East Gippsland Basketball

Year 7-10 Girls team:

We did really well seeing as though we had one training session before hand, we will train up and get them next time. We lost both games but scored 4 points against Lakes Entrance. If we train for next year we could be a real threat to the other teams and they won’t know what has hit them. #droppingbasketssince1998

Year 9/10 Boys team:

The boys did very well against tough opposition, especially considering we only had one training session. Our opponent forfeited the first game, so we had a practice match with the year 7s. In the second game we lost to a fairly good Nagle team but did manage to score some points. With some practice this team could be really good and might be a threat for the title next year.

Yr 7/8 Boys team: We had three grade 7/8 boys it was really hard as some were sick and some pulled out, but luckily we had two year 9s and won two games one was the Lakes Entrance and the other wasn’t there because they didn’t show up, but we also loss to Nagle. There score was 10 points and ours was 6 points, it was rough but we had fun and got to see the other teams play and go to have Subway, McDonald’s, and Peppers. So us grade 7/8s had fun and we’d like to do it again sometime and play

more basketball games.

Tyson: Dropping some baskets

Demi: BARKAAAAAA

Harry: we fly as one   BAKKAAARRRR #qualitybanterfeatbezza #cheekynandoswiththelads

Mitch: Nagle is annoying.

Archie: It was a fun day. Next year we will win.

Malakai: We did our best and maybe next time we’ll be dunking some more hoops

Brodie: It was heaps of fun playing Bball with Tyrone, next year we will dominate

Laurel: Really fun day. Everyone did really well. We will win next year and we will beat Nagle. BAKKKKKAAAARRRR

Jacqueline: It was a really fun day, everyone played really really well and hope to do it again next year. Go Pelicans!!!

Hannah: Such a great experience getting to play a different sport, Mr Berry was an awesome coach!

Jacob: “It doesn’t matter if they’re behemoths, no shut up Archie. It doesn’t matter because we can’t lose no matter what. We always win in spirit.

Rhys: Playing against Naegle made me realise how much harder I have to practice if I ever want to compete on their level. Sure it was demoralising, but how else can you learn how far you have to go and how hard you have to try.

On behalf of Bailey: Bailey hit a 3 point play (foul 2 pts, then hit the free throw), then a 2 pointer, to top score with 5 pts in one game. Awesome!

State Surfing Titles

Mallacoota P-12 College State Surfing Titles 2015

On the 29th of April, 7 secondary students (Alanna, Hannah, Chiara, Brodie, Tom, Michael and Noah) from Mallacoota P-12 College left for Torquay to compete in the annual State surfing titles. On Friday the 1st, we competed in the teams event against other public schools in Victoria. Mallacoota came 6th overall in the team events. The Singles titles were on Saturday and Sunday. Noah, Tom and Brodie all competed in the singles titles. Noah and Tom did really well against the level of competition in their heats. Meanwhile Brodie came 2nd in the Under 19s girls final. Over all it was a great experience, so thankyou to Mr Berry for organising; Kathy and Marty Scott for driving us there and back.

Michael: The trip was such a great experience. It was really good surfing different breaks that we hadn’t surfed before, as well as visiting renowned breaks like Bells and Bird-rock. But the highlight for me would have to of been the Rip curl outlet store, such good bargains!

Brodie: I had a really great time surfing and finding new waves at a different break and surfing with the great group of people who I travelled down with. The competition probably wasn’t my favourite bit of the camp but the free surfs were wicked. I look forward to next year!

Hannah: I had heaps of fun on the trip surfing new breaks and shopping. Hanging out with everyone on the trip was a blast as well.
I thought the whole trip was so much fun and a great experience.

Alanna: I dint want to leave! I’m so thankful that I got to share and experience the magic of Torquay with all these energetic motivated sea monkeys. A huge thankyou to Kathy and Marty Scott for making the trip so warm and homely.

Tom: it was so much fun. I liked the free surf at 13th beach. That could not of happened without Mr berry, Kathy, Marty, all the sponsors, parents and the students that went. Thanks

Chiara: The trip was really fun and I had a lot of fun even though I didn’t surf much it was still a pretty good experience , and I am sure everyone else had a great time . I can’t wait to do it again next year .

Noah : I had fun surfs, and met up with some friends from different places, and had the best souvlaki of my life. All round it was  great fun.

A huge thankyou to all our local sponsors, with your support we were able to attend…and come 6th in the State. Thanks a lot!
