Results
Thursday 27th September – Y10 Girls Basketball V
JFK (County League)
Sandringham school played their first ever girls basketball
game, against JFK, last year’s district and county champions. The girls started
slow as expected in their first game ever. However they soon picked it up, lead
well by Elizabeth Tanton and Chloe Pettengel working hard. Abi Charnock worked
hard for rebounds. A good start to their first campaign, Emily Caswell
was top point scorer with 6. However MVP goes to Izzy Hanton for a superb
performance, excellent on defence and offence. The second half performance was
outstanding and we drew 4-4 with them in the 4th quarter. Despite
this we lost 45-14.
Sam Tanton 11D (Team Coach)
Friday 28th September Y7 Basketball V Beaumont
As half of the Year 7 students were away in the Peak District
the basketball team, for their first fixture were limited to a fraction of the
47 man squad leaving only 23 to play. The game was a training match against
Beaumont and a first opportunity for the boys to play the sport. It was a steep
learning curve for all involved and gave the team an opportunity to play and
develop an understanding of the rules whilst also practise their newly
developed skills with one another. There were some excellent individual
performances and the aim of the evening was to introduce all to the competitive
elements of the sport.
Saturday 29th September Y7,8,9,10 Football V Sir
John Lawes
Saturday saw the boys football teams return to
action against Sir John Lawes. This is an annual fixture that often provides
some of the toughtest games of the year. All 4 teams showed character and
passion and have begin to gel well as team units. The outcome was 2 wins and 2
losses. The year 7’s after a good early start lost their way in the second half
and eventually came out 2nd best 0-4. The year 8’s, with a few key
players absent ended up winning emphatically 9-0. The Year 9’s played
exceptionally well in the first half, however lost their fight late on and as
their heads dropped lost 4-0. The Year 10’s showed again just how strong they are
with a 5-2 win over the opposition with a magnificent display.
