Mature, responsible fourteen, fifteen and sixteen year olds...as you can see.
We just finished off our regular season. A pretty decent record of 6 wins, 2 losses. Today's win was strange, to put it kindly. The home team didn't have a bench to sit on, nor did they have a score sheet, or scorekeepers, to start the game. A game that was supposed to be played in quarters was played in two halves, until the clock chimed 6pm, and the public gym we were playing in lifted their nets with one minute left in the game. A slightly anticlimactic finale, especially with a score of 18-14. Yes, we were playing basketball! Ah well, the best part was that the location of the gym was a perfect picture of Hong Kong- built on the top level of an indoor wet market. We're walking by the vegetable section and I'm wondering- this is really the way to the gym? Classic use of space!!
Saturday is our first play-off game. Should be a good one! I've enjoyed this bunch a great deal- committed, eager and a lot of fun.
