Basketball update - 18 June

Wentworth Lions
The Wentworth Lions played the Whangaparaoa College girls' team on Monday, which were short on players and ended up being a mixed gender team. Wentworth won 21-11 and although Wentworth did get a bit too excited at times and played too quick, the team still came out with a solid win.

Wentworth Gators
The Wentworth Gators played the Kingsway Legends and came away with a 32-18 victory.  The Kingsway team were quite tall, which was a challenge for the team, however the Gators' superior ball movement and structure broke down the Kingsway defence effectively.  It is great to see this team playing effective, controlled basketball to take yet another win this term.

Wentworth Tigers
The Tigers played Kingsway on Monday. Kingsway are a good team and won the game. Their defence was tight so all Wentworth could do was distract them by passing and hope that an opportunity would come up.

Wentworth Bears
The Bears had a good game and won by over 15 points. The team continues to develop their teamwork and cohesion. Well done, Bears!
