TGC Premier Basketball Finals

Basketball —

TGC Premier Basketball Team faced a highly rated Mt Senior Girls team in the final.

TGC Prems were always the underdog and preseason were never fancied to place higher than 5th. A steady season of trainings, strong coaching and building whanaungatanga within the team resulted in an appearance at the finals. An amazing first half saw TGC Prems surprising everyone by leading at half time, but a classy Mt Senior Girls team displayed the experience and depth of basketball caliber they currently have, winning the final. Thank you to our super coaches Jeanna Cooney and Manuel Kahura for motivating and inspiring a sense of ‘can do’ in our girls. 

We farewell our two Year 13 leaders, Lucy Jensen and Shanay Talopau and wish you every success in the future. Ngā mihi to our Teachers in Charge, Pam Jones and Joseph Wright.
