A1 CHALLENGE FIGHT'S HARD TO PASS THE LADY MARINES TEST 43:19[FULL TIME]


"If Shakespeare can compare all of life to a stage, maybe it's not odd to believe that part of the play can take place on a basketball court."

Probably not particularly in the Makerere Courts which still under the wet surface hosted quite a number of games.

Credit to the Lady Marines who really fought throughout the game, being led by Barbra-Marion who has been their most on form player scoring 11 points. Asa one of her team-mates had an equally decent game though it's clear they need more games to gain experience and confidence so they can start winning for stats sake.

The Lady Marine troopers from Constance, Barbra Marion, Jessica, Sylivia, Asa, Josephine, Connie and Olivia have to learn how to step up offense as a team and defense as a unit too.

A1 Challenge ladies have to work on their discipline off the ball and learn more and more to trust each other when sharing the ball with team mates.

And also the issue of precision in the A1 Challenge offense [score conversion], because defensively Aggie has stepped up her defensive discipline thanks to the injury that Bazira Liz has on her right arm wrist earlier in the week, pairing with Larry K.

Ntale Victoria stepping up again and leading the A1 Challenge team gunning 11 points and if your ask me, this hunger that her game together with Meg Maggie and Kakkazi Carol have brought will take them places so to speak.

Sylivia Nakazibwe and Larry K. both scoring 6 points. Sylivia having a fairly decent game especially with quite a number of steals and assists as well.

As for the play of the day, we thought it right and fitting to give it to Kakkazi Carol after faking a pass which left two Lady Marine players lost thereby giving her space to drive in for a beautiful two points late in the fourth quarter.

Couple of noise was being raised by the low points being scored, but with wet surfaces that we have thanks to the heavy down pour, one would be asking so much from the players, especially when one considers injuries and what could happen.

Notable absentees from this game were Barbra Okot, Bagiire Dorcus, Mukula Fredrikah, Lokidi Angella.

Well won ladies.
