The Kings Park Secondary School basketball team secured their first win of the season with a hard-fought 22–19 victory away from home against Turnbull High last night.

In a closely contested match, the team showed great determination and teamwork to edge out their opponents. Standout performance of the night came from Nifemi Ayorinde (4S2), who was named Most Valuable Player (MVP) for his excellent contribution on the court.

This result marks an important milestone for the squad and is a testament to the hard work being put in by the players and coaching staff. The team is coached by Mr Ellicott, whose guidance continues to help develop both skill and confidence within the group.

Well done to all involved — we look forward to seeing how the season progresses.

On a drizzly Monday night under the floodlights, our Under-16 Boys’ Football team delivered a gritty performance to secure a 2-1 victory over St Paul’s in the Glasgow RS McColl Cup.

The match started brightly for our side, with two well-taken goals in the first half. Finlay Dougall opened the scoring after some silky build-up play, and Pieters Mayavo doubled the lead before the break with a composed finished following a world-class save from Aaron Fitzpatrick at the other end, giving us a strong 2-0 advantage heading into half-time.

The second half, however, was anything but straightforward. St Paul’s quickly pulled one back and an early red card left us down to ten men, setting up a tense finale. What followed was a masterclass in resilience and defensive organisation. Every player dug deep, and the team showed incredible character to hold firm against relentless pressure.

Special mention goes to Dillan Carroll, who earned Man of the Match honours for two unbelievable last-ditch interventions that kept our lead intact.

This hard-fought win not only secures our place in the next round but also highlights the teamwork, discipline, and sheer willpower that define this group. Well done, boys!
