@p_whelan1Two Best minute of my day!🔥🔥🔥

Year 7! 😅 I’d like to thank the Caledonia Gladiators for having me for the last couple of years. Regardless of my feelings towards last season, we had some very special moments and I got to know some really great people! ⚔️🔵

@NLootin Happy birthday bro!

Host a basketball event in the morning. Go for a chilled dinner. Watch Chelsea in club World Cup final with a view overlooking the city. Pretty much the perfect birthday. Feeling blessed.

Through all the adversity of this season to be included in this team means a lot, appreciate all the votes! 🇬🇧🙏🏽

From Manchester Magic to Spain to the GB squad — Pat Whelan has lived it all. In a special Chargeton Tales sit-down, he talks joy, pressure, broken systems, and the future of British basketball. The full interview is out now. Read it here: chargetonoaks.co.uk/pat-whelan

“That year really brought my joy back for basketball.” @p_whelan1Two of the @Cal_Gladiators Saturday lunchtime, I drop my full sit-down with one of the game’s most authentic voices. You won’t want to miss it. #BritishBasketball #PatWhelan #GBBasketball #SLB #EuroBasket

Here is another 𝗣𝗮𝘁𝗿𝗶𝗰𝗸 𝗪𝗵𝗲𝗹𝗮𝗻-𝗔𝗳𝗿𝗶𝗰𝗮𝗻 𝗕𝗮𝘀𝗸𝗲𝘁𝗯𝗮𝗹𝗹 𝗖𝗼𝗻𝗻𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 🔗 for #BritishBasketball followers… Patrick Whelan’s uncle, Jean Claude Ntep, is also a former Cameroon 🇨🇲 national team (@FECABASKET) player who played for the Central African nation at the 𝟭𝟵𝟵𝟮 @FIBA 𝗔𝗳𝗿𝗶𝗰𝗮 𝗖𝗵𝗮𝗺𝗽𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀𝗵𝗶𝗽 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗠𝗲𝗻 (nka @AfroBasket). He has since become a highly respected figure in coaching across several African countries. In 2013, Ntep served as an assistant coach for 🇨🇬 @Congobasket during their FIBA AfroBasket campaign. Four years ago, he was the head coach of 🇨🇫 Bangui SC (@BanguiSportingC), guiding them through an inspiring @roadtoBAL run. Today, Ntep leads Cameroon’s Onyx Basketball (@OnyxBasket), in the Elite Messieurs (Cameroun Basketball League). Patrick’s connection to the Ntep family tree underscores the rich legacy of African basketball within his family—a legacy rooted in history and still thriving through him, his brother Jordan (@jordan_whelan), their uncle and several others.

Here’s a fun #AfricanBasketball fact for #BritishBasketball followers… Patrick Whelan’s (@p_whelan1Two) mother Catherine Whelan (née Ntep) played in the 𝟭𝟵𝟴𝟯 @FIBA 𝗔𝗳𝗿𝗶𝗰𝗮 𝗖𝗵𝗮𝗺𝗽𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀𝗵𝗶𝗽 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗪𝗼𝗺𝗲𝗻 (today known as the @afrobasketwomen). Catherine Whelan (née Ntep) helped Cameroon 🇨🇲 beat Mozambique 🇲🇿, Côte d’Ivoire 🇨🇮, Angola 🇦🇴 en route to the bronze medal 🥉. @FECABASKET #WomensBasketball
