The pavilion was the base training venue for the British men's and women's national team ahead of Eurobasket 2015. It is also home to the British men's and women's wheelchair teams, as well as being the venue for the 2015 European Wheelchair Championships. It also has two additional basketball courts with fitness equipment at the University's St John's Sport Center.

The University of Worcester facilities are within a large campus offering large, secure landscaped grounds. Each floor of the residence consists of 6 spacious rooms, with comfortable and convenient common areas. The campus is located close to the city center and has areas perfect for sightseeing and shopping (supervised).

The city of Worcester is a beautiful 12th century town with its own cathedral. Its location allows easy access to the cities of Birmingham, Warwick, Stratford-Xpon-Avon, Cardiff and London. It is situated on the River Severn in a rural county surrounded by beautiful scenery and views including the Malvern Hills.

Two of the top basketball clubs in the UK and Spain have joined forces to develop a unique summer experience for the most talented and promising young players. The technical team of the campus will be composed of members of the coaching staff and players of the Worcester Wolves Senior team and the sports coordination of Valencia Basket coaches.

Born in 2000, Worcester Wolves is one of the most respected basketball clubs in the British Basketball League. The club has earned a national reputation for excellence on and off the court.
