On Tuesday 15th November two mixed teams from Chilcote played in a mixed basketball tournament at Kings Heath Boys School. The tournament took place indoors and eight teams entered. The schools were split into two groups and the winners of each group would make it to the final.
The yellow team from Chilcote played in group B. They started with a game against Yardley Wood B and drew the game 2v2 despite having lots of chances. In their second game they played against The Oaks and won 4v0. Finally, they played against Allens Croft and really found their finishing touch winning the game 18v0.
The Light blue Chilcote team played in group A. They came up against some really good schools. In their first game they played against Yardley Wood A and lost 6v0. Then, they played Hollywood and lost 12v1. Finally, they played against Bells Farm and lost 6v0.
The yellow team qualified for the final against Hollywood. Hollywood dominated the early stages but Chilcote took the lead and went into half time 2v0 up. Straight from the restart Hollywood equalised and then quickly took the lead. They were 6v2 up with a couple of minutes to go. Chilcote managed to get one basket back and then with virtually the last throw got an equaliser to take the game to extra time. Hollywood eventually won the game on a golden basket.
Well done to both teams on a fantastic effort and for representing the school so excellently!!!
