Players, coaches, families and supporters came together to celebrate the achievements of the club this season.
Leicester Dynamite marked the end of a remarkable season in style with its annual awards night.
The event brought together players, coaches, families and supporters for an evening of celebration at Abbey Sports and Leisure in Leicester.
The season saw four Dynamite teams finish top of their respective leagues - U14s, U16s, U17s Red and U17 girls. Both the U14s and U16s also secured promotion to the Premier league and the U17 girls capped off their campaign by winning the YBL Cup.
This season saw the introduction of the first Leicester Dynamite girls team. Their achievement reflected months of hard work, dedication and team collaboration and serves as a powerful example of the club’s thriving pathway for female athletes.
The event recognised both team and individual contributions, with awards presented to players who demonstrated performance, development and commitment throughout the season.
The success reflects a continued focus on player development and a strong club pathway, with younger athletes progressing through the ranks and contributing to competitive success at higher levels.
Head Coach Dave Harris said: “It’s been a brilliant season. The commitment from players, the work from coaches, and the support from families has been outstanding. To see so many teams succeed, and to watch players develop the way they have, is what it’s all about. This club continues to grow, and nights like this show just how special Leicester Dynamite is.”
He added that the club’s progress is built on a collective effort, with coaches and volunteers playing a key role in supporting players on and off the court.
The awards night also highlighted the club’s strong sense of community, bringing together all age groups to celebrate shared success.
With teams moving up leagues and continued growth across the club, Leicester Dynamite now looks ahead to the 2026/27 season with momentum.
