Head Coach Matthew Otten has been named the SLB Kevin Cadle Coach of the Month for February 2026.

Coach O picked up 4 wins in February in the SLB and a win over Dinamo Zagreb in the ENBL. Otten will lead Manchester out in their first ever domestic final at the AO Arena next month after beating Surrey 89ers over two legs during the month.

Otten paid tribute to his coaching staff in his reaction to the award: "Anything I’m awarded as a coach is an attest to Pitkin and Broxsie, it’s a three man job. I appreciate the recognition for our club, but we’re going for more."

Manchester are in action tonight against Caledonia Gladiators, a 7.30pm tip at NBPC, Manchester. Tickets available here.
