NKEC Basketball

Basketball is one of the longest seasons of any school sport. The season usually begins in October with tryouts and then continues until early March. Both senior teams compete in a number of tournaments in and out of the province, as well as hosting their own during the month of December.  The fee for the season is based on the number of games and tournaments being attended. For more information surrounding basketball at NKEC feel free to contact Ross Bentley rbentley@gnspes.ca  (Varsity Girls HC).

As a the number of students interested in basketball continues to grow, JV teams have been introduced to already compliment a solid school basketball program from Junior High all the way to Varsity.
