IISSAC Basketball 2016 Results
A weary group of basketball players and coaches arrived at school today following very strong performances at the IISSAC Basketball competition in Surabaya. The girls were very proud of their performance in defence, holding the top teams to some of their lowest scores, though they found scoring a challenge with plenty of shots put up, but not finding the basket. The boys fought hard playing a very strong game against eventual champions BAIS, but found themselves outsized in most games.
With both boys and girls making it to the semi-finals, the overwhelming feeling of the players was that it had been an immensely fun and rewarding tournament.
Congratulations to 2016 champions: Mountainview in the girls, and Bandung Alliance in the boys.
Big thanks must go to the coaching team of Mr Wilson, Mr Hopkins and Ms Ellem for the wonderful job they did in preparing the teams and in looking after them throughout the weekend.
Full reports from the coaches will follow.
