Ballyshannon 88ers

The Northwest under 15 girls travelled to galway last weekend to play in the 2014 BIPPS. The girls played some great basketball but unfortunately came home empty handed. It was a great weekend and we would like to thanks everybody who organised the tournament and everyone had a great time.

The Under 16 Girls travelled to Scotland for a series of friendly matches in August. It was a great trip and the girls played some amazing matches. Here are some pictures from The Second match against the Edinburgh Kats  .

The U14 Girls were unlucky in Kerry over the weekend and came up against some very strong opposition in there 4 Games. The Girls put up a great fight and played very well. A selection of some photos from the weekend. If anybody has any other photos just email them to info@88ers.ie and we will get them up.

Sligo got the better start going in at half time with a good lead. 88ers came back into the game in the 2nd half and brought the game right down to the wire. Tara Duffy levelled the game with a free throw and 14 seconds left on the clock. Sligo back in possession drew the foul and got back on ...

U14 girls came out on top in a scrappy game against the Sligo all Stars. The All Stars were short a few players so some of the boys helped out to make a game of it.

U14 boys started the day vs Sligo B in a very closely fought game. The 88ers lost out by rushing their offence in the last 2 minutes giving possession back to Sligo who made no mistake with their chances. 88ers lost game by 1 but have learned a big lesson from the game.
