ACS Basketball
Basketball is a fast-paced and physical sport requiring high cardiac endurance, quick movements, and excellent high-pressure decision making. It is one of a handful of sports that combines all the realms of athleticism into one, and requires an intense level of teamwork and sportsmanship to exhibit success. Despite what some people see and want to emulate in their favorite professional players, basketball is not an individual sport, and being able to work effectively as a team is the most important skill that young players can develop. Basketball enjoys great popularity among the students at ACS, and there are currently four varsity-level basketball teams in the college: two for boys and two for girls. All teams are proud of their dedication and achievements. Since the inception of the NALB Schools' League, the ACS basketball teams have proved to be highly competitive. In fact, the boys team has won the league championship twice, including the recent 2019-2020 season. The ACS basketball teams have also participated in the WBAIS International Invitational Tournament where they have performed admirably. |
