Focus Knights

I've decided that i'll also do a short review of the Focus Knights Basketball team, the players include Lindsay, Adam, Scott, Russ, Hayden, Troy, Terry, and Chris. Eight players is alot to have on your roster, but it does allow for some players not being able to play every game. It does, however sometimes mean that players might not be committed enough and result in only having four players turn up occassionally.

In part this basketball team used to be the Yorkie Yabberring Yobbos, starting off with some players from York St COC before most left for various reasons. Now only a couple attend York St.

Anyway, last monday night they played against Celtic Tigers, and led for most of the game, and at some parts were up by 15 points. The second half saw the Knight pick up 12 team fouls compared to Celtic getting 3 fouls. This meant that in the last minute, the Celtic players went to the free throw line. This allowed them to close the margin from 11 points down to 4 points at the end of the game. One of the Celtic players told me that I should wait for the ball to be in play before restarting the clock. There was about 3 seconds left on the clock when I apparently started it to soon. I thought the ball was in play. Wouldn't have changed the result anyway. That same guy I've played against in the social grades before, and he appears to be very cocky on the court. He usually scores alot of points for Celtic with a few 3ptrs during the game.

Celtic have a big guy who plays center, but really didn't score as many as he should have, seem to miss several close in shots. The final score was 43 to 39. And means the Focus Knights are in the top half of the ladder now.
