3 B.B. Reps.
We are glad to report the complete recovery of the Women's Basketball Club. There is now an active membership of thirty players, all of whom have brought great enthusiasm to this year's activities. All three teams have been playing well, and the Senior and Intermediate have a commendable number of wins to their credit.
Proof of the increased vigour of the club and of individual ability is the fact that Julie Dean (Senior B) and June Scott (Intermediate) have been picked as Wellington reps, for 1947, and Miriam Brain (Junior) is working hard for a place. Congratulations, girls; the club is grateful for the prestige you have brought to it.
Club practice night, Monday at 8 p.m., at St. Joseph's, has been so well attended that we can boast a full two team practice weekly (almost). This has been much more satisfactory than our last year's efforts, but a great deal of credit for our improvement must go to our coach, Mr. Budden, whose skill and good nature have done much to boost the club's spirits.
But onward and upward. Next year we want at least four teams (we'll find the uniforms somehow) so anyone is welcome to come along. Keenness is the only qualification.
