of the Abingdon Eagles at the weekend for another group session in preparation for the coming World Cup in April and World Championships in June.

Following final selections in January, the FIMBA GB +40 Women had their first team camp at the weekend as well as taking on a mix players from the various Loughborough BUCS teams.

The FIMBA GB +50 Women decided to organise 2 training weekends in January to ensure that the new year got off to a flying start.

With the final two places yet to be decided for the FIMBA GB +60’s women’s team, a group consisting of players who had expressed an interest for selection and players already selected met for a training weekend in Leicester on the weekend of 25th & 26th January.

After a less-than-stellar showing at the European Championships, Coach Williams decided it was time for a major shakeup.
