Officiating

Register your interest for training courses - there is a new online register for all those wishing to attend Floor and/or Table Officials courses. The register can be found here: http://slba.org.uk/officials/ along with further details for each course. It is hoped to hold several courses over the summer in and around the Glasgow area but we need participants and this can only come from member clubs! Please pass this information around your Club members and encourage everyone to register and take part in one of the courses.

Masters

British Masters Basketball Tournament 2008

Congratulations to Glasgow over 50's men and over 35's women on reaching their respective finals at the British Masters Basketball Tournament this past weekend. Unfortunately both teams came up against strong opposition in the finals and both teams lost. The men loosing to Louisiana, and the women to Sheffield Hatters. But well done to both teams for a great effort.

The over 40's men had a much harder task than last year, having been moved up to the A section. But they performed well despite a shortage of players to win their first game on Saturday and give finalists Manchester a hard game before loosing to them on Sunday morning. Unfortunately they lost their other 2 games.

Thanks go to John Campbell and Maureen McNeil for organising the teams, and to all the players who took part over the weekend.
