Described as the embodiment of 'Plymouth Basketball' for his work in the South West, Woodall packs his week with multiple opportunities to spread the joy of the game to young people in the local area by working across local, regional and Jnr. NBL.
As the Director of Creative Crossover, Woodall has helped develop the sport at all levels, including securing Sport England funding to carry out a weekend session for four to eight-year olds in Stonehouse, a higher-risk crime area with no basketball provision.
Alongside Troy Woodhouse and Louise Mills, Woodall and Crossover have done some fantastic work in the region, including bringing the 'Fox Court' to life earlier this year.
"Firstly, my congratulations go to Glenn. He joins a list of outstanding winners of this award, like Ruth Eytle, Lamar Roberts, Ben Fisher and more.
"I'm sure we can all agree that young players are the future of the sport, and driving their passion and desire to get into basketball, against the competition from other sports and other interests, is huge.
"Glenn's work in his spare time is a credit to himself, and a massive resource for the South West region, and his work with Creative Crossover has so much potential on a number of fronts.
"Well done Glenn, keep up the great work!"
Woodall's recognition continues an eight-day period where national recipients of the 2024 Basketball England Awards will be announced.
Winners from across BE's ten regions were announced across April and May, with those recipients then shortlisted to narrow down the field for each national winner.
The Hoopstars and others will be recognised for their achievements over the coming days, leading up to another cohort of selections being celebrated with their "Services to Basketball" awards on Monday, 7 July 2025.
