The hunt is over - Oaklands Wolves have been crowned SLBW Champions, sealing the league title with a commanding away victory over the London Lions!
Fresh off an emphatic 89-48 win at home against the Nottingham Wildcats, the Wolfpack carried that same intensity into today’s decisive clash. In a performance full of grit, composure and togetherness, Oaklands delivered when it mattered most and secured the championship on the road.
Head Coach Lee Ryan commented: “This is what we’ve worked for all season for. To go away and get the job done in this fashion says everything about the character of this group. I couldn’t be prouder of the players and staff.”
The Wolves’ title-winning display encapsulated everything that’s defined their season - fierce defence, clinical execution and an unbreakable bond on and off the court. From Terri Battle’s presence in the paint to the team’s all-round intensity, Oaklands proved why they are worthy champions.
With the league title now secured, all focus shifts to the play-offs at the O2 Arena, where the Wolfpack will look to carry their momentum into the post-season.
Champions at last. The journey continues. Next stop: the O2. Unleash the O!
