BUCS Premier Recap Week 4
Both London South Bank and Brunel kept their perfect records intact in the Premier South yesterday, beating Middlesex and London Met respectively. LSBU led from the opening tip to the final buzzer, and despite Middlesex reducing the deficit to 4 at one point, they just didn’t have enough firepower to overcome last year’s third place team. Brunel cruised throughout, led by former England Under-18 Louis Sayers’ 24 points, London Met are left still searching for their first win of the season.
In the North, Durham remain undefeated after dispatching of Edinburgh, whilst Worcester took care of Leeds Met and Northumbria got past Glasgow.

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.
