Basketball Notes

Basketball Notes.

New Coach for Club.

The club is fortunate in obtaining the services of Miss Phyllis Quinlan as club coach. Miss Quinlan has represented V.U.C. four times, won her N.Z.U. blue in 1933, and represented Wellington province in 1932. She is very keen, and has high hopes for next Tournament.

A Centres.

The A centres are settling down now into a steady combination, but are still somewhat unfinished in their work. Positional play needs careful attention.

N. McLaren, the most reliable of the centres, keeps position well and is always steady.

M. Pilcher works well and is a good interceptor. Fails sometimes, however, to finish off an interception, thus losing any advantage gained. Must learn not to play out of position.

D. Grainger: A promising player, but needs to bias her passes more. Should play well with more experience.

Tech. Old Girls Defeated.

Either the presence of both the past and present coaches or a promise of strong criticism in "Smad," or both combined, seemed to have a good effect on the team on Saturday. They played a much brighter and speedier game, and deserved their win over Technical Old Girls by 14-8.
