England Basketball has formed a partnership with the Barclays Premier League to develop basketball clubs linked to Premier League Football Clubs through the Premier League 4 Sport programme (PL4S).

 

England Basketball are working with Premier League Football clubs to create a network of sustainable satellite basketball sessions that will be linked to accredited basketball hub clubs. 2011/12 was the first year of delivery within the PL4S programme and we are happy to report that the clubs experienced substantial increases in participation, which has lead to a expansion of the number Premier League clubs delivering basketball for 2012/13.

Blackburn Rovers

Bolton Wanderers

Manchester City

Newcastle Eagles

Stoke City

The delivery of the satellite and hub clubs will follow this model.
