Chairman's Note 2019
Welcome to GB Masters basketball in Manchester which will be 3rd year in a row in Manchester and our 24th year of running this tournament. We have grown from a 4 team men's event to over 60 teams from all over the globe competing, introducing the women's competition in 2007. We are exploring for 2020 to be in Nottingham and talks are already underway - watch this space for futher news.
We welcome returning teams that have come back year after year as well as new teams. We hope you will enjoy the weekend full of basketball as well as catching up with old friends and making new ones.
This will be my third tournament as Chairman having been involved on the Committee for the past 12 years as Membership and Officials Co-Ordinator. I am supported by Martin Shaw, Treasurer, Graham Murray, Fixtures Co-ordinator, Grace Jacca who will liaise with the Polly Camp officials, Maria Endacott-Heser as our Secretary and George our new recruit covering our social media, website and comms over the weekend, Matt Ellmore who is our Manchester Liaison Co-ordinator and Andy Green who is our Commercial and Marketing expert and will oversee our merchandise.
We are partnering up again in 2019 with the Polly Camp who will this year be running a table officials camp along side the referees camp.
Wishing you all the players, officials and supporters all the best over the weekend.
Many thanks
