Our Story

The Lions Basketball Club was established in 2018 following a split from the Wildcats Basketball Club. However, our dedicated team has been actively involved in the men's team since 2008.

Since 2014, we've risen from the bottom of the league in Norfolk to achieve a remarkable rise to success. We've secured back-to-back promotions and delivered strong performances in Division 1, culminating in a league and cup double victory in 2022.

As of 2026, we are four-time Norfolk League champions with three teams competing across the league. Lions 1 and 2 play in Division 1, with Lions 3 in Division 2. Below, you can explore our journey — the highs, the titles, and the challenges that have made us who we are.
