Jesmond Park Academy - Education Institution of of the Year. This sporting programme has had a massive impact on the students self-confidence, self-esteem, mental and physical well-being. All of the children in the club are encouraged to join community clubs, which the vast majority have done, extending their friendship groups and increasing their time on the court and competing in competitions

“Congratulations to all of our winners in the North East!” said Duncan Whalley, Chief Operations Officer for Basketball England. “It is a credit to the North East Region that they were able to select a winner in each category, highlighting the strength of the Basketball community across the region. Well done to all involved and the winners who were rightly recognised for their contributions.” 

All of the regional winners across the 12 award categories will be reviewed by a panel, with a total of three nominees per category then being shortlisted to be considered for National Awards.
