sola Blue Stars
continue on a
roll, unbeaten so
far, having taken
all the trophies
earlier this year,
Under 14, Under 16,
Under 18 and Mens
and now still on a roll
in the league.
The impressive run of
results across the
categories places Isola
Blue Stars as the team
to beat. Only this week
alone the Under 14's
beat Europa by 53-18,
this was followed by
the Under 18's winning
74-53 against Valmar
Wrighttec. This
Thursday the Under
16's hope to continue
the unbeaten run.
Speaking to
Coresportgib David
Parody, highlighted
how proud he is of his
players, "Our
Defensive attitude is
amazing," he said, "So
far every player in both
games have scored. Its
excellent team work."
Isola Blue Star's
success of late is not
just about the sport but
the ethos behind the
team. This was clear to
see speaking to
Parody who explained
that "coaches are not
only there to help
players in a game and
teach them skills but to
educate them to
ensure they work hard
both in sports and
school."
He explained that it
was important for
teams to realise that
"the bottom of the
Pyramid is meant to
feed the top,"
something which Isola
Blue Stars seems to
have been working
hard in doing.
Isola Blue Stars
coaches have set
themselves a hard
task, but one which
seems to be working
for them as the team
continues their
success. "The first
thing we tell our kids
we win or lose as a
team and school is as
important as sport. We
get the kids to produce
time tables for school,
homework and sport
and to organise
themselves. It’s a tool
for life," explained
Parody as he outlined
the ethos that the team
follow both on and off
the courts. "What I like
is when they see us in
the future they have
good memories and
are thankful for what
we gave that has
helped them both in
sport and school."
