Sports Director Ana Belén Álvaro Inducted into Spanish Basketball Hall of Fame

The players and coaching staff of Caxton College Competition Sports Teams and our entire educational community have reason to be proud of our Sports Director, Ana Belén Álvaro. She has recently been inducted into the fifth class of the Spanish Basketball Hall of Fame as an individual player. She had already been inducted in 2019, in the first edition, as a member of the Spanish national basketball team, which won Spain's first gold medal in Perugia in 1993.

In a moving ceremony that took place in the Seu Vella in Lleida in October, Ana Belén thanked all of her past coaches and teammates, as well as her family. In an interview with the Spanish newspaper As, she reminded us that her generation was the one that allowed women’s basketball to really get its start in Spain. She emphasised that working with dedication and perseverance allows dreams to come true.
