Basketball lifts off at Mile End

Tuesday evening marked a significant piece of history for Top Corner as we launched our maiden Basketball league in Mile End.

League Manager Jen Hart has been working tirelessly behind the scenes for the last few months to ensure all was ready for our opening night and we’re delighted to report she wasn’t left disappointed as everything clicked into place. Jen has assembled a crack team of officials to deliver the best possible league and her line-up includes two hawk-eyed table officials supporting her two referees on court.

With everything in place it was great to see the teams finally playing, especially to such a high standard. Ernst & Young took home the opening night plaudits and ended up as the evenings high-scorers racking up 43 points. JP Morgan and Deloitte both scored 30 apiece and also started their campaigns with wins. Our MVPs for the night were Allan Lang (Moody’s), Richard Welch (JP Morgan) and James Farley (Deloitte). Cube Capital will play their first game next week.

We’ll leave the last word with the teams:

‘Thank you for organising the matches last night and it was really fun to play competitively in the league.’ Ernst & Young

‘We had a blast!’ Informa
