    Club information

    We now have three men’s teams, for the first year ever.

    We're going from strength to strength, with Notts Varsity Wins 2016, 2017 an 2018 and a Men’s First Bucs cup champs 2017/18, Men’s 2nd 2016/17 champions of midlands 4A and Promotion to midlands 3A.

    Our Varsity fixture takes place in the motorpoint arena in front of a huge crowd, the atmosphere is amazing.

    We have a strong partnership and connection with Nottingham Hoods Basketball Club, and strong links to other smaller local league clubs around the city. We created our trent hoods national league side this past season, which enabled a link and strong bridge between trent and hoods.
