Boarders Enjoy Trip To Watch Bristol Flyers Basketball Match

On Saturday, Westwood boarders and a number of Senior boy boarders headed to Bristol to watch the Flyers take on the Cheshire Phoenix in the British Basketball League at a packed SGS College Arena in Filton.

The atmosphere was great and very loud, and the boarders enjoyed a close match which went in the Phoenix’s favour despite a spirited fightback in the last quarter which saw the game end 63-68.

The pupils were also very lucky to have the chance to shoot some hoops on the court at half time.

Mr Mansfield (Artist in Residence) and Praeasha were the most accurate of shooters!

After the match, there was much excitement as the pupils got to get autographs and selfies with the players.
