ABOUT US
Bromsgrove Bears Basketball Club was formed in 2010 when sisters Dawn and Carys Hall decided that there needed to be more basketball accessible to all ages and genders throughout the Bromsgrove area and beyond. The club’s aims were simple: to get more people playing basketball and to improve the overall standard of basketball players in the area. These objectives have remained true throughout the history of the club.
Bromsgrove Bears has always developed its players giving them the skills and knowledge to progress within the sport. With our experienced and dedicated coaching staff, we continue to help players at all levels of the game to attain their goals and become the best player they can be.

In 2019 Bromsgrove Bears was re constituted and with unprecedented growth was able to field six teams ranging from under 9’s to both senior Men & Women’s, the club had a very successful season developing many new players & welcoming back players had played for the bears in the early years.
