The Final Four weekend of the BBL Trophy is now set with Caledonia Gladiators, Cheshire Phoenix, Leicester Riders and London Lions advancing from the group phase.

Defending champions Caledonia had to wait to secure their spot from Group A after a third successive victory for Cheshire on Saturday ensured both teams made it through to the semi-finals with a chance of repeating their memorable clash from 12 months ago.

London sailed through Group B with three wins from four, while Leicester needed an impressive 85-101 road victory at arch-rivals Newcastle Eagles to clinch second spot and advance.

Semi-finals:
Cheshire Phoenix v Leicester Riders
London Lions v Caledonia Gladiators

The ties will take place in Birmingham on Saturday, 27th January before the final is held on Sunday.

Tickets available, HERE.

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.
