After nearly two years away from our TBL we are so excited to announce the return to our League.

We have 6 teams registered into our League this year with plenty of opportunities for new players to join a team. We are happy to announce new teams Bristol Butterflyers and Frome Falcons. We hope all new and existing players are looking foward to playing in our League for the upcoming season.

TBL 21/22 season is just under 6weeks away. Our pre-season begins on the 25th of August 2021. The TBL regular season will then follow on the 13th of September 2021.

Don’t forget! Our annual All-star event is also returning for one night only on the 2nd of February from 7-10pm! This year we will introduce our new Vince Marriott Memorial Award in memory of our founder and coach Vince Marriott.

Are you playing in the TBL this year?

Have you completed your registration?

Register now before you play!

We are now well underway with our Men’s scrimmage and practice sessions! We have seen a great turnout and it’s been fantastic to see both new and old faces at the club.

We are approaching exciting times as we plan for a return to our TBL (central venue League) On August the 25th.

The full schedule will be out this weekend for all players to see. The League will include an extended pre-season, regular season and playoffs. Let’s not forget about our All-star event 2022. This will be our 3rd All-star event which will now feature our new Vince Marriottt award in memory of the Club’s founder and coach Vince marriott!

The award will be given to a young player that shows commitment, a great attitude, teamwork and potential. There will be a prise which will go towards helping the individual in their basketball development.

We have also hit the ground running with our new Junior Basketball programme. We can gladly say the 5week trail has been a success and will look to return in September.

If you signed up during the trial period you will have early access and the first opportunity to sign-up for the return in September.

Thanks for your continued support

On the 10th of April after a long battle our Founder, coach and friend Vince Marriott(Vin) sadly passed away.

Vince had a huge impact on so many of us. He was always there to provide us with support and guidance and did it so selflessly.

Vince also had a great impact across the whole basketball community including his work in refereeing, coaching and development.

He put so much of his time and efforts into basketball and developing young athletes.

He has led and helped in the development of Junior programmes here at Trowbridge and in Bristol.

Vince founded our Central Venue League in 2014 which then formally become the TBL in 2017.

Vince also was involved with Bristol Flyers and most recently an assistance coach for under 14s national League side .

He will always be remembered at our club as the remarkable man that provided us with a club that all can attend to play the sport we all love.

In the coming weeks our committee will be discussing options where we will honour Vince anually. We will also be discussing the options to run a charity event to raise money for kidney research uk.

We have teamed up with team PH. Team PH is a community made of car enthusiasts. We are all about helping out our local communities. If you are a car enthusiast and what to add your car to the ever growing crew why not join them.

Join them now!

Sunday scrimmage sessions are our most popular men’s session and the session is ideal for new and existing members of the club.

Sunday scrimmage – 27th of Septmeber 5-6.30PM

Update on all club activity 28.07.20

We have some great news! Our NGB has announced a return to indoor basketball from 3rd of August. However all our Basketball sessions remain closed for now whilst we work with the school to agree on a return date. We will look to restart our sessions after the school summer holidays in September.

We encourage you to continue to make use of your outdoor court. 

We stay hopeful to return as soon as possible in the meantime we hope you all stay safe and healthy.

This was due to great overall effort from our players. It was also great to give some of our younger members the opportunity to play at a different level. Special well done to Joel Rooprai, Dion Smith and Elias Marton-Browne. It was great to see the confidence and attitude you displayed.
