U20 Men Win Hula Hoops National Cup Final.

OH YES THEY DID! 
A great performance from these lads showed great staying power and real grit to dig deep and hold the lead all the way to the final buzzer. The guys all stepped up when needed. It ended up being a real nail biter at the end, but the KUBS guys looked comfortable most of the time.What a great job was done by Coach Andy Flood over the last three years, bringing these guys to this level and not forgetting the great support from the main man Frank Flood who has also made many sacrifices in personal time over these years.  And well done to Eoin McCann on getting the MVP award. (Thanks Alex Troy, you did a great job wrapping up those ankles.)
Congratulations to all and hard look to Moycullen who put in an amazing performance and a come back. Unfortunately the clock ran out on them.

KUBS U13 Girls Rock on to next Round in Cup

12 Seconds to go 37 points each on the board against a spirited Meteors side playing at home. Nip and tuck all the way throughout the whole game. At 12 Seconds from final buzzer. Ross McCann after a hard nights work called a time out. Ball was in KUBS possession. The coach instructed his team on what was too happen. Ball came into Siobhan's hands, she pivots, the KUBS players spread the floor. Meteors defence parted like the Red Sea and Siobhan had a clear path to the basket and scored a winning layup.  Eight seconds to go, Meteors ball handler was bringing it up the court to meet Emily on the half way line. Emily whipped the ball away caught it and scored the basket that hit home the win. Ross put a tall side out for the first quarter with Kate, Madelyn, Oname, Niamh and Emily scoring for us.
Second quarter the speed merchants Aoife and Sadbh, no sign of sore ankle for Aoife.  Melinn, Ailbhe and Siobhan being strong and solid in defence and winning great ball at both ends of the court. Kate and Colleen came on in the third quarter and both played well to put KUBS a point ahead starting the 4th quarter. Kate had to come on for Aoife in the 4th quarter and played really smart basketball. Siobhan scored the winner in this tight game and Emily secured it. It was a great game from Meteors who have some very stylish basketballers.
All KUBS girls played a great game. Though some parents mentioned themselves about having heart pains for the last 15 seconds. A win helped them get over it.
Thanks to Ross, manager Dave and the girls for a great afternoon of sport.

U14 Girls Win Away

Sunday afternoon in Killiney and our under 14s girls got their 1st win of the season. Right from the tip our girls seemed up for this one, with Emily P on point and Hollie on the boards at both ends, as the 1st quarter finished with KUBS up 6-12. Enter Emma who along with Shauna and Madeline had the quarter of her life she just couldn’t miss. Although raiders tried as hard as they could the KUBS girls were not going to give their lead away easily. Coach Bernard rotated his squad to great use, with strong displays from Ailbhe and Katie and some great layups from Aoife and Emily B in control of the court it was left to Niamh to score the last two baskets to give KUBS the win with a final score 20-43.
Well done to Bernard and manager Sinead and all the girls keep up the good work.
