When starting centre Bennett Koch was ruled out of the British Basketball League first-round play-off series with Leicester Riders, Sheffield Sharks head coach Atiba Lyons was left to wonder ‘here we go again’.

Injuries to key men on the eve of their first-round contests in the previous two years had contributed to the Sharks losing the two-legged ties and their season ending early.

Days like Sunday when the noise in support of the team was non-stop, made all the years of lobbying for an arena of their own worthwhile. “That atmosphere in that building was electric, it was a dream come true for us in that respect,” said Lyons, who is also a director of the club. “We are just really proud of every element of the building, of the team, of the fans, and it’s always a proud moment when we’re in that building.
