Congratulations to Turnbull Tornadoes Girls Basketball Teams!

The Turnbull Tornadoes basketball teams are training hard and developing their skills, team work and endurance. The week of January 9th, our junior girls hosted here at Turnbull a five team tournament including three teams from Montreal. The girls went undefeated to win the tournament.

The weekend of January 14/15, the senior girls team participated in a large nationwide tournament in Montreal and won the championship! We are very proud that all the girls performed exceptionally well. Our team went undefeated against two teams from Montreal, two from Toronto and one from British Columbia.

In January 1999, Mr. Dunn and Mr. Reid registered for the first time the Turnbull School senior girls basketball team in the Independent Schools Bantam Girls Basketball Tournament held in Montreal. At this tournament, the girls thoroughly enjoyed competing against schools from across the country. Since that date, we have annually competed in this tournament, bringing to many Turnbull girls great basketball and much enjoyment, as well as the valuable experience of billeting with Montreal students and forming new friendships. This year 12 schools competed and our girls proudly took first place in the overall tournament. Now that’s a historical moment!
