GB U20 Women Overpowered by Bosnia & Herzegovina

By Sam Neter on July 11, 2015

Great Britain found out why Bosnia and Herzegovina are the best team at the U20 European Championship Women Division B after suffering an 87-52 defeat to the unbeaten leaders.

Playing in their penultimate game in Podgorica, Great Britian were unable to keep pace against their opponents who stamped their authority on the contest after a powerful end to the opening period.

That had them on the front foot at 25-13 and Bosnia and Herzegovina never had cause to look back as they cruised to a comfortable victory.

Sarah Thomson of Team Northumbria impressed for GB with 12 points and five rebounds.

GB have one last chance to register a success in the competition when they sign off their participation with a clash against Romania on Sunday at 10.30 (UK time).

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.
