Basketball’s best to play in all-star game
• By Jacob Page
THE BEST secondary school
basketball players in Canterbury
will get their chance to impress
in respective boys and girls
all-star games before the New
Zealand Breakers game at
Horncastle Arena next month.
The Breakers will host the
South East Melbourne Phoenix
on December 20.
Christ’s College’s Josh Book
and Mason Whittaker, St Bede’s
Walter Brown, Papanui’s Izzy
Orr and St Andrew’s Mac
Stodart will all take part in the
games.
The girls game will tip off at
2.10pm and the boys game will
tip off at 3.50pm followed by the
Breakers and Phoenix at 7.30pm.
The high school games come
after the Thomson and Whelan
Trophy season as well as strong
national campaigns where
Cashmere High School finished
fourth in the boys competition
and Christchurch Girls’ High
School finished eighth in the
girls’ grade.
Organiser, Joe Hammond said
the plan was to split the squads
into two even teams to produce
two even encounters.
He said squads were picked
by the top six high school boys
coaches and former Canterbury
Wildcats coach Lori McDaniel.
“It’s been a couple of years
since the game was held, but I
SPORT
think it’s a great way to recognise
the effort and achievements of
the players throughout the season,”
Mr Hammond said.
There are also plans to
livestream the two games.
“The Breakers have said the
team will try to watch the concluding
stages of the games so
hopefully it will give the kids a
big buzz.’’
