Two teams make their mark at the CGSSSA Basketball Gala Day
A group of girls and I competed at the CGSSSA Basketball Gala Day at Bankstown Sports Stadium on 28 May.
We had a Juniors (Years 7 and 8) and Intermediate (Years 9 and 10) team. We played roughly 4-5 intense games in our pool and the games went for 20 minutes, with two 10 minute halves. The Junior team placed 3rd after a few wins, with only some losses in their pool. The Intermediate team had a very close chance to make it to the semi’s and grand finals, but unfortunately just missed out after tying 2nd in our pool.
I would like to thank Mrs Manalo (Intermediate team coach) and Miss Mann (Junior team coach) for putting in their time and effort, guiding us throughout the day and organising a variety of training sessions so we could learn the dynamics of the game before the day. As a whole sports team, we represented the school and definitely left our name out there on the court.
