Alba Berlin is ready for the first season of the German Women’s Basketball League. As the latest new signing, newly promoted American Laina Snyder has signed for the season starting in October, the club announced on Tuesday.
The 26-year-old college graduate, 6’1″ is the fifth recent signing.
Snyder is currently playing for the tournament in New Zealand with her current club Southern Hoiho. Earlier this year, she actually won the title in Luxembourg with the T71 Dudelange. Sneijder, who was destined to take up senior positions, was also under contract with Australia, his home country of Greece, and with second-tier club Eintracht Braunschweig.
Before Snyder, Nina Rosemeyer, Dechera Thomas, Tessa Stamberger and Maggie Mulligan joined Alba. On the other hand, Valeria Alexiua, Hana Brown, Luciana Chagas, Lily Dressener and Magdalena Winter left the club after promotion.
