Indian Ocean Islands Games in the Seychelles Update

The 8th Indian Ocean Games in the Seychelles update: Re-draw for the ladies basketball.

The ladies draw of the basketball competition had to be re-done on the 23rd July 2011 as a result of the withdraw of one of the participating teams, namely that of the Maldives Ladies Basketball team. The withdraw was within the games regulations time frame and the new draw was conducted in the presence of majority of the COJI Committee members.

The initial draw had all the teams within two groups.
Group A: Seychelles, Reunion and Comoros.
Group B: Madagascar, Maldives and Mayotte.

As a result of the initial draw it placed Seychelles in the same group as their rivals, namely that of Reunion.

The new draw conducted on the 23rd July saw Reunion moving to Group B which allows Seychelles a greater chance to reach the semi-finals and hopefully finals.

Good Luck Seychelles we are behind you...
