Basketball Finals in the NBA
Both the Boys’ and the Girls’ basketball teams played their league finals in the National Basketball Arena in Tallaght on Friday 22nd November. First up were the boys, who faced the much improved Hansfield Educate Together. Despite a stellar performance and an outstanding display of skill and determination, they were beaten by the highly impressive opposition 46-33.
Next up, the girls took on Adamstown Castle Educate Together. Our side had a very strong start with some early scores giving the team confidence and momentum. The progress that has been made by this team over the past few months’ training has been outstanding and it was on full display throughout the game. In the end, our girls defeated the opposition with an impressive score line of 16-3 and were highly deserving of this victory. The boys provided some brilliant support from the stand!
Both teams did D7ET extremely proud and conducted themselves with respect and sportsmanship throughout the day. They have been a pleasure to coach over the past few months and we look forward to reconvening in the 3rd term, when hopefully they will progress even more! Comhghairdeas sibhse go léir!
