Mike Penning, MP for Hemel Hempstead has written to England Basketball in support of Hemel Storm’s bid to play in Division One of the National League.

Mike said:
“I and my family have thoroughly enjoyed supporting Storm at Sportspace. They have created a real buzz locally and they are developing links with schools and are making a real contribution to the local community.

“I may be biased but they appear the most ‘professional’ of all the clubs that have come to Hemel and this is due to the experience and expertise of the people who are driving the club forward.”
