CHS Girls Basketball Team

On Monday the 20th of June, the 15 Girls Basketball Team travelled to Willoughby Girls High School to play in the CHS competition. Previously, in our first game against Tuggerah Lakes, the team played well together with many offensive and defensive rebounds won, leading to a win of 43-17.

Going into the second round against Willoughby Girls, we were pumped and excited for the away game. After going through a quick warm up, led by vice-captain Ashley Huang, as well as a pre-game pep-talk from the coach Mr Vaughan the team was ready. Beginning well, a total of 27 points were scored throughout the match 15 of them being impressive 3-pointers from Hannah-Grace Lee, Sophie Kilburn and Ashley Huang. However, it was a tough game with the opposition full of incredibly talented players who were recognised from the Junior Premier League.

Nevertheless, Fort Street’s effort and tenacity was admirable with a special thanks to Mr Vaughan for coaching and leading the team. Team: Yr 10- Lucie Atkin Bolton (No.2), Hannah-Grace Lee (No. 21), Vivian Shao (No.1), Yr 9- Anika Sinha (No. 9), Ashley Huang (No. 3), Koharu Seino (Away), Livia Zhen (No.22), Sammy Anand (No.7), Sarah Ly (No.10) and Sophie Kilburn (No.23)
