On December 1st, 2024, the home of the Abingdon Eagles in Oxford became home of the FIMBA GB M50 and M55 teams as they held their final training session before squad selection for the highly anticipated 2025 FIMBA World Championships and 2025 Masters World Cup.
Last weekend saw the +60 and +65 women’s squad meet in Carterton, Oxfordshire for a two day training weekend.
The FIMBA GB +55 Men’s squad has started to take shape with some old(er) faces returning and the addition of some new ones are still to be decided. Seven of the twelve slots have been decided and the competition of the remaining places is hotting up.
The +55 Women had their penultimate pre-selection training weekend on 9/10th November, kindly hosted by RAF Cranwell.
The first training weekend of the new campaign which took place in Leicester was designed with an emphasis on running through our offensive plays. This session acted as an introduction to our strategies for new players as well as a refresher for our returning players.
The FIMBA GB +40 Women had their first weekend camp since the squad was announced last month.
The +35, 40 and 45 Men were back on court for their second group session.
The +50 and +55 Men’s teams were back in Nottingham this week, turning back the clock with some impressive training sessions.
Brighton hosted the first joint FIMBA GB +35 & +40 Men’s squads for a one day introductory camp.
The combined +50/55 Men came together in the Oxfordshire countryside to begin the preparations for their journey to World Championships in Switzerland, 2025.
