Skills Spotlight: Speed, Control, Precision
The Basketball Competition began with an impressive start as Grade 5–8 White House scored 18 free throws, setting a strong tone for the day. In the Grade 9–11 division, both Houses matched each other shot for shot, ending in a well-earned tie that highlighted their equal skill and focus under pressure.
The excitement continued during the Skills Competition, where students impressed the crowd with their speed, coordination, and control. First place performances came from Ekampreet Kaur in the 5–8 Girls division, Jasraj Singh in the 5–8 Boys division, Armandeep Kaur in the 9–11 Girls division, and Teg Ved Singh in the 9–11 Boys division. Ekampreet Kaur, Sofia, and Gurudain Singh each added one point to their teams for nailing their lay-ups.
Three-Point Thunder: Emanjot’s Eight
One of the most electrifying moments of the entire competition arrived during the 3-Point shootout skill showcase, when Emanjot Singh stunned everyone by sinking eight 3-pointers in one minute.
Blue House Victory: A Very Close Game
Moving into the full-court games, Blue House claimed first place in both the Grade 5–8 and Grade 9–11 matchups, showcasing strong coordination on both ends of the court. The senior game ended in dramatic fashion, with Blue House narrowly defeating White House 25–24 after thirty minutes of intense, fast-paced action.
Overall, the competition was filled with spirited play, memorable moments, and outstanding contributions from students across all divisions, making it a truly exciting event for everyone involved.
