Girls Basketball

At Dublin we recognize the value of team sports in a student's life. While wins and championships are nice, the real pay-off comes through the exposure athletes gain from working together toward a common goal. Leadership skills are honed. Confidence is built. The girls' basketball team is constructed around those tenants and in the last few years especially the program has experienced a wonderful amount of popularity among the student body. In 2011, for example, 19 athletes came out for the team.

Our season, which runs from early December to the end of February, features a 20 game schedule, with games every Wednesday and Saturday. Because we're not as big some of the other programs in the highly competitive Lakes Region League, our opponents are generally junior varsity teams.

Our home games are held at Dublin's Whitney Gymnasium and school support is strong for these contests. The greatest amount enthusiasm for the program, however, comes during Winterfest in late January, when the school community coalesces around a weekend of activities that include a bonfire, pond hockey, and a pep rally at our Norm "Pro" Wright Ski Area. The entire celebration comes to an enthusiastic close with back-to-back home games for the boys and girls' basketball teams against rival High Mowing. It's a fun environment, attracting a group of dedicated students, faculty, and family members who aren't afraid to show their Wildcat pride.
