JULY IS THE seventh
month of the year (be-
tween June and August)
in the Julian and Grego-
rian Calendars and the
fourth month to have the
length of 31 days. It was
named by the Roman
Senate in honour of the
Roman general, Julius
Cæsar, it being the month
of his birth. Prior to that,
it was called Quintilis –
in addition to all of that
and more importantly this
month will be the making
or otherwise of our sea-
son as the men and wom-
en play 3 double header
week-ends in a row.
This includes the Sun-
shine swing and the
Rocky-Mackay road trip. If
we come out this in good
shape then we will be ready
to finish the season strong-
ly in preparation for finals.
Make no mistake it will
be a tough month for the
Wesley Lady Caps and the
Hudor men.
Mixed results last week
against Ipswich we split
the contests. Lady Capitals
due to injury only suited up
8 players and in the end this
took its toll with fouls and
fatigue, and the men main-
tained an even game plan,
eventually winning by 22
in the end. Tonight’s game
against Townsville will de-
liver some tough matches
and as usual some great
basketball.
This coming week at Bris-
bane Basketball sees our
social competitions get un-
derway for the second half
of the year with nearly 190
teams nominated. We ap-
preciate and acknowledge
this support. In addition
to this the juniors resume
from their holidays and will
be back on court as well,
and then junior capital trials
follow soon thereafter. As
they say “Basketball never
stops” and there is always
something happening or
about to happen here at
Auchenflower.
