The Primary School Super Sevens senior basketball finals met all expectations, drawing a full house to the Presentation Gym in Killarney.

The Senior finals featured two stand-out Grand Slam Cup winners, Currow girls and Scartaglen boys, both of whom remained unbeaten with seven wins each to claim their respective titles. The tournament was exceptionally successful for both schools, as Currow also secured the Junior Girls cup and Scartaglen the Junior Boys cup at the end of May, achieving a unique double triumph.
