This season Loyola Basketball School will add another three trophies to their collection with the U-15 championship top award going to the Loyola Vileda U-15 cadets (boys). In the girls section, both Loyola Vileda U-15 cadettes and Loyola Vileda U-17 juniors (women) continued their positive run of the past years by reaching second place in both categories. This was the best performance of the school with all these wins.

The U-15 boys team is full of talent and one cannot single out players as all the team worked hard throughout the season to reach their glory.
