One Friday afternoon our bouncing basketball team, the YMS B'Ballers, had their first game for the session. This is the second year the team have played together. Ants, the coach (Rhys' Dad), has been working hard with them on defence and offence, as well as shooting some great hoops.
The game was exciting and fast moving. We played Hillview and Toby kindly offered to play for them as they were short a player. Everyone worked hard to 'mark up' and to keep the ball moving towards our goal. Toby did say it was confusing at times to get the ball and then have to remember not to throw it to his friends.
By half time we were well ahead in points and so a few people had the new job from the coach of getting others to have a go at getting a goal ... and boy they did. There were much cheering and excitement from the sidelines as everyone shot for a hoop.
Well done team on a great win! And congratulations to Toby who not only selflessly played for the other team, he also played incredibly well for our team in the second half, scoring a magnificent goal.
Special Note: Thank you Ant & his fab crew of men who came and put in the new basketball hoop at school - Arc Projects you are fabulous and we so appreciate the time and energy it took.
