Girls Basketball Season 3 Update

Junior Girls (Yr 7-8) Update:

The Junior Girls basketball team wrapped up their season with a 3-3 record, just falling short of a finals spot. Although they didn’t make it all the way, the team demonstrated impressive heart and determination throughout the season, showing significant growth and strong teamwork in every game. From fast breaks to solid defence, every player made valuable contributions to the team’s performance. The girls should be incredibly proud of their progress, as they have laid a fantastic foundation for the future. With such talent and commitment, the outlook for this group of athletes is bright!

Intermediate Girls (Yr 9-10) Update:

The Intermediate Girls basketball team finished the season with a dominant 5-1 record, securing 1st place in their pool. This earned them an exciting quarterfinal match against Emmaus Catholic College, where they triumphed 39-22, advancing to the semifinals! From the very beginning, the team displayed exceptional teamwork, solid defence, and unshakeable determination. They pulled ahead in the second half and held on to their lead, maintaining control until the final buzzer.

With the semifinals fast approaching, the team is more motivated than ever to push forward in their quest for the championship. Congratulations to all the girls on an outstanding season so far, and a huge thank you to the parents who continue to support the basketball program here at St Andrews. Your commitment, time, and effort in attending training and supporting the team mean the world. A big thank you also to Mr Carlos, Miss Bade, Mr Alata, and Dr Kennaugh for their ongoing support of our students’ sporting endeavours. We wish the team the best of luck as they prepare to compete against Catherine McAuley next week!
