Eanna Basketball Club Announcement

Eanna Basketball was set up as a Division 2 team from players from Colaiste Eanna and Notre Dame nine years ago. In a short period of time, the team was promoted to Division One in the Dublin Mens Senior league and subsequently added a second senior team.

An important milestone in the short history of the club took place when Notre Dame joined Eanna Basketball Club. With a catchment area of Rathfarnham, Firhouse and Tallaght, Notre Dame had a long history of success at Underage.

Following a meeting in March 2012 with parents, players and committee members, the entire club membership agreed on the following three primary objectives.

• To ensure the future of Eanna basketball club
• To develop a more consistent level of coaching throughout the club
• To establish clearer pathways for players to progress through

“Look at various options to develop a National League Team with a view to ultimately becoming a Premier League team”.

The club are delighted to announce the acceptance by Basketball Ireland Men's National Competitions Committee of Eanna Basketball Club to compete in the Premier League for the forthcoming season 2015/2016.

Today's announcement has fulfilled our common goal and vision for the club and we look forward to welcoming our current and former players to cheer on Eanna in their inaugural Premier League season.
