Video: Midnight Madness Leeds Qualifier
I know people who have spoken to me about Midnight Madness Leeds, know that there is only ever one person in the Under 18’s I talk about and that is Mark ‘The Best Kept Secret’ Rangeley. His performance was ridiculously dominant and I don’t think we saw many performances quite like it over the Summer Midnight Madness tour. I’m not gonna talk about it too much as there is a video dropping soon with his full reel from the event, all I will say is that once he gets some decent coaching (never played National League before) watch out. Other shout outs go to Joseph Baugh for a DISGUSTING putback to finish off the Under 18’s, Ben Cepulis who definitely played very nice and Mostapha Alfaki who didn’t stop scoring.
The Under 23’s were rammed full of talent. Point guard Carl Pearson and Jamell Anderson were at the forefront of that pool, teaming up to hold court for a long time putting on a show for spectators-Carl Pearson bringing his smooth handle and passing, and Jamell his damn hot mid-range game and dunking shoes. Other mentions go to PG Sam (blonde guy, if anyone has a surname let me know) who came out hard and wasn’t intimidated by the likes of Pearson, bangin’ 3s and driving to the hole, and Dominic (?) an athletic big man who was blocking shots n dunking.
Anyway, check out the video and be sure to drop a comment!
Do you like our work?
We have a tiny favour to ask. In 2018 we set out to make Hoopsfix sustainable by building our relationship directly with our readers. Up until now, Hoopsfix has been creating editorials, videos and podcasts to provide sorely missing coverage of the British game and its distinct culture and community.
We have funded Hoopsfix with our freelance work creating basketball media, but sadly that means not only does it fall behind our client’s priorities, but some of those clients are the same organisations we need to report objectively on putting us in a conflicted position.
We want to devote more time to our mission of helping British basketball reach its potential, and produce even more content for the basketball community by making Hoopsfix a sustainable 100% independent business funded directly by our readers through Patreon.
If everyone who enjoys our content chose to support us, our future would be much more secure. For as little as $3 per month, you can support Hoopsfix – and it only takes a minute.
We are tremendously honoured and humbled to have a community of people who value what we do, and we look forward to being at the forefront of the British game as it continues to evolve.
