🎆 HAPPY NEW YEAR 2026! 🎆
As we welcome in 2026, we want to say a huge thank you to every club, group, player, parent, coach, official, volunteer, and supporter who makes our basketball community what it is.
From Grassroots Basketball to Whiteley Warriors NL, and across Fareham Falcons, Gosport Gunners, New Forest Novas, Boorley Green Bucks, and all our development and pathway groups — this is one shared journey, built on opportunity, inclusion, and love for the game.
🏀 From first sessions and grassroots hoops
🏀 To development pathways and National League
🏀 To friendships, confidence, and community
2025 was about growth.
2026 is about building together — stronger than ever.
Thank you for being part of our ever-growing basketball family.
⚔️ Be Brave. Be Brilliant.
Here’s to a fantastic year ahead!
🖤🤍♥️ 🏀

Hi everyone 👋 Breaking News!! A New Warrior is Born!
Just a quick personal and club update from me Gareth Birkett Co Director and Welfare Officer.
I’m very proud to share that our family has welcomed the newest basketball player to the area — Morgan Arthur Edward Birkett, born on 10th December at 2:11pm 💙 ❤️ 🖤
Mum Kayleigh Hunt is doing really well, and as a family we’re settling in following a recent house move and adjusting to life with a newborn, especially with Christmas just around the corner.
Because of this, I’ve taken a small step back from some club administration and coaching duties for the time being. That said, everything across Whiteley Warriors Basketball CIC and Outlet Basketball Club Development is running as normal, and all sessions will continue as scheduled.
I will return before the end of the year and Xmas break for those final sessions.
Boorley Green Bucks
New Forest Nova's Basketball
Gosport Gunners Basketball Club
Fareham Falcons Basketball
Coaching & sessions
Ash (men’s team / Gosport) will be supporting Warriors sessions at the weekend
Coaches are in place for Grassroots Basketball CIC League games this weekend and all national league will go ahead as planned.
If Ben isn’t covering a session, we’ll ensure another coach is there
Any session updates or changes will be shared in the relevant team group chats
Contact & welfare
For any support or questions, please contact your child’s coach first — they are your main point of contact, team managers and other team leads are also in the group chats.
If something needs to be raised with me directly, I will come back to you as soon as I can, but replies may take a little longer at the moment
I won’t be able to take on any new requests or additional commitments until after Christmas
I remain the Welfare Officer for Whiteley Warriors — for urgent welfare matters, please contact Basketball England or Children’s Services but still email me on [email protected] and I will come back to you asap.
