🏀 McDribbler Term 3 2026 🏀

Every Thursday, we had a mix competition for the Year 1-4 kids, providing them with valuable experience with real games. Our aim was for them to learn essential skills and understand the rules while having fun. Many talented young players showcased their abilities, and we hope to see them return next term.

This term, our Year 5-8 McDribbler competition showcased an abundance of promising talent from schools in Manurewa. We also witnessed numerous closely contested games, particularly on finals day.

CONGRATULATIONS TO THE WINNERS!

Here are the results from Term 3 McDribbler:

Year 7-8
1st: MI Sisters (Manurewa Intermediate) 🥇
2nd: C14 🥈
3rd: RPS Mana (Randwick Park) 🥉
4th: Te Hiringa (Randwick Park) 🏀

MVP: Delliah (Manurewa Intermediate)

Year 5-6
1st: Randwick Park 🥇
2nd: Timberwolves 🥈
3rd= MLC Cubs 🥉
3rd= TPMM (Te Pūtahi Māori o Manurewa) 🥉

MVP: Joshua (Randwick Park)

Thank you to all the Coaches & Parents for taking time out of their day to bring their kids to McDribbler.

We will hopefully see everyone next Term 🙌🏽
