Macca’s Week Ten Picks

related links:

Another week of games at Level Two, so no uninvited spectators to any games. As usual, we will update this article with live stream links.

It’s playoff time in the #MaccasTT Division I competition! The Whelan Division I Semi-Final seedings need finalising tonight too.

Because of there being no open entry at any of the basketball games this week (starting 7 September), we will endeavour to post any live stream links for the games tonight as we become aware of them.

St. Margaret’s Hosted Ellesmere College on Monday night:
