To the public and hearty supporters of the firefighters.
I am regretted and truly disappointed to bring you this news.
After the physical live r**e show and bucket extravaganza win over T.G.O.M Kavanagh basketball team, in a joint decision from basketball otago and Kavanagh college I James McDonald have been let go of my responsibilities as head coach, shortly followed by the banning of the firefighters Kavanagh college basketball team.
After a season of 6 wins and zero losses, our talents of Tim Morrisons 3 pointers, Liam Goods air ball free throws and Captain Reeves thug like street fighting we will no longer be witnessed on the courts of Edgar centre.
The Fire Fighters have been wrongly accused of foul play and bringing a 'bad atmosphere' to the games we compete in. We have had several meetings with the board and no convincing was taken to consideration at all. Kavanagh College Sport management have came to the conclusion that we will be pulled out of the C grade competition, Indeed we do feel hard done by.
If anyone is open to a organised game, please get in contact. But, as we are too physical and give absolutely zeeero f***s we will never play in a basketball otago social grade again.
