Paralympic Games: Disappointment for Ellesmere Port's Billy Bridge as Team GB lose to Germany
ELLESMERE Port's Billy Bridge could only watch on as his teammates lost to Germany in Great Britain's second wheelchair basketball fixture of the Tokyo 2020 Paralympic Games.
The 26-year-old was one of three players not to feature in the 71-59 Preliminary Round Group B defeat.
Billy played the final quarter of yesterday's opener with Algeria - scoring one point and making an assist - and will hope to get some court time when Team GB face the United States tomorrow (9am BST).
Great Britain currently sit third in their group of six, with the top four teams progressing to the quarter finals.
