Our History

Our Home Court

Our Mission

In its current form we were established in 2012. Starting with one senior team in the NWBA league we quickly grew to two senior teams; Warriors and Raiders. We now have U12, U14, U16, U18 and Seniors. Several players have represented Wales and some have travelled abroad to play basketball in the USA College Leagues.

Our Home Court

All training currently takes place at Wrexham University's Leisure Centre on their Plas Coch Campus.

Our different age groups train from 6pm to 10pm on Mondays.

Frequently Asked Questions

Please reach us at info@wrexhambasketball.com if you cannot find an answer to your question.

How good do I need to be?

Obviously as a sports club we would like to win medals but we're also keen to get people bouncing and shooting so our open sessions are for all abilities. Enthusiasm and respect are the key. If you're worried about joining an established group just pop down and say hello. Still worried? Things relax a bit post season, May to end of August, so if you want to get balling without the pressure that could be best time to pop in.

What should I wear?

We'll provide coloured bibs for games. General sports kit is fine with good indoor sports shoes. We recommend investing in proper basketball boots as they give better support around the ankle and a better desgined for the twisting motions associated with movement in basketball. We have some merchandise that can can be ordered direct from Macron but may be worth asking first as every few years we have to change kit style.

Can girls play?

Of course! The NWBA youth league runs mixed teams so if you're fed up of the restricted zones in netball or just fancy building up your sports portfolio then come along. We have several girls in the youth club and did run women's sessions a few years ago but unfortunately the numbers made it unsustainable to run as a single sex session.

What's the age range?

School Years 5 to 9 Monday 6-7pm

School Years 9 to 11 7 to 8pm

School/College 11 to 12 7 to 8pm

Seniors (18+) 8 to 10pm - check no home games on WE ARE CURRENTLY TAKING NO NEW PLAYERS FOR SENIOR SESSIONS

How much are sessions?

All our coaches are volunteers, which helps to keep your cost low. At the moment youth sessions are £4 and £10 register cost if playing. Seniors £5 sessions and £20 one off register cost.

Any profit goes into maintenance of equipment, supporting our end of season celebration and club costs.

Players and staff need to register with Basketball Wales and to play in the NWBA leagues players will be registered with the NWBA as part of a club registration. It would be great if parenst/supporters would also regsiter with Basketball Wales.

How do I get into the team?

Firstly, attend training sessions. Secondly, if you have sufficient ability and there's space in the current season we may ask you to play immediately. However, some of our teams may be full and so you may have to be patient for the next season.

Does the club take images/video

As part of Basketball Wales, NWBA and club registration we ask for permissions to be able to use images for publicity on social media and in the papers.

I'm a parent. Can I stay and watch?

Parents/guardians are welcome to sit at the sides etc during training but please respect sessions. We also ask that no images are taken without prior permission.

Wrexham's too far for me to travel, where's my nearest team?

Check out the NWBA website and click on the clubs page. You can also look on England Basketball's website.
