GB Over 65’s September and October Training Sessions
Another fantastic turnout for our October session!
A group of as many as 50 men arrived at Hinchinbrook School in Huntingdon for the over 40/45 trials for FIMBA GB. The trials were to select going forward a squad of about 16/18. Some intense drills and games were held and every one knew they had been balling.
Last weekend saw the O60 Men’s head up to Scotland for their training session in Dalkeith, just South of Edinburgh. Always keen to travel around the country to hold training sessions this was the second time they have visited Dalkeith, and it didn’t disappoint.
FIMBA GB Masters CIC is delighted to announce the appointment of Richie Rudd as Head Coach, where he will oversee the entire coaching staff and lead the organisation’s coaching development.
