An epic Dub on the road last night! 🥳🧙‍♂️

With a small team the Merlins travelled up to redeem last weeks narrow loss at home and more than achieved it with a big score playing with composure and every player linking up playing lovely basketball with solid defence to go with it!

We broke a club record with highest points scored in a game 📈

Congrats to Tommy with MVP chalking up a massive 34 points he was unstoppable in the paint! 💪

Another busy schedule next week with 2 games on the cards so looking to take this momentum with us!

🏀 GAME RECAP: Major Merlins vs ABC Gwent🧙‍♂️
D3 | Home | LMLC | 17/03/26

A close contest at LMCC saw the Merlins come up just short against ABC Gwent, falling 64–59 in a hard-fought battle that stayed competitive right through to the final buzzer.

Quarter Breakdown ⏱️
📊 Q1: 12 – 11
📊 Q2: 16 – 17
📊 Q3: 12 – 12
📊 Q4: 19 – 24

The Merlins edged the opening quarter and kept things tight through the middle of the game, matching Gwent bucket for bucket 🪣🔥. Heading into the final period it was anyone’s game, but a late push from the visitors proved just enough to take the win.

🌟 Merlins MVP: Chris Kelly🌟
Chris put in a big shift for the Merlins, bringing energy, leadership, big blocks, and key plays on both ends of the floor 💪🏀 — a well-earned MVP performance.

🙌 Huge thank you to our Home Game & Match Day Sponsor – Pier Recruit
Your continued support helps keep Merlins basketball thriving — we truly appreciate it! 💙

After the game the squad headed back to our home turf The Blacksmiths Arms - Llanmaes🍀 for a Guinness to celebrate St Patrick’s Day — and maybe help soften the blow of a tough loss 🍻
