Year 8 Basketball

By Java Lauterboom

This year, our Year 8 basketball team had an amazing season! It all began with tryouts, where Mr Atrache, our coach, selected a team of 10 players. Everyone gave their best effort, and once the team was chosen, we started preparing for the Division Basketball Competition.

The division day was a great experience, and our teamwork paid off — we played really well and were thrilled to make it through to the next round. At the Regional Championships, the competition was much tougher, with some incredibly strong teams from other schools. Even though we didn’t make it to the state finals, it was still an awesome day filled with great games, teamwork, and fun.

Overall, it was a great experience for the team, and we’re really proud of how well we played together.
