In the second week of January girls from classes Vth and VIth of our school were competing with each other in the basketball tournament. Each team, representing one class, had to have 7-10 players, its own name and the same item of clothing, eg colour of the T- shirt. There were five teams that decided to play in the tournament: ‘Spice Girls’, ‘Dolls’, ‘Devils’, ‘NBA Girls’ and ‘Black Angels’.
All the teams had to play with each other on the arranged schedule. The girls played four parts, each lasting for five minutes. Each match was refereed by two PE teachers and according to the rules of Polish Basketball Union.
The players were very much involved in the tournament, very punctual, observing carefully other matches of their opponents, fighting fiercly for each ball, supported by fans, their parents, boys from their classes and even younger children from our school.
The team of ‘Black Angels’ won the whole tournament. All the teams got diplomas and the three best, the medals.
The tournament was conducted by Miss Marzena Stankiewicz, the teacher of PE. She invited the girls for additional basketball trening, twice a week, during the winter break.
