Video: Savannah Wilkinson Beats Ireland at the Buzzer!

By Sam Neter on April 19, 2014

Check out England Under-16 Savannah Wilkinson coming up clutch against Ireland last week in Leeds.

With the scores tied at 55 and 3.2 seconds left, the inbounds pass went awry, and bounced off the backboard landing in the hands of Savannah Wilkinson who knocked down the 12 foot jumpshot!

Ireland didn’t have a chance to get a shot off as the buzzer sounded and England escaped with the win.

Wilkinson averaged 8.1 points and 8.3 rebounds per game last summer at the Division B European Championships with the England Under-16s in Portugal.

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.
