A Full Season of Basketball

I have completed my first homework challenge, I have completed a season of Basketball.

I am in the Under Thirteen Tauranga Reps Team, and we just competed in a competition between our region over the weekend, the teams are as follows;

  • Thames Valley
  • Waikato A
  • Waikato B
  • Tauranga A
  • Tauranga B
  • Rotorua A
  • Rotorua B
  • Central Country
To qualify to head to Dunedin in the next holidays, we had to place in the top three over the whole tournament. We were placed in two pools. We were placed in a pool with Thames, Rotorua A and Waikato B. We played Waikato B on Saturday morning, at 8am. We won that game, after a slow start. We then found out Thames Valley pulled out so we won that game by default and then had a small training session. Then, we got to our competition, Rotorua A. We took a massive lead, before they made an epic comeback. We held it together, just, before the end winning again. Soon, we were in cross overs. We then played Central Country, if we won, we would be playing off for 1st and 2nd. We ended up having a real good game, winning. We were all very excited, because we were now competing nationally. The final game we lost to Waikato A only by seven though, but we didn't care, we had already qualified and thats what counted. Now that half of the season is complete, we now move onto the more serious note.  Big future awaits us when we hit Dunedin.
