My name is Santianna Davy. The team I play for is UPLAY Blue.
What I liked about Rose league session one was the competitiveness and the aggressiveness.
It was a fun experience to have almost beaten the top team in rose…lost by two.
What i also liked about session one was how we got to meet two WNBA players. They both liked the way UPLAY played as a team and they gave us some tips on how we can make our game better and what we can improve on as a team.
Session one was just the statement. We are coming to take the W for session 2 can’t wait!!!!!!
I am very happy to be apart of UPLAY! It was a great accomplishment for me as a grade 7 to make a grade 8 team.
My first trip with UPLAY was to Virginia November 17-19 and it was fun and a great experience for me as a developing basketball player.
I really enjoyed playing American players because it was a different type of competition and I had never done it before.
I was glad with the results we came back to Canada with 2-1 , we represented Canada in a great way.
I love playing with UPLAY and this was a great first experience with the team. I am happy to be apart of UPLAY and DC!

I was extremely excited to be a part of 11 players selected for the UPLAY grade 7 team.
The good thing is that I was no stranger to my UPLAY team mates as I know a lot of them from the Canada Junior Academy 2018/2019. I was able to contribute in all games played by scoring with on ball and off ball defence.
Games were played at Boo Williams facility which had 8 basketball courts. The energy in the complex was always high and intense with parents cheering and yelling instructions and their expertise in refereeing. The coaches were intense and focused and I know they have a lot to offer.
We played 5 games and finished 2/3 with one of the games going into overtime, tough loss.
Being added to the roster close to the tournament date, I flew to Washington with my dad and drove to Virginia (3hrs) to the hotel.
I am eager and looking forward to familiarize myself with Uplay offensive and defensive plays to have more of an opportunity to increase my court time in all aspects of the game. I am looking forward to the next Made Hoops date!

Hi my name is Ally Fearon and I play for UPLAY blue. I find that UPLAY is a loving family. We all enjoy hanging out with one another when we are in the road.
I enjoy the competition and high ball level that we play at, it works on individual and group skill levels and I find that very important.
We played against the top team in our last tournament and lost by one in overtime but we fought hard for a win and made that team work.
Overall we played our best and that’s all we could do.
Can’t wait for session two.
