We won the last match of our pool against the Dominican Convent 10-7, which was our most challenging game in our pool. 
We then went on to compete in the semi-finals and had a convincing win. 
Then we met Dominican Convent yet again in the finals and came away with a victory of 28-6.
Overall this tournament was a valuable experience for us, as well as an enjoyable one.

Basketball Tour to Johannesburg - Day 1

It was an early morning for all of us today. We arrived in Johannesburg at 8:30 this morning and came straight to the lodge. Our first game at St Peter's College started at 2:30pm. It was a tough game and our team played well, especially in the second half. We narrowly lost, with a final score of 20-21. This game was an eye-opener and good start to our weekend in Johannesburg. We hope our tournament tomorrow is just as exciting and enjoyable as today's game. Some of our statistics for the day: Sarah Fodouop - 5points, 7 defensive rebounds, 2 offensive rebounds, 2 turnovers, 8 steals
Michelle Samudzimu - 7 points, 3 turnovers, 1assist, 1 steal
