ALSO PLEASE READ ALL THE BLOGS AS I HAVE ADDED SOME DETAILS FROM THE PLAYERS AND THE NEWS CLIP FROM CBBC. THE BASKETBALL CLIP IS AFTER THE SPACE SHUTTLE CLIP.
What can I say about these two games??? What can I say,,,The boys and girl had won 8 out of 8 and we wanted them to win 10 out of 10 but the first team that stood in the way was Cobham.If we managed to get pass them Spelthorne was waitng in the wings.
You can read Armands' take on the game.
Cobham vs. Hawks
When I first heard that we were playing Cobham, i thought "Oh no! They're good because we played them and we barely beat them in O.T."
However that didn't stop us from winning. I believe that it was a good team effort both on defence and offence. I think I did a decent job rebounding and trying to find teammates ready to score. With performances like that I think we could be a hard team to beat.
Atoms vs. Hawks
As it was our last game, I was more determined to do well than ever. Unfortunately for me, I wasn't able to turn the determination into points. I injured my ankle challenging a shot and I had to be carried out. I was deeply dissapointed when I realised I wasn't in the position to return.
It was really tough watching my teammates from the sideline when I could be helping them to win the game. However, I never once doubted that the team won't come out victorious. When the last buzzer went off, I couldn't stop smiling. I was proud of the effort my team had put in despite my abscence.
Thanks Armand.
Armand said it all. I was so proud of that team, and not just the ones who were there but our missing players as well. Without everyone playing as a team we wouldn't have made it to the end. Also coach Jeff.He got the defences moving on this team, and when I couldn't shout, thank you parents for stepping in.
This was the score from the second game which was against Spelthorne.
And not to forget Lee. He coaches the team without pay. Every session he's there teaching the team how to play. The only reason Lee couldn't be with us was because the Under14s and the U16s were all playing on April 3rd. The Surrey league as now been update, so to see the team at the top click onto the link below:

Now all the team has to do is win the cup final. I believe this is being played on Sunday 8th May. Eventhough its the Easter holidays there will be a practice seesion next Thursday (14th) at Harris, as normal. Please come and support the team at the cup final, and thanks for reading the blog.
