The Galway Masters Basketball Association was founded in 2011. The aim of the association is to promote masters basketball and host an annual international tournament in Galway City.
The Galway Masters strive to deliver a top class tournament with equal emphasis on the social as well as the competitive sides of our great game. In 2011, the inaugural Galway Masters International Tournament took place at the NUIG Kingfisher. The tournament has grown from strength to strength and we are looking forward to hosting the 5th Galway Masters International Tournament on Saturday & Sunday the 31st October and 1st November 2015.

The tournament is run on a ‘not for profit’ basis with any surplus funds and the proceeds of our Gala Dinner raffle going to our nominated cause. In previous years we have supported The Alzheimer’s Organisation, Autism Services, Wheelchair Basketball and Suicide Prevention. For 2015, our nominated charity is Breast Cancer Research. Breast Cancer Research is a Galway based, national charity who are committed to funding breast cancer research at NUI, Galway that helps improve treatments and outcomes for women in Ireland and across the world.

The Galway Masters also present a lifetime contribution award each year. This award recognises an individual’s contribution to Galway basketball. Previous recipients were Serge Bruzzi in 2011, Joe Naughton in 2012 , Maura Harte in 2013 and Gerry Nihill in 2014.

We have three divisions – Men’s 40s & 50s and Ladies 40s. The 2015 tournament has expanded to 27 teams.

Our tournament is only possible with the generous support and contribution of our sponsors, volunteers, referees and table officials, to whom we are very grateful.
