Basketball England Awards nights and PlayHQ demos coming to your region

Basketball England’s regional awards for 2024 will be presented at a series of in-person events across the country in April and May.  

The celebration evenings will also provide an opportunity for members to hear from our new digital partner PlayHQ, who will deliver in-person demonstrations of Basketball England’s incoming membership and competition management system at all 10 events. 

The sessions will recognise those who make such an important contribution to the sport in front of their peers, while PlayHQ will introduce clubs and  members to the platform - which will replace the current membership BE portal - and showcase its functionalities.

You can confirm your attendance at the foot of this article. If you are not able to attend your region’s awards nights, PlayHQ and BE will also be delivering online training sessions in the lead-up to the 2025/26 season. 

Basketball England Basketball England Club & Volunteers Development Manager Nick Holloway said: 

“These evenings will be a fantastic opportunity for us to connect as a basketball community and recognise those who have made significant contributions to our game over the past 12 months. 

“We highly encourage our clubs and members to attend so they can also hear from PlayHQ, with their presence at each event creating a terrific way for our members to see first-hand the platform’s capabilities ahead of the new season.”
