Another Fun and Exciting Weekend for the U14 Girls
2015-06-02
Winning both on and off the court
This past weekend the Girls were in Sherwood Park at Salisbury High School participating in the Sabres "Battle in the Park" U15 Tournament. The Alberta Girls won both their opening matches, winning by scores of 99-18 and 76-13 In the final game of the tournament the Alberta crew played an All-Star team from Sherwood Park that was pulled together specifically to play the Alberta girls. The Park team comprised of mainly 15 and 16 year olds took a while to get going but once they did they pushed the Alberta U14 Girls hard. After four quarters of play, it was Team Alberta winning 58-39.
Coach Anstice commented on the Sabre tournament in Sherwood Park saying "it was great for team building, the tournament offered a Fun event which included all teams in a number of crazy fun relays and competitions, great way to have fun, bond and build team enthusiasm". Coach Anstice concluded by saying "we were pleased with our efforts and results, but after playing two straight weekends, it's important and time that we get back into the gym to train, work on tightening up our defence and getting into specifics within our offence". Team Alberta's next training session is back in Sherwood Park on June 5-6-7.
After team training on Saturday June 6th the U14 Alberta Girls, Coaches and Parents will participate in a team walk for cancer (Relay for Life) in Sherwood Park. A very good friend of the Alberta coaches and long time community basketball coach and CIS Official Lanny White continues to fight the disease. There will be many friends of Lanny and friends of basketball at the Relay for Life in Sherwood Park and Coach Brian thought it would be great for Team Alberta to join the cause and support Lanny in beating Cancer.
