Champions!
On Friday, six children from Stanhope visited the Vertu Motors Arena in Newcastle to compete at half time for the Hoops4Health South Tyneside Champions 2025 trophy.
The children played St Bede’s in front of thousands of Newcastle Eagles supporters and it was St Bede’s who scored the first basket, taking the lead. Stanhope kept their heads held high, showing great teamwork, and it was Ryan who scored our first basket putting us back in the game. As it was getting closer to the final whistle, the children did everything they could to try and score another hoop but the match ended on a draw, therefore taking it to a nail-biting shoot out.
It was Ryan and Ava who were up for the challenge. St Bede’s missed their first hoop, Ryan stepped up to the challenge and scored. St Bede’s scored their second shot and it was Ava’s turn, she accepted the challenge and scored making Stanhope Primary the Hoops4Health South Tyneside Champions 2025! A great victory and we will play again in the Champion of Champions Finals.
Congratulations to the team. We are incredibly proud of all of the children for their hard work and commitment to training. Thank you to all of our fantastic supporters made up of family and friends, as well as staff.

CHAMPION OF CHAMPIONS BASKETBALL FINALS 2024
Well done to our super seven basketballers⛹️‍♀️⛹️‍♂️, who having won the South Tyneside Finals in March progressed to compete against the other 5 area winning teams. It was a high class event with some talented players on display.
In our first match, despite dominating play and having many opportunities to score could not quite find the basket we so desperately deserved, before conceeding in the final 3 seconds, against the run of play against Northumberland Champions Ovingham Middle School (0-2).
Next we bounced back with a convincing performance to run out 10-0 winners vs. Sunderland Champions Richard Avenue. Lee-Jay scoring a hatrick, Corey and Lucas scoring 1 basket each.
In our third match we didn’t perform to our best losing 4-0 to Newcastle Champions St. Alban’s.
But in our final two matches we raised our game, marked very well and created lots of attacking opportunities. We won 8-0 vs. North Tyneside Champions Ivy Road, Lucas scoring 2 wonderful layups, Oliver and Lee-Jay scoring too.
In our final game we won 4-0 vs. Gateshead Champions Glynwood with Rhea and Corey scoring 1 basket each.
Sadly it was not quite enough to progress, despite having scored the most baskets in the tournament convincingly, as well as the best goal difference, we were ranked 3rd.
In an uneventful final St. Alban’s won 2-1 on a penalty shootout vs. Ovingham Middle, after a 0-0 draw.

St. Alban’s (Newcastle)
Ovingham Middle (Northumberland)
Stanhope (South Tyneside
Ivy Road (North Tyneside) 4th
Glynwood (Gateshead) 5th
Richard Avenue (Sunderland) 6th

Congratulations to our team – so proud of your efforts and dedication to training over the past 4 months.

🟢🟡SOUTH TYNESIDE HOOPS 4 HEALTH BASKETBALL FINALS🟡🟢
Wow what a night! Our seven brilliant basketballing superstars were crowned champions in what was a sintalating performance ⛹🏻‍♂️🏀⛹️‍♀️.
On Friday 8th March our 7 remaining A Team pupils competed in the Hoops4Health Finals at the Vertu Motors Arena, Newcastle. It was wonderful to watch the North Stand of Sport Central steadily filling up with 50 members excited families, staff and friends from Stanhope. This was lovely to see our community, getting behind the team in a big finals event! Our players were really motivated to play in front of so much support, and give their very best.
In the semi finals we face multiple past champions St. Bede’s South Shields. We scored an early basket via Dakota. Then the game was end to end. We had many close shots and runs at the hoop. But couldn’t add a second. St. Bede’s then scored an equaliser. We pushed hard to dominate the final minutes and a winner looked likely. Zac finally scored the winner on the buzzer (nail biting stuff 😬🙌🏻), to give us the 4-2 victory.
At half time in front of thousands of Newcastle Eagles supporters we played Forest View in a shortened Final. Lee-Jay scoring the early basket as we dominated the entire match to lift the trophy. Winning 2-0.
This is our first victory in this tournament and now we will play after Easter in the Champion of Champions Finals.
Congratulations to the team. Your hard work and dedication has paid off. But there’s more to come… Thank you to all of our tremendous supporters, made up of family and friends, as well as staff.
A night to remember 🏆🥇⛹🏻‍♂️🏀⛹️‍♀️👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
