We had over 100 P6 and P7 pupils playing Basketball at our first Festival of 2017-18!
There were 10 Primary Schools, with 11 teams, participating in this fun Festival.
Schools are invited to bring teams of up to 10 players for a round robin of 4 sided games against other schools from across Midlothian. This is a fun event with the focus on participation, and an opportunity for pupils who attend the Active Schools clubs to play some matches against pupils from other schools.
It was great to see so much enthusiasm, energy and good sportsmanship - not to mention some great Basketball skills on display!
In March we will hold our second Basketball Festival which will include the Competition League: this is an opportunity for schools to compete for a place in the Lothian Finals Tournament and represent Midlothian at that regional competition.
