Russell Hoops Player’s make County team!

Two of Russell Hoops’ players, Daniel Keyser and Hamadee Taousi, have been selected to represent the County in the East Region Tournaments which are to take place in May this year.

Both players battled through a trial made up of 60 talented players and were chosen for a final squad of 20 which will be made up into ‘A’ and ‘B’ teams.

Daniel Keyser will be representing in the U13 category, with Hamadee Taousi playing for the U15 squad.

Daniel and Hamadee are both regular players at the Russell Hoops Academy’ sessions and its camps.  It is great to see these boys being rewarded for all their hard work.

Head Coach at Russell Hoops, Ben Russell, had this to say:

“I am really pleased to hear the fantastic news that Dan and Hamadee have made the County Team.  They have a tremendous work ethic and have been a pleasure to coach.  Nobody deserves it more than these two boys.  They still have a lot of work to do to put them in a good position to make the ‘A’ team but ‘hard work’ is something these boys are used to.”

Russell Hoops would like to take this opportunity to wish Dan and Hamadee the best of luck in their preparation and for the final tournament in May.
