GB U18 Men final roster for Euros announced

By Sam Neter on July 20, 2023

Head coach Alan Keane has confirmed his Great Britain Under-18 Men’s roster for the FIBA European Championships Division B which start on Friday in Matosinhos, Portugal.

GB were drawn in Group A and will face North Macedonia, Austria, Iceland and Norway.

Ahead of their opening game against Iceland on Friday, Keane said: “Regardless how many European Championships one does, the feeling never waivers in terms of pride, privilege and gratitude to represent Great Britain on the international stage.

“What excites me most this time around is the quality of players, staff and people we have. This may be one of the hardest-working playing groups we have had and the depth of knowledge and experience I am surrounded with by the team staff can only be described as elite.”

Keane, who is supported by assistant coaches Mike Bernard and Ian MacLeod, added: “We look forward to getting started on Friday versus Iceland and are feeling very positive about the opportunity that is in front of us. Our ambition is to represent the nation with distinction and give each player experiences that will progress their careers in the best possible way.”

Keane has selected a 12-man roster which features an exciting range of domestic and US-based talent.

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.
