On Tuesday 5th February two teams of Year 6 children entered a mixed basketball tournament at Kings Heath Boys School. The two teams were called Chilcote A and B and were entered into two separate competitions.
Chilcote B played 3 other teams in their competition. In their first game they played Hollywood and lost 4v0. In their second game they played against The Oaks and drew 0v0. Finally, they played against Allens Croft and lost 4v0. The children played really well and represented the school brilliantly. They finished the competition in fourth place.
Chilcote A played against 3 other teams in their group. They started off with a game against Hall Green which they won 6v2. They then played against Hollywood and despite many chances lost the game 6v2. Finally, they played against Bells Farm and in an even game they managed to come out as 6v2 winners.
This meant that they went through to the third and fourth place play off where they played against Kings Norton. The game was quite even although Chilcote had more and better opportunities to score. The game finished 0v0. They then played a golden basket 2 minutes and neither team managed to score in that either. This meant that the two teams contested a sudden death shoot out, which unfortunately Chilcote lost. Still, out of eight schools they managed to finish in fourth place which is a fantastic achievement!
Well done to both teams for their excellent effort and brilliant performance!!!
