PE News: Woodlands Basketball Finals – Mixed/Open Basketball!

After a dramatic victory against Westmeadows Primary in the final round earlier this year, our Mixed Basketball Interschool Sport team earned their place at the Woodlands Basketball Finals, held at Craigieburn Stadium.

Our team, consisting of Harvey, Leo, Joseph, Noah D, Mason, Jonah, Blake, Ben, Oliver, Jude and Hudson, faced tough opposition from Greenvale, Craigieburn, Gilgai Plains, Broadmeadows and Sunbury West. Every game was highly competitive, and our team gave everything they had, showing determination, teamwork and a willingness to keep fighting until the final whistle.

Unfortunately, the results didn't fall our way. However, the players should be extremely proud of their efforts and the way they represented School of the Good Shepherd throughout the competition.

Making it to the finals was an achievement in itself, and the experience provided our students with a fantastic opportunity to challenge themselves, develop their skills and enjoy competing against some excellent basketball teams.

Of course, no basketball finals day would be complete without a well-earned, cold slushie to celebrate the journey! The players enjoyed a refreshing treat after a big day on the court and reflected on what they had achieved together.

A big thank you to all the parents and families who came along to support and encourage our team. Your support is always appreciated and helps make these sporting opportunities so special for our students.

Well done to our Mixed/Open Basketball team! You represented SoGS with pride, gave your best and showed great sportsmanship throughout the day. 

Congratulations on a fantastic journey to the Woodlands Finals!
