# Yr 5/6 Basketball

  ![](https://files.schudio.com/thepalmeracademy/images/news/basketball_yr_5_-_6_L.jpg)   5 April 2019

Our Yr 5/6 Team took part in their round 1 fixtures for the Reading school games 2019 league. The team showed positive dribbling and attitude throughout and produced good performances in a tough round of fixtures. Our ability to win the ball back from the opposition was noted and the effort that went into the defensive part of the game was very impressive from out Basketball team. The experience gained from these fixtures will be very valuable to our team for this year’s league matches.
