Our girls’ and boys’ teams have recently participated with great success in basketball tournaments.

The boys:

On Wednesday 4 February our U13 and U15 boys took part in a very successful international schools basketball tournament at Swans School. The Aloha U13 team is an incredibly strong team and we finished the day as champions winning every single game. The U15 competition was a closer fought affair and our team finished in third place after losing the semi-final by just one basket. However, we did feel we had played well as we managed to beat the winning team in the group stages.

The girls:

The Under-13 and Under-15 Girls’ Basketball teams achieved fantastic results at the International Schools basketball tournament held at Swans International School last week. The U13 team grew in confidence as the tournament went on and with a fighting spirit they battled through to the final. It was an intense game but they just missed out on the victory this time. They should be proud of themselves finishing in 2nd place overall, a great result! The U15 team started at a loss after the 1st match; however, through their determination, skills and teamwork they came back with a vengeance to beat all the rest of their competitors to eventually be victorious overall and win the tournament. Excellent results girls, well done!
