Congratulations to our 6ths Basketball who completed the season as undefeated premiers for 2013. This team which comprises only of Year 11 boys have shown amazing fight and persistence and to win each of their games after winning none of them in the trial season is a fantastic effort.
They didn’t have it all their way each game, having to come back from behind on a number of occasions.
In one particular match late in the season, the boys were down 8 points to 16 points. For many teams this would be enough to discourage them – not this team. Our boys fought back gallantly on the back of some Braidon Burns brilliance win the second half 19-6 and finish up winners of the game by 27 points to 22 points.
It was this “never-give-up” approach though that got them through each week and has them walking away with a pennant.
