It was a privilege to see the Senior BMS Basketball Team in the Sports Hall on Tuesday after school playing an extremely close game against St Michaels. Their commitment and effort was inspiring and the final quarter was end to end action all the way to the last second of the game. Coach Mr O’Kelly commented that “it was a game the boys could have won and on the day it wasn’t to be. A slight inaccuracy with the shooting at times perhaps was the margin between just missing out and winning.”

The visiting coach spoke very highly of all the boys taking part and was very impressed with their skill and teamwork and the extremely professional way that they conducted themselves throughout the evening. It was also great to see a significant number of Year 11 and Sixth Form students watching and supporting their peers.

I would like to thank and congratulate all those who played and also those who supported the team for representing the school so impeccably and also to Mr O’Kelly for developing and overseeing the team
