Kayleigh Fennell, Head Coach at Basingstoke Wolverines said: "I could not be prouder of these athletes. We entered 3 new divisions this season where we placed 1st, 2nd and 3rd and had a high influx of brand new athletes that could not of made us prouder. These results reflect what a fantastically hard working and competitive club we have and this stems down to the athletes work ethic and the amazing job our volunteers and coaches do"
The programme and squads are getting stronger and larger with new athletes signing up for our development squad Shadowcats which enables athletes to gain and learn new skills and gain confidence before deciding whether to join a competitive squad.
