Cheridene Green will continue the start of her pro career in Poland after re-signing with Gorzow for the 2020-21 campaign, the club has confirmed.

The GB Senior forward/centre enjoyed a strong rookie year out of college with averages of 14.1 points and 8.6 rebounds per game.

Green also competed in EuroCup Women action and produced four double-doubles including a best of 20 points and 11 rebounds against Botas.

“Cheri was one of the best players not only in our team, but also one of the best in the league in her position,” said head coach Dariusz Maciejewski via official release. “After a very good season, she received many proposals for playing in Europe, so I’m all the more happy that we will be watching her play [here].”

It’s now just over a year since Green made her GB Senior debut and was part of the 12-player squad that made history at FIBA Women’s EuroBasket 2019 with a run to the semi-finals.

Green helped Gorzow to a 16-5 record in their domestic league before the season in Poland was among the first to be cancelled in Europe due to the coronavirus pandemic.

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.
