IPSHA Basketball Round 4
Round 4 of the IPSHA Basketball competition delivered plenty of excitement, with teams showcasing impressive skill and sportsmanship.
This week, the spotlight shines on Pymble 11, who have been named Team of the Week for their outstanding performance. Pymble 11 clinched a dramatic 22 to 20 victory, edging out their opponents in a nail-biting finish. The game was fiercely contested from start to finish, with both sides battling hard for every point. However, Pymble’s determination and teamwork was vital in earning them a well-deserved win. On top of a fantastic match and win, Pymble 11 did all of this with just five players!
Congratulations to Pymble 11 on their hard-fought victory and Team of the Week.

Lauren Jackson Academy
Over the weekend, our Years 3 to 6 Basketball enthusiasts gathered for the final Lauren Jackson Academy clinic of 2025. The final session for the year did not disappoint, offering participants a fantastic opportunity to learn from one of Australia’s and the world’s greatest basketball players.
Guided by expert coaches and inspired by Lauren Jackson’s legacy, players worked hard on developing their fundamental skills, teamwork, and enthusiasm for the game. The energy and excitement were evident throughout the clinic, with everyone eager to put their new skills into practice.
As this was the last Lauren Jackson Academy clinic for the year, it was a wonderful way to finish the academy. We look forward to seeing everyone back on the court next year!
