Indoor Basketball, Womens

Winning only one game, the Women's Indoor Basketball team finished fourth. Canterbury was clearly superior and deserved its win.

Poor teamwork and the absence of any positive playing tactics accounted for the team's disappointing performance. These girls have been playing all season without a coach.

Their play showed no organised methods of attack and the defence, usually the team's greatest strength, constantly gave under pressure.

They were handicapped by the last-minute loss of a key player and were reduced to a tournament strength of six. This was at least two less than any other team. This meant loose guarding to prevent any player being fouled off.

The win was against Massey in an exciting game with a final score of 53-52.

Sue Jackson gained a place in the NZU team.
