Wellington Saints vs Hawkes Bay Hawkes

I had an awesome Saturday night, I got a free ticket from Brett to go tot he Saints basketball game. I went with Brett, Diana, Emerson, A.J, Esene, Elanar, Lilly, Nikita and Josiah in the school van. WE parked along the waterfront and walked along the wharf to the TSB Arena. When we got there I was jumping out of my pants because when we walked into the TSB Arena, it was so big, and there were so many people. The Saints and The Hawks were practicing their basketball skills. It was so cool. The Saints mascot was a gorilla, he was dancing to the shuffling song. The players shoes were squeaking on the shiny, bright floor. I found out that you can guard any player and there are 4 quarters to a game. Of course  the Saints won, 88-73. The Saints rock! I sat next to Brett up the back and when Miss Lowden arrived, I sat next to her. I was my first every live basketball game and I hope I have lots more to go to.

In the cold, blue night, waiting for other people to come, eating warm hot chips, chewing and eating. Seeing everyone, we all get into the three cars and we start our trip to Wellington. We drive past the TSB Arena but cant find a parking spot. We park near the sea. We start to walk, passing the sea, I see a reflection of the lights. AS we all see a big hill, that goes up and then down. Entering into the TSB Arena, we see lots of people, we arrived just in time for the game to start! The game started, we watched for a long tim e and then the final score was 88-73 to the Saints. after that we all went home.

On Saturday night some kids from basketball went to the Saints vs Hawks game. We went in the school van. We had to walk to the TSB Arena because we parked far away from the arena. We walked along the wharf in Wellington. The water was flat and clear. The game for the Saints was easy. After the game there were a lot of people in the stadium. There was a bouncy ball on the floor and Ross threw it up and I caught it. The final score was 88-73 to the Saints.
