Year 9 Basketball team see off Queens

The year 9 basketball team went to Queens on Wednesday in their penultimate County League game. The game was always going to be a close affair, based on previous matches and results from this season. The game started with some strong defence from both teams and saw us edge ahead in the first half through some fantastic fast breaks and passing from Alex Cleaver and Stephen Kerslake. During the second half the combination of Queens' best two players drew the game closer and us trailing by 4 points at one stage. After some inspirational words from Mr Coy the team reverted back to their slick passing game and Dan Mair showed how strong he is on court with a great display and some superb finishing. The team ended up taking the game 75-61, which slightly flattered us but the result is nothing less than the team deserved. A great win, well played boys.

Another great week for basketball

Both the year 9 and 10 basketball teams have been in action this past week and have shown how much progress they've been making by racking up 3 wind. The year 10 team went to The Hemel Hempstead School and after a very slow start came out 92-74 winners. The year 9 team has been playing some fantastic basketball and the team beat St. George's on Friday 56-22 as well as Verulam on Monday night 74-42. There were some excellent performances from Alex Cleaver, Dan Mair and Dominic Boost who has been playing up a year. The year 9's go to Queens tonight, in what should be a very close game. Good luck!
