YEAR 8 GIRLS BASKETBALL NEWS

By Mr Ormrod

The Year 8 girls went to Cheney for the U13 County Final where they faced a tough Cheney team. The girls were missing some key players but played well, narrowly losing in a closely contested game in the last quarter. The girls should be really proud of themselves on a great year and Mr Ormrod is looking forward to getting them started again in Year 9.

The Year 10 boys went undefeated in the regular season, placing them in the finals against Cheney. Unfortunately, they fell short during the final game which was hosted at Oxford Brookes University in May, awarding Cheney the win. However, the team have not let this knock stop them. Both the Year 10 boys and girls teams have been working above and beyond in preparation for the season ahead. The commitment and effort made by both teams is admirable and really sets a high standard. They have been training before school (7am start!) and after school at least three times a week, with the focus on conditioning and repetition to help prepare for September.

'We have had a great year and although we didn't get the finish we had hoped for, we're ahead on our path of coming back better and stronger - super proud of both teams!' -
