Battling through a tough schedule consisting of 5 separate games in one day, Kildare finished the round robin tournament with an impressive 3 wins and 2 losses!
After a shaky start and an unfortunate bus delay that affected preparation for their first game, the players rallied brilliantly to win the last 3 games of the day. Their mighty effort puts them in contention to make it to the next round of the knockout phase!
Coach Molly Hynes had this to say about the student’s effort: "I was able to coach the amazing Year 7 Basketball team. By the 3rd game, the team began to display great teamwork gaining their first win of the day, 18-8 playing Northfield. From there, Kildare won their 4th game 10-2 playing Aldgate. For the final game, the score was close, but the team pushed through winning 13-10.
We are all so proud of the team for their exceptional sportsmanship and for representing Kildare throughout the day."
"What a fantastic effort!"
