The NEBB Knights will hold introductory training sessions and preliminary trials for U16/18 players on Sunday, 8th December in Mullagh Sports Hall
The Knights teams are the regional teams of the North East Area Board and are composed of players from clubs throughout Cavan, Meath, Monaghan, Louth and Streete. The coaches/managers are all volunteers from the North East clubs. For the past number of years the U16 and U18 teams have been offering players and coaches the opportunity to experience basketball at an international European level, and to grow and develop their own skills in the process as well as enjoying the social aspect of getting to know others throughout the region. The teams are open to all eligible North East players. Hopefully next summer the teams will be travelling again to the Eurobasket tournament in Lloret de Mar, Spain in the first week in July.

Boys training will take place in the morning of Sunday 8th Dec with girls in the afternoon – exact times to be confirmed Further training and team trials for the U16s/18s will take place at the end of December. The U14 teams focus on developing player skills by providing regular regional training sessions as well as the opportunity to play challenge games with other regional development squads. This year it is hoped there will be a national inter regional event – training and trials for the U14 squads will begin January 2020. COACHES/MANAGERS: The number of teams selected will depend on having enough coaches/managers prepared to take on the roles.
