The action was fast and furious at the Grell Hull-Stevens Netball Complex on Saturday night-15th October.
It was game two of the exciting LEFCO under 21 Basketball tournament, hosted by the Nevis Amateur Basketball Association (NABA), when St. Paul’s took on St. James’ in front of easily the biggest crowd of the tournament so far.
Both teams demonstrated great ball skills and determination and it was a ding dong battle right to the final whistle, with the St. Paul’s team, looking slightly deflated at the end.
The scores do not truthfully reflect the intensity of the game.
