About this listen

Episode 3 of Hoops n Headsets takes a closer look at one of the most fascinating teams heading into the EuroLeague Women Final Six, Girona.


Mark Mills is joined by Shona Thorburn, we explore a team built on versatility, emerging talent, and the ability to challenge opponents in different ways. Girona may not follow a traditional contender profile, but that is exactly what makes them so dangerous.


This episode breaks down how their flexibility, player development, and growing confidence could position them as a genuine factor in the Final Six. From breakout performances to the influence of their domestic success, we examine why Girona have more pathways to success than many expect.


We also explore the role of experience, the importance of leadership in key moments, and how factors like travel and familiarity with the environment could quietly work in their favour.


If you are looking for insight into the teams that can disrupt expectations and reshape the tournament, this is the episode for you.
