Worthing Thunder are pleased to announce the signing of Oberon Lacroix
Oberon has previously played for Thunder in our Junior programme, having recently graduated from Leeds Beckett university he is now back in Brighton
Director of Basketball Zaire Taylor Commented “ I’m very excited about this signing, Although, I wasn’t around when Oberon was part of the Junior program, playing for both BHASVIC and Thunder Juniors, should encourage others in our programme that playing for the Juniors to now playing for the Seniors if you work hard you get rewarded and he is now being able to get paid to be a professional basketball player is an amazing thing. He has a very well rounded skill set that will help us significantly. What I like most is he is just as keen to work with our juniors and coach in the community.”
Oberon Commented on being able to return to a club he played for as a junior- “Worthing thunder was my first national league team as a kid and it was a big part of my younger years, so it feels good to comeback and play for the men’s team. I’m really looking forward to progressing as an individual with thunder and I’m excited to play with a new group of talented players.”
