Outram Red vs. St Mary’s Blue
If ever there was a game that should have been on video, this was it. The best game to watch – so exciting, nail bitingly close with the win only certain in the last quarter! The Reds well and truly came up against their toughest opponents ever. Not only was this team tall and solid but they could play miniball. Each quarter was a draw and it was through excellent teamwork, keeping a cool head to keep in control plus sheer fitness that they pulled away so solidly at the end. Talk about proud! The whole team piled on the pressure and Nicholas McA made some amazing intercepts that set up the final quarter but Player of the day went to Mitchell R for attacking and passing well, great defence and keeping calm under pressure. Score: 25/17 to Outram. YeeHA!

Yr 7/8 Basketball vs Macandrew
The yr 7/8 basketball team came up against Macandrew, a pretty tough team. Outram started of a bit messy missing lots of shots but soon began to get away on the other team. Macandrew had some strong dribblers but Outrams defence was tough. Max N did some good blocking, making it easier for for everyone to do lay up's. Celine T got lots of shots. Outram came out on top winning 46-18. Player of the day was Joseph M for great defence.

Outram Red vs. Silverstream
A slightly tougher team this week but the Reds stamped their authority right from the start. The Reds displayed good teamwork this week with some great passing into the space. They all drove consistently to the basket and it paid with the many baskets scored. Playing as a team will always be the Reds best asset along with their drive and commitment on court. Player of the day went to Georgia B for calm, steady play, good defence and reliable shooting. Score: 44/7 to Outram.

Outram School Hockey-Week 2
Turf
There was an improved performance from the turf team this week although they still went down 0-6 to a skilled Straith Taieri team in cold conditions. This has been a steep learning curve for these players, competing against teams with more experienced players. But the team work is starting to come and with more work on the positions we should start to see better things. Everyone has been making a huge effort, and the player of the day was Sam, who volunteered to put on the goalie gear, and did an awesome job for his first game there. A big thank you to all the parents and supporters who braved the conditions to cheer on the team.
Mosgiel
The Saturday morning team was unlucky to go down to Elmgrove 0-1 in what was a very even battle. We came close a number of times but their defence held on well. Everyone worked hard and the player of the day was Tyler M for his big effort and great support play throughout the game.

Overall Outram Blues dominated the game scoring every minute and came out on top 77-2.

Yr 7/8 Basketball Season Begins!
Wow! What a game. On Monday at 5:45 Outram Yr 7/8 played Portobello for our first game of the season. It was a awesome game but we all think we need a bit of shooting practice! We were ALL sweating hard by half time but came out with a pretty good score at full time 30-21 to US!! I think Max N was player of the day because he carried the ball up the court lots and did loads of defending and had some good shots.

Player of the day was Shelby B for her huge effort and great positional play.
