On a chilly spring day, two of the Junior Hooptime teams from our Werribee campus competed in the Regional Finals.
Our girls’ team, made up mostly of Year 3 students, took part in the Future Stars competition and faced some much taller Year 4 opponents. Despite losing all three of their round-robin games, the girls showed great determination and spirit against their bigger competitors.
Our boys’ team competed in the All-Stars division and faced some tough opposition. They won two of their three round-robin matches, with their only loss coming by just one point. Advancing to the semi-finals, the boys secured a solid win to reach the grand final—against the very team that had narrowly beaten them earlier! In a hard-fought final, they rose to the challenge, winning by five points and earning a spot at the State Championships in early December.
Well done to our young basketballers!
