We are delighted to present the Scotland squads and coaches for the upcoming British Wheelchair Basketball Kukri National Junior Championships.
The championships are taking place on August 5th and 6th, at the University of Worcester Arena. This much-awaited competition serves as a crucial platform for young talent in the U14s and U18s age categories, bringing together the finest players from regional associations, Home Nations, and clubs.
The U14s competition will see teams participate in the 4v4 format. To encourage maximum participation, there will be no classification system in place. This means all teams, regardless of their level, are welcome to showcase their skills at the event. The U18s category will see representation from five teams hailing from three regional hubs across England, Scotland, and Wales.
