Newry Basketball Club

Newry U14 Flyer’s squad travelled to Magherafelt last Saturday to take on the Titans team.
At their last meeting newry narrowly won after a stunning second half performance to come back from a 0-14 half time score to win 16-14. This time the game was more volatile but narrow margins are how this team seems to win, and this another one of those games.

Newry Fliers U16 Boys kick-started the 2^nd half of their season on the road to Magherafelt to face the Titans in what was to be an epic clash. In their previous meeting, the Fliers won by a comfortable margin. However, missing team Captain Aaron Miller and top scorer for the game, the Fliers knew they had an extra challenge on their hands today.

Having faced a tough Blackstone side at the start of the season, Newry Fliers U16 Boys welcomed the Ballymena team on Saturday, hoping that their home court would give them the advantage.

Having won the tip, Eoin McStay opened scoring early for the Fliers. Point guard Kamil McCabe took charge of the game for his team, setting the pace at the level that suits the Fliers best, working the ball around the court and allowing for shot after shot for the home side.

Merry Christmas to all the Newry Fliers.

This year the club will be finishing training for the year on Saturday 10th Dec with our annual Santa Saturday fun day.
