It was a special day when the Varsity Girls Basketball Team won the TIS Tournament. We went undefeated winning four games and capturing the first varsity girls championship in several years. The games took place February 17 and 18 in our gym. I’ve thoroughly enjoyed coaching the team and collaborating with coaches Yuliya and Jeanette.

  • TIS 31-17 versus Skola 208
  • TIS 28-16 versus Skola 86
  • TIS 19-10 versus British School of Tashkent
  • TIS 30 – 8 versus Skola 86

The girls are really improving and it is also a pleasure to work so closely with my daughter Ocean. We are bonding over sport! We are halfway to our goal of two championship banners. Next week we have the Central Asian Basketball Classic (CABC) and it will be much tougher with 6 teams in the varsity girls category including teams from Russia, Kazakhstan, and Kyrgyzstan. I can’t wait for the games!
