Salient. An Organ of Student Opinion at Victoria College, Wellington, N.Z. Vol. 15, No. 6. April 24, 1952

Why Basketball?

Why Basketball?

The team which we entered in the women's basketball had done some intensive training to try and redeem our reputation in this sport. Their defeats emphasised the high standards achieved at the other colleges.

It is about time that the question of basketball at Easter Tournament was investigated. This is a winter sport. It is the only winter sport-apart from Drinking Horn—which is contested at Easter. This is an anomalous position and although it may be of advantage to Victoria not to allow other colleges to have a longer training time (although we doubt it) basketball should properly not be part of this Tournament.
