Towards the end of last school term, Year 10 took to the Front Hard Court in some fierce 3v3 Basketball matches. This tournament, hosted by the Tigers Sports Council, saw Lanta, Samui, Phuket and Chang battle it out in a series of fast-paced matches.

Lanta impressed with a well-coordinated team that kept the pressure on throughout. Lucas played a key role in moving the ball and keeping the team organised, while Ayaan made confident plays on the drive. Nadia consistently found space under the basket, setting herself up for reliable jump shots. On defense, Annika was a standout, disrupting the opposition’s rhythm with strong positioning and awareness. Lanta’s teamwork and positive attitude shone through, even when the games got tough.

Samui brought a strong lineup to the court, with six determined players giving their all. Joshua played with physicality and purpose, making big moves to get points on the board. Otys, Joel, and Tanwaar contributed with accurate shooting and support in both offense and defense. Caleb led communication and kept the ball moving smoothly, while Leonor and Suzie created space with smart passes and confident decision-making. Samui’s efforts made them a consistent threat across their games.

Phuket came in ready to defend their well-earned reputation. Isaac used his dribbling skills to test the other teams’ defense, creating scoring opportunities under pressure. Lochlain and Aarush worked hard under the basket, chasing down rebounds and turning them into quick points. Mila was a steady presence on the court, offering reliable support and delivering crucial lay-ups. Phuket’s fast play and teamwork kept them firmly in the top ranks.

Chang, one of the smallest teams, proved that size doesn’t determine success. Phineas showed persistence after a heavy fall, picking himself up and continuing to look for opportunities to score and push the team forward. Tyler played with confidence and made some key plays under the basket, especially in the final stages of the game. Ana added valuable support with smart positioning, passing, and teamwork. Their focus and determination helped secure them a well-deserved win.

Final Standings:
1st – Chang
2nd – Phuket
3rd – Samui
4th – Lanta, with a special mention for sportsmanship and strong team spirit.

Congratulations to all teams on a great tournament!
