Year 3/4 Basketball - 17/10/24

On Thursday 17th October, 9 children from Year 4 participated in a locality basketball tournament and were then split into two teams. At this event, there were 11 total teams and the atmosphere was fantastic!  

Both teams participated in 5/6 group games against other schools. For many involved, this was a first competitive event and for others this was a first time playing basketball! It was excellent to see the enthusiasm from all as they participated in the games and all children will walk away having learned something. 

In terms of results, both teams performed admirably. EPJS 1 went through to a play-off round and finished 8th! EPJS 2 played and won their semi-final before going on to win their final too! The highlight of the event being the cheering on from EPJS 2 of 'Mighty Oaks' during the final.

Yours in sport,

Mr J Etherington - PE Lead
