The Government Secondary Schools Sports Association (GSSSA) resumed its sports calendar year yesterday with basketball being played at the C.I. Gibson and D.W. Davis gymnasiums.
GSSSA President Varel Davis said that they are having a good season so far and are happy to resume the sporting activities with basketball.
“We had a good cross-country and volleyball season,” Davis said. “We are having an exciting basketball season so far having played two weeks before breaking for Christmas. Everyone was excited to resume the season yesterday. There is no clear-cut champion this year as it is highly competitive this season in both the junior and senior schools.”https://1f79e3a799e2c195b5266ee513f61f29.safeframe.googlesyndication.com/safeframe/1-0-40/html/container.html
“We are looking forward to a highly competitive season with the other sports. The coaches and athletes are working hard in preparing their teams to participate in the activities. The sports calendar is on schedule and we are hoping that it stays that way,” Davis said.
This year is the GSSSA’s 30th anniversary year and Davis said they have a celebration planned for past administrators and coaches.
After basketball, track and field will climax with the GSSSA Track and Field Championships set for February 28 to March 1 at the old Thomas A. Robinson Track and Field Stadium. That will be followed by cheerleading, baseball/softball, and soccer.
