Foot Locker showcases local basketball talent at Home Court: London
Foot Locker has celebrated some of the UK’s best basketball talent as part of its Home Court: London tournament, in collaboration with Jordan Brand.
Held on 19 July at Clapham Common Court, Home Court: London brought together top local basketball teams for a competition to crown this year’s champions.
Eight men’s teams and four women’s teams competed in a classic 5v5 knockout tournament on the Clapham Common Court, which was refurbished by Foot Locker in 2021.
While UFDN took the crown in the men’s tournament, the female tournament was won by Thunder Bellas. The winning teams were awarded an exclusive Foot Locker in-store shopping experience, including £500 store credit for every player.

Neil Carter, VP GEO: UK & Ireland at Foot Locker, said: “Home Court: London showcased some of the best local basketball the UK has to offer, with the players really putting on a show for everyone who came down.
“Basketball has always been at the heart of what we do as a brand, so being able to host this tournament for our community, especially at our Clapham Common Court, was hugely exciting.
“We’re hope we’re continuing to inspire the next generation of basketball talent, and maybe we’ll even see some of them back on the court in future tournaments.”
