Newry Basketball Club

Newry played host to Ballymena Blackstone last Saturday, and put on an great show.
Ballymena historically have a very tough team and are never afraid to press on both offence and defence. Games between the two sides have always been close exciting competitions, so there was plenty to live up to.

Only two weeks from their first meeting this season Newry Fliers faced Downpatrick Vikings again. This time with home court advantage coach Paul Crawley hoped that his young side would play the game to their strengths using their speed and run the Vikings off the bigger home court.

Sorry I didn't get these out at the time, was too busy getting ready for xmas :). Pete.

The second half of December was a busy month for the Newry U14 Squad, with 3 games in the 2 weeks running up to Christmas. First was a trip to take on the Andersontown tigers in Belfast followed by a double header against Letterkenny Blaze A and B the week before Christmas.

I'm going to use the forum from now on to put up news for organising the U14 team.
