Earlier today, our Y5/6 Basketball team returned to the courts at Nottingham Trent University; competing in what was Whitemoor's fourth consecutive City Finals. 

 

This time around, the opposition were of a much better standard compared with the teams in our heats… 

 

After an impressive 10-1 victory against Southglade, we went on to lose to South Wilford by a single point (9-10), then draw with Windmill 11-11. Following losses to our local rivals Old Basford and Southwark, we beat William Booth 6-2 - but ended the tournament with another defeat (against Claremont).

 

As the medal positions were read out, Whitemoor discovered that they hadn't finished in the top three. However, to get this far was still a great achievement. 

 

Now we turn our attentions to the Central Venue League, held at Ellis Guilford in Mach.  

 

The Y5/6 Basketball team for the finals were: Aiden L, Mason T, Jahkyi C, Brian D, Jayden R, Elhadi M, Sahnairi P, Mariah-Lace A, Kamara J and Amelia B.
