The KPMG 14 and under basketball leagues wrapped up last week with two teams emerging as champions.

On the girl’s side, Cayman Prep A secured the championship title with a narrow 16–14 victory over First Baptist on Monday, 23 March.

“Cayman Prep A executed well on both ends of the floor, maintaining composure in key moments to secure the victory and cap off an impressive run to the championship. First Baptist also put forth a strong effort, demonstrating the depth of talent within the league,” said the Cayman Islands Basketball Association.

“The final was a showcase of talent, determination, and growth, with both teams delivering an energetic and competitive performance. From the opening tip, it was clear that the young athletes were ready for the big stage, displaying skill, teamwork, and resilience throughout the game,” the basketball association added.

This year’s competition featured 22 teams from both public and private schools.
