Troon Tornadoes

Troon Tornadoes

The Troon Tornadoes are one of Scotland's leading amateur basketball clubs, competing in the Scottish Men's National League. They are based in the town of Troon, South Ayrshire, and play out of the sports hall at Marr College.

In the summer of 2006, several players formed part of a mass exodus towards professional basketball clubs including Dan Wardrope (to Guildford Heat), Brian McCotter (to Newcastle Eagles), and Andy Pearson (to Scottish Rocks).

For the 2006/07 season Troon will also take part in the BBL Cup alongside the professional franchise clubs of the British Basketball League and a select few clubs from the SBL and the English Basketball League.

The club also compete in most/all other age groups, both at national league level, and local league level.
