We’re delighted to share some exciting news from the county basketball competition! Last night, our Year 11 boys faced Longridge and, although we didn’t win, we later learned they’ve been county champions for the past three years, which gave us plenty of encouragement.

 

On this night, the team were outstanding! They secured a fantastic 58–34 victory against Armfield Academy, Blackpool, possibly our first ever county basketball win!

 

Ryan, Bobby, and Martins were the driving force behind the performance, and all three were exceptional. Every player contributed to the score, which was brilliant to see. A special mention goes to Elliot, our youngest star, who scored three baskets in the final quarter.

 

As you can imagine, the boys were thrilled with the result and celebrated on the journey home with some enthusiastic singing of Wonderwall.

 

We now have one fixture remaining against Kirkham Grammar School, giving us a great chance to qualify for the quarter-finals.
