# Year 7 Girls Basketball Plate Final Winners

The Year 7 Girls Basketball team played their first full game of basketball - playing four 10 minute quarters - and what a game it was!

The plate final was against a strong Millfield team, who had a few tall players which the girls struggled with in the first quarter going 4 points down.  During the next two quarters the score stayed similar, with the GCA Girls being 4 points down.  However, in the last quarter the girls played a strong defence, with impressive steals and the ball falling perfectly through the hoop which sealed the win by 4 points!

The girls were a credit to the school and showed great spirit to win from behind in their first ever taste of Girls Basketball! Well done!
