City of Birmingham Rockets Basketball Club have launched season tickets for the 2023-24 season - as the club prepares for its first campaign in National Basketball League Division One.

Both Rockets men 's and women 's first teams will compete in the top division of the English basketball pyramid next season after winning their respective National League Two sections last term.

The men went onto be crowned overall national champions with a stunning play-off final victory over St Helens Saints at the National Basketball Performance Centre in Manchester.

Attention is already turning to the 2023-24 campaign, with top level basketball returning to Birmingham for the first time since the glory days of the Birmingham Bullets, the professional British Basketball League franchise who went into liquidation in 2006.

Priced at £120 for adults and £70 for concessions, season tickets will include entry to all 13 regular season home games for the Rockets men and another 11 for the women 's team.

Demand to see the Rockets - who formed in 2003 - is at an all-time high with the last five home games at Nechells Wellbeing Centre selling out.

CEO and founder Rob Palmer said: “Last season was an unprecedented success for our men and women and we can safely say that Birmingham once again has a basketball club to be proud of.

“The support from the people of Birmingham has been fantastic and we look forward to building on this success in the coming season and beyond. ”

Season tickets purchased before 31 May will also secure entry to one of the Rockets ' forthcoming pre-season friendly fixtures.
