Vicky Gottwald

Vicky has been involved in Basketball since she was in year 10 at school.  She didn’t take up the sport seriously until she came to Bangor University in 2003. During her second year she took on the role of Captain and Coach of the Women’s team.

During 2009 / 2010 Vicky has played in all BUCS matches and the team have been unbeaten at home. The team have reached the BUCS Cup North Semi Finals and ended the season in 2nd position.

Vicky has been selected to represent the Welsh University team three times at the British University Games and in the 2009 / 2010 season she was chosen as Vice captain at the Home Nations Games.

For the last year Vicky has also been involved in developing links between Bangor University and Holyhead Celts Basketball Clubs. This has helped players fund coaching qualifications but has also facilitated access to expertise. Dependent on funding a five year plan will see the development of a North Wales Basketball Academy with players feeding from primary schools ultimately through to the university teams.

Vicky’s next long term goal is to be selected for the Welsh Women’s National Team, which hopefully with hard work and commitment will be achievable.
