BASKETBALL Football completed, the students turned towards asketball as a form of entertainment for the following lonths. Those who were eligable and wished to play lasketball were given their chance and Mr. Little picked i team. Because of the vast distances practices were lard to arrange and therefore, not much practising was lone. Blaine Lake High School asked the Composite team ilong with the North Battleford team, to come and show ,h$m the fundamentals of basketball. The Composite team iccepted and set out for a fine trip.. After demonstrating jasketball fundamentals, a supper was served to the teams, followed by a game between Composite and North Battleford. After Christmas Exams a few players were unable to ;tay with the team and new players had to be trained. Ir. Little handled this well. The new players learnt fast and in a couple of weeks practices were getting etter. A major drawback to the team is the lack of ' egulation baskets and backboards.. Without these the xractice we have in shooting is of little use. although ie had many drawbacks we also had a fine team. With a fine coach like Mr. Little the players ■forked hard to give him results. They acquired third xLace in the city league and also won the right to- go to Kyle by defeating Rosthern. At Kyle we represented the forth Central district. This ends this years Basketball but we are looking forward to a better year next year with a young team coming up.
