[edit] Offseason
In April 2005, the Thames Valley Tigers basketball club folded and a group of fans were determined to save the club. Mike Davies became their leader and this group took over the administration of the club, something unprecedented in modern day basketball. The team did not meet the deadline to be admitted to the 2005-06 British Basketball League, but the new administration got in touch with the league headquarters and both parts agreed to enter a new team to replace the Tigers. In just a question of months, not only was elite basketball saved in the area, but the Guildford Heat was created, ready to compete in the BBL.
