Our Senior men played last Friday against Total League opponent Walferdange. In the first quarter, energy an rhythm were missing completely to our team and Walferdange led 24-12. In the second quarter, great energetic team basketball brought us back in the game and it was a tie game at halftime (35-35). At the end, Sparta wins 75-73 (without their pro players) and it was the next step forward in the preparation for the season. Next weekend, Sparta will play 2 test games in the Netherlands (Rotterdam); new professional player Aundrey Jackson arrived yesterday in Bertrange and can join the team now.

On Friday, our Senior Women team was playing against MJC Trier from third german league. It was a close game and Trier won it by 5 72-77 at the end.

On Sunday, the girls played in Germany against german second league team BBZ Opladen. It was a very tough game against a physical stronger and bigger opponent but our girls could get important experience on a higher basketball level, which will be very important for the upcoming season. At the end, the local team wins clearly 101-46.
