What is happening U16s at Centrals (SA)

Obviously not here to name kids names or disparage anyone from playing basketball. But these results are a little out of hand.

Looking at the Centrals games has caused some alarm.

Loss to South 17 - 173 (173!!) NO 3s scored
Loss to Eastern 32 - 83
Loss to Forestville 17 - 147
Loss to Woodville 40 - 79
Loss to Southern 23 - 126
Loss to Norwood 28 - 110

Questions off the back of these results.
1. has any team in junior basketball scored more than 173 points before?
2. Has there ever been a team to give up over 110 points 4 times in a season before in juniors?
3. Surely BSA has to step in and move this team down here, how can they in good conscience keep this team in div 1?

Bit harsh, those girls parents paid for an nbl1 title.
But 190 combined points is impressive, it would be literally a layup within seconds every time it was unbounded, makes the NBA all-star game look like a early 2000s Heat Knicks game.
Without a doubt the team should be relegated, the club should be actively pushing for it themselves.
Worst performance I've seen was a div 2 team beaten 99-2, and those 2 points was a dodgy goal tend by allegedly touching the net.

Ah Phantom, looks like you know what you are talking about. This is the boys not girls!! Catch up and know what you are talking about. Here this is the result of poaching from other clubs over the last couple of years. Some unhappy campers up north we here, not just in this agr group!

been around a long time and can confidently say I've never ever seen 173 points - a couple of 140s but never that amount.

Perhaps additional training sessions or further concentration on skill building?
