Welcome... OUR SECOND home game of 3 in a row against Sunshine Coast Phoenix. First up some thanks – really appreciate the sup- port you provided to the U14 Boys Fundraising BBQ last week. In case you missed it - last week the Lady Capi- tals game against Glad- stone could not have been any closer, all tied up with about 6 seconds to go. Gladstone time- out and in possession for the last shot and on the buzzer they got the bas- ket. While exciting for the good crowd that came to watch it is always tough to go down in those cir- cumstances and from my personal experience you usually walk away saying “only if …and only if..”. The best thing is we get the chance to come back this week and test our- selves again. The men jumped out to a commanding lead in the first quarter and nev- er allowed Gladstone any chance to get back into the game eventually tak- ing the game by 45 points. In terms of performance everyone was able to con- tribute to the result. This weekend will be the second meeting between Sunshine Coast Phoenix and the Capitals Men we last met in round 2 up the coast. Both the men and women took home the chocolates, Women 72- 61 and Men 70-53. A lot of things have changed since then so there should not be any complacen- cy. The Phoenix Men are coming of their first win under new Coach Hesle- hurst last week and will be buoyed by that result. In other news our senior social competitions be- gin their season finals this coming week and we wish all of the participants the best of luck. Thanks for coming and I hope you enjoy the games. #ourteamourtownourtime #capsnation #QBL17 Trevor Lidstone General Manager Brisbane Basketball Inc.
