James Vear Named Coach of the Year in Denmark

By Sam Neter on May 4, 2014

Brit James Vear has been named Coach of the Year in his first season in Denmark with Aalborg Vikings.

The GB Under-20 assistant took a team many predicted to finish bottom of the league, having won just two games the season before, to a playoff berth before suffering an opening round defeat to Bakken. Vikings finished 10-17 on the season, as Vear will now prepare for his summer campaign with the GB U20s in Division A.

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.
