Parochial have again performed to a high standard in sport, this time in the Y4/5 Basketball tournament. We were narrowly beaten (after 2 lots of extra-time) in the final!
Well done to Matthew, Matthew, Daniel, Ben, Alice S, Mollie T and Olivia - our mighty squad!
Our results:
Parochial 8 - 0 Parkhead A (MFx3; DS) - a good confidence booster!
Parochial 0 - 0 Glynwood B - we shot about 20 times and it just wouldn't go in!
Parochial 6 - 6 Oakfield A (MFx2; DS) - a very exciting game!
Parochial 6 - 0 Front Street B (DSx2; MC) - our best performance perhaps?
Semi-final
Parochial 4 - 0 Oakfield A (MF; DS)
Final
Parochial 6 - 6 Front Street A
Thanks to the Whickham School & Sports College and to Billy of course.
Also, we once again had some (excitable) parents watching - your support is always valued!
Well done team - we look forward to the Y6 tournament next year!

It was very exciting, in the final. We tried really hard and played two lots of extra time. But they beat us by three baskets in the last set. I thought we did extra well because of the size of our school.

I thought that we did very well, we were very unfortunate not to win the final after 2 rounds of extra time! The team played very well. All of our wins were by a very high score. Unlucky this time watch out for us next year!
