Incredible season of victories for Star teams
Once again, our players and coaches have had a terrific season and have cemented our place at the forefront of Ulster and all-Ireland basketball.
Across the board, our League and Cup wins are a credit to the commitment of all those involved and are a great indication of a bright future ahead.
Our u12, u14, u16 and u18 Boys all completed League and Cup Doubles this year. Our girls' sides went from strength to strength and we had four of our u14 Girls selected for Team NI.
And in the All Ireland Super League, Star battled it out at the top of the League for most of the season dramatically clinching the crown with a last-minute buzzer beater. What a season, what a finish!

Hall of Fame Award for 'Mr Basketball' – Danny Fulton
In a fitting and timely tribute, Star’s Danny Fulton was recently elected to Basketball Ireland’s Hall of Fame.
Danny is famed far and wide as an exceptionally talented and passionate coach who, down through the years, has helped bring the Irish game forward by leaps and bounds.
Among his many career highlights were coaching Ireland’s senior team to their first ever European win (against Portugal) and also coaching Ireland Junior men to their first European win (beating Denmark).
He also coached Northern Ireland to Commonwealth Bronze in 1990 before delivering a prestigious series of Irish titles for his beloved Star during the 90s. And to cap it all, he’s still going as strong as ever.
