Nick Nurse has teamed up with one of his former assistants to mastermind Brighton Bears busiest season yet.

Nurse has confirmed Graham Wilson will be working as his assistant for the new campaign.

He replaces Steve Swanson, who has taken charge of Scottish Rocks.

The Bears chief has revealed he may further strengthen his management team as the club prepare for domestic and European action.

Wilson is English but has spent some of his career working in Australia.

He took charge of Towers for one match following the departure of coach Lino Frattin in 2001, leading them to victory over Bears at Crystal Palace.
