The HOOPLA provincial basketball tournament will be offered in a condensed format on March 23, 2024 in Moose Jaw, much to the dismay of the participants. This is a consequence of the pressure tactics chosen by the Saskatchewan Teachers’ Federation, as part of its negotiations with the province to renew their collective agreement.

The women’s basketball team from Monseigneur de Laval school, Pavillon secondary des Quatre Vents, will play for the bronze medal against Indian Head school on Saturday at 3:30 p.m.

One of the members of the Lionesses team, Eve Ouellet, explains the disappointment that she and her teammates are experiencing as they have been preparing for this tournament for several months.
