Sheffield Hatters sealed their 17th EBL Women's Division One title with an 81-67 victory at Nottingham Wildcats on Saturday.

It was also a fifth straight championship for the Hatters who stamped their authority on the EBL the following day as Barking Abbey Leopards were hammered 95-55 in Sheffield.
