The serial winner from Copenhagen.

Watch Toby Christensen for a quarter and the value shows before he scores a point. The Danish forward rebounds. In his title-winning 2024-25 season with Cork's Blue Demons he pulled down roughly ten boards a game, among the top rebounders in the Superleague. Possessions the Eagles would once have given away, he keeps alive.

What sets him apart is that he does everything. He is a fantastic passer with a lot of experience, and he knows when to make the right pass at the right time. He can score at all three levels, and he defends across positions. For a young Eagles side, plenty of Limerick Lions products learning the senior game, a player who can do all of it is a big help.

Then there is the timing. In the Division One final he produced a block in the fourth quarter, reading the play rather than reacting to it. This season he was also named the smartest player in the league, which fits the way he plays.

Christensen is into his fifth season in Ireland. Promotion to the Super League with the Eagles is the third Irish team he has helped go up, after UCD and the Blue Demons. When the club brought him down from Cork last summer, they got a player who already knew what an Irish March feels like, and the supporters who packed the UL Sport Arena warmed to him quickly.

2025-26 with the Eagles

A steadying senior presence through the double-winning campaign. Christensen featured across the Cup and league runs and contributed in the Division One final win over Titans BC (82–63), including a key defensive block in the fourth quarter as the Eagles closed out promotion.
