The competition was fierce with the standard of balling skills at Peachgrove at an all time high. The Best managed to pip The Aura Farmers to the final, whilst ACC 2.0 continued their impressive run to the final with a blow out win over The Grizzlies.

Could The Best upset the odds and overcome ACC 2.0 in the all teachers final?! The answer was no, no they couldn't! Congratulations to ACC 2.0, the Peachgrove 3v3 Streetball Champions 2025.

The 3rd place playoff winner, and the title of Best Student Team goes to The Aura Farmers who beat The Grizzlies in a high quality match up. Congratulations goes to them.
