East Kent Crusaders 62             Sevenoaks Suns 72

One of the coaching performances of the week must have been that of James Vear who had only seen his Sevenoaks Suns team for 90 minutes before they took to the court against East Kent Crusaders in the Under 14 Cup. His appointment was due to the resignation of the head coach whose sudden change of work commitments had made it impossible for him to continue.

Despite this he was able to inspire the players to a well deserved win against an experienced side that was expected to progress to the next round.

Led by Peter Fleming and Sami Gad they never gave up, and this quality will stand them in good stead as the season progresses. Coach Vear said “I am lucky to have a group of players who all work for each other, and who can execute plays with hardly any practice. I am sure we can now build on this for the future.

"By the end of the game I knew all the players names !”

Scorers: P Fleming 26, S Gad 17, T Longbottom 9, W Surrey 7, A Roser 5, S Hunt 4, M Vosper & P Giddings 2.
