London Thunder players Myles Barry and Andrew Nwokolo have been selected for Sport England’s Backing The Best programme.
The programme, which is funded by the National Lottery and managed by SportsAid – the sports charity that supports talented young athletes – aims to level the playing field for athletes who would face difficulties progressing through their sport’s talent development system without critical financial help.
Both Myles and Andrew demonstrated their outstanding ability to be eligible for the funding and will now work with the Basketball England Talent and Performance team to support their athletic endeavours.
