Two of the Three Thames Valley Kings national league teams were on the road this past weekend in British Wheelchair Basketball National League with the second and third teams in action against the first and second teams from Aces on Saturday.
Kings 3rds team fought back from a 7-point half-time deficit against Aces II in the Division Three South clash to take the win by a single point, 36-35.
Sean Cullen was the game’s top scorer for the Kings with 16 points.
In the Division Two South game between Kings second team and the Aces first team, the Kings struggled to break the full-court press that the Aces applied and paid for it dearly as the Aces shot ahead with a commanding lead, although Kings performed excellently in the final quarter, the damage had already been done. The Aces picked up the win 57-29.
Up Next, Kings Juniors return to action in the first round of Junior League on Saturday (29th) against London Titans and Aces Juniors.
Kings, who were last season’s runners-up nationality, will be a much-changed team as over two-thirds of last year’s squad has now aged out of the Junior competition.
