Apologies for the lack of updates recently - we have been desperately trying to sort things for the move to Medway Park.  Players/parents should have received a letter from me via their coach explaining where we’re at with everything.  Please email me if you haven’t received it.

Thanks a lot,

Jesse

The Canterbury High School Boys Under 19 basketball team have reached the semi-final stages of the British Colleges Elite National Cup.  They reached the semi-finals with a comprehensive 69-43 victory away to Truro College in Cornwall. Having defeated Brighton and Hove in the previous round, Canterbury were drawn away to Truro for the quarterfinals.

Men

The men have endured a difficult season to date.  After starting the season full of optimism and aiming for promotion, they have fallen far short of expectations.  After losing their first 6 league games, Mads Olesen decided to step down as head coach, ending a two and year tenure.  James Vear was given the head coaching position and picked up a win in his first game defeating fellow strugglers, Plymouth Marjon.  A loss to Brixton in the final game before Christmas left the men 1-7 and in 9th place - just out of the relegation spots at the break.

Sorry for the delay in getting information out - we have been working very hard behind the scenes to sort things out as we wait for the completion of the new hall.

We will continue to train at Simon Langton for the first 3 weeks of January (starting Wednesday 6 January).

We will update you with further information as soon as we can.

The Crusaders Basketball Academy based at The Canterbury High School picked up their third consecutive win in the British Colleges Elite Division as they thrashed Coulsden College 88-36.  A dominating defensive performance was the key to victory, which was acheieved despite 4 of their top 8 players (Kalil Irving, Gary Noakes, Dave Tait and Ryan Palmer) not being available.
