The LSB is the official basketball partner of the College of Haringey, Enfield and North East London (COHENEL), teaming up to provide the LSB Enfield Basketball Academy as a fresh new focus for basketball excellence in North London.

Led by one of the most respected coaches in Britain, former GB International and 8 year BBL pro , Jay Williams, the Academy is committed to providing the very bestĀ basketball environment for both elite and developing players alike.

Our mission at Ā is to guide and support every player through to becoming the very best version of themselves, they possibly can be, both on and off the court.

Our teams compete in the English Academies Basketball League (ABL), AoC and also the CBL – providing in excess of 35 games per season for our teams. Ā In Ā addition, we take our Varsity team away to compete in major tournaments abroad each year, giving our players invaluable experiences playing against elite international competition as we prepare our players for the next level.

We are also pleased to announce that we are able to offer financial scholarship support for gifted and talented players to the value of Ā£2,500 per year, to help with travelling, equipment and training costs for those who meet the criteria.

The COHENEL Basketball Academy is split into two areas of program development, Varsity and Junior Varsity squads, for both males and females aged between 16-19.
