Division Summer Sport Finals
What a successful day we had on Wednesday the 16th of October! Our mixed basketball and girls volleyball teams played in the Yarra Division Summer Sport finals at Oxley College. Both teams won and will now progress to the Regional Championships later this month!
Our basketballers started the day off with a very tough match against SPJ. Tied at half time, they pulled away in the second half to win 37-27. With only ten minutes break, they then had to back up and play against Oxley College. They played another great match and won 45-7. A big thank you to Brad Pearson who stepped in as coach for the day.
Our volleyball girls played their match against SPJ. They played extremely well and won in straight sets: 15-8, 15-4, 15-8.
We are very proud of both teams and wish you the best of luck in the next round!
