Basketball Update # 1

Now on the 4th week of the season the basketball team is well familiar with the new program. The players are now accustomed to their new roles on the team and everyone is improving each practice. Since formal training began we have had two games against Mt. Carmel and the University of Baguio and we won one and lost one. During the first game, I was able to score 29 points and grab 17 rebounds however it was not enough and we fell short and lost by 2 points. In the second game however, we were able to blow out a much better team by around 30 points. So far, I feel that I have worked well on my goals such as being a better leader on the team and guiding my team mates though at times it may have been very stressful and disappointing. As for my individual skills, I feel that I have been improving but I also feel that I have a lot more work to do so that I can be at my peak before the ISAC competition. The team has also been doing activities off the basketball court to help us improve on our overall knowledge on the sport such as game review days wherein we watch our games and discuss what we need to improve on. In the following days to come we have more games and a trip down to Pangasinan for a one day tournament against local players in the area. I hope these upcoming experiences will continue to help us improve as a team and as individuals to better our chances at winning ISAC this season.
