Year 7 squad narrowly beaten in their first game

The year 7 basketball squad had their first game on Friday 19th November against Sandringham. With 17 players playing it was difficult to get into a settled rhythm but all members of the squad concentrated well and worked extremely hard against a team who were having their second game. Scores were tied after each quarter with Sandringham scoring in the last 2 minutes to edge the game 20 -18. A number of players stood out for Beaumont. Lewis Montgommery Moore and Jacob Bockenhauer rebounded extremely well, particularly on defence, and Will Moroney shot well from under the basket, scoring 6 of our 18 points. Callum Walker and Joe Byers both brought the ball down the court with control and Jay Gurney and Olivia Almond played some excellent defence. Olivia also hit two excellent shots to bring the score back to 18 all in the final quarter. The squad has real potential and improvement in one or two areas they will be very competitive both at District and County level.

Player of the Match - Will Moroney
