Why the State Cup?
Basketball in England is very young and without a true structure at a grassroots level. As Somerset State continues to develop, we believe we will be able to help grow the sport for all. Our NEW Somerset State Cup is our next step in providing more basketball game opportunities to our players, whilst providing competition between our coaching centres who wouldn't ordinarily meet. This is also a fantastic opportunity for our coaches to see where there players are in their learning journey... MAY THE BATTLE OF THE CENTRES COMMENCE!
