Under 15 Boys make the National Finals!!
Well done to the Under 15 boys who have not only won 11 out of 11 but have now qualified for the National Finals in Nottingham on the 27th March. Last night they played Holy Trinity School from Crawley in the quarter final. In a very close game, we took a 34 - 28 lead into the half time break but then Holy Trinity fought back in the third to make it 48 - 46 to Beaumont. We maintained our lead but were only two points up with less than a minute to play. Kieron Gasstaldi Davies then drove to the basket and was fouled. To put the game beyond Holy Trinity Kieron had to hit both foul shots which, although he was under real pressure, he did and we won the game by 4 points, 65 - 61. Kieron hit 11, with Jamie Moroney (11), Aidan Gastaldi Davies (17) also hitting double figures. Our defence improved as the game continued but will need to improve further if we are to be successful in Nottingham. Congratulations to the whole squad on an outstanding season so far and being 2 games away from becoming National Champions!
