Julius Joseph Named Westminster Warriors Head Coach

By Sam Neter on August 19, 2015

NBL Division 1 side Westminster Warriors have announced former England and GB international Julius Joseph as their new Head Coach.

Joseph returned to the club where he began his career last year to play following his departure from the London Lions, but this season will double up in a player-coach role.

“I am exciting and looking forward to the challenge of being a player coach in a very competitive league,” the 2006 Commonwealth Games bronze medalist said.

“My aim is to bring pride back to the programme with a professional approach in my new role through hard work and dedication. I have a tremendous amount of experience and will be able to help the players around me to develop, get better and be successful”.

The 39 year old was an NCAA Division 2 All-American at Georgia College & State University before going on to a 13 year professional career in Europe and the BBL.

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.
