Melville Intermediate School has been competing in the
2011 AIMS Games in Tauranga. We've been competing in
Girls Basketball against 11 other school and are one of over a hundred schools and some 4,000 students competing for the week.
Melville Intermediate Girls started the 2011 Campaign strongly with a win against local school
Te Kura Kokiri 31-22. They followed this up with their second game of Monday morning against
Kaitoa Middle School 46-36. Both these games were incredibly close games, with Melville trailing both at half time.
Tuesday morning they played their third game, against North Habour Champions
Murrays Bay Intermediate School. It was another titanic encounter, with only a four point margin seperating the two teams in the fourth quarter.
Murrays Bay proved their class in the end winning
37-27.
Melville Intermediate now take on 2009 finalists
Hastings Intermediate in their second pool game today before playing
Chisnallwood Intermediate from Christchurch tomorrow. We'll keep you posted.

ReplyDeleteThat is really cool that you have a strong competition going on. At our school we have competitions with all the other schools in our zone. Whoever wins that goes into the finals with the schools who one in their area. Well done on winning two games and I hope you win some more. Good Luck!
