To qualify for the NSW State Cup Basketball competition, UCHSK Year 9 student Bec Haisman's Canberra team had to win their regional competition which involved three weekends of games covering Southern NSW ( Albury, Wollongong, South Coast and Wagga) before a fourth weekend for the Finals. Bec's team beat fellow UCHSK student Zoe Kershaw's team in the Semis but Zoe's team then narrowly beat Bec's in the Grand Final and as a result a combined team was sent to the State Cup.
They had to win all 3 pool games against the top teams from the other regions across NSW, including metropolitan teams, to make the Grand Final. The Grand Final was against Bathurst and took 1 hour and 40 minutes but they got up by two points in a very exciting game and won the NSW State Cup. Well done!
Thanks to sister of the year, Jodie who took this photo of Bec holding the trophy they won at the Basketball NSW State Cup.
