BASKETBALL

Year 8 Boys v Croxley Danes (District League) AWAY  Mr O’Kelly/Mr James

Date : Thursday 25th January 2024

Result : 20 – 15 Loss

Scorers :P. Soteriou, K. Johnson ,R. Doran, F. Gee 

Squad : F. Gee, R. Doran, K. Johnson, P. Soteriou, E. Pinto, M. Appa, S. McGrath, M. Tarjan, B. Spencer, E. Goddard

Commended performances: P. Soteriou 

Comment : The Year 8’s took part in their first competitive basketball match of the year against Croxley Danes. BMS started off well scoring a few early baskets, however lack of concentration at times which did lead to Croxley scoring. As the game progressed BMS showed positive signs of a comeback but failed to capitalise with their lay up shots and contesting for rebounds. After that BMS struggled to get back into the game after going 4 baskets down in the third quarter and at times did struggle with the fundamentals, which lead to Croxley winning  However it was a positive experience for the students to play, special mention to B. Spencer and M. Tarjan who stepped up at the last minute to represent the school. We hope to develop our skills in training every Tuesday lunchtime so that we can put what we practise into our next upcoming fixture.

Comment : The boys featured in the annual 5-a-side District tournament which was played at Power League. It was a Round Robin competition eventually leading to play off matches. BMS played attacking football with fast build ups leading to some very good goals being scored. At the other end of the pitch, F. Hoy made some smart stops throughout the tournament and the defence defended resiliently throughout. It was a very good experience for the team which they did enjoy. Following all the round robin group games the BMS team qualified for the Final where they met Westfield who we defeated 3-1 – a brilliant effort by all the boys (Mr James)

 

Special mention to the Year 10 and 11 Sports leaders who were excellent referees and great role models for the younger students. Well done to K Tinriover, C Tegzes, Z Watson, L Fearnside, S Mowle, J Allan,

Comment :This was a strong performance from the girls. We took the lead quickly and began to settle into the game by taking time with our passes to ensure possession. With strong shooting, excellent defending in the circle and constant movement down court the girls gained an impressive lead of 10 goals in the third quarter. We decided to play versatility in the last quarter for the girls to experience other positions and to show sportsmanship.. We still managed to win the game comfortably. An impressive win with a great performance by all. Well done girls and a special mention for G Goldstein for great play in her first match in the year 9 netball team.
