Hoop Time Competition
On Wednesday 16 August Tintern Grammar competed in the Hoop Time basketball tournament at The Rings stadium in Ringwood. Both the boys and girls teams came up against tough opposition throughout the day but they continued to give their best effort throughout each match. The all-star girls’ team lost the grand final to Mooroolbark East Primary School in what was our best match for the day. Congratulations to the girls for competing throughout the day and not giving in against strong opposition. The team was:
The team was: Rachel Adam, Ruby Crowe, Genevieve Gough, Saskia Jackson Smith, Tiffany Mirabile, Elise Mitchell and Sophie Riddell.
The boys’ team played well throughout the day and were unlucky not to win two games, both being extremely close at the end. Their teamwork and skills were of a good standard and improved further throughout the day. The boys unfortunately lost the semi-final in a tough match.
The team was: Jack Gale, Flynn Hutchinson, Daniel Hynson, Felix Kilworth, Max Lalor, Rafi Lever, Jakob Mazonowicz, Nick Rielly, Lachlan Smith and Oliver Wolstencroft.
