Archers v Wolves, WBBL 2022-23,

            File: 2023003-0145

Cardiff Met Archers vs Oakland Wovles, Women’s British Basketball League (WBBL) match on Saturday 18th March 2023. Game played at the Archers Arena, Cardiff Metropolitan University, in Cardiff, Wales, United Kingdom, during the 2022-23 season.
 
About the photograph.

This is Shannon Hatch in the dark kit with the number 22, playing for Cardiff Met Archers attempting to shoot the ball into the basket, and scored two points.

Hatch was born in Lausanne, Switzerland on 23rd October 1993, I believe she had since left Archers and now plays for a different team.

The photograph was shot in colour, I used Adobe Lightroom to convert the shot into black and white for a dramatic feel.

Special thanks goes to Cardiff Met Archers for allowing me to take the photography from the courtside.
 
About the teams.

The Wales based Cardiff Met Archers started in 1999, as a university basketball team. They have about 19 different teams, range from Under-10s to Seniors, and men’s teams as well as women’s teams.

The women’s senior team (seen here in the photograph) is the only team in a top-level elite franchise-based league. They joined the Women’s British Basketball League when it was first set up in 2014, and to date, are still in the WBBL.

The Oaklands Wolves is an English women’s basketball team based at Oaklands College, in St Albans, Hertfordshire. It was founded in 2009, and started playing in the professional level women’s basketball team from the 2016-17 season onwards.

The Oakland Wolves also includes a men’s team in the second tier National Basketball League.
