Battle of the Bridge - Auckland Stars vs Harbour
Heat
Tomorrow morning Friday 30 April 9:30am at Ponsonby Intermediate school, 50 Clarence Street, Ponsonby players from the Auckland Stars will match-up against crosstown rivals the Harbour Heat in the lead up the Saturday night's Battle of the Bridge.
Pupils from the school will make up numbers in a pick-up game with some of their basketball stars - Tall Black's Lindsay Tait and Mike Homik will lead the way for the Stars together with captain Casey Frank and Reese Cassidy.
Harbour have never won a Battle of the Bridge game, however this week's match could see the trophy move across with the Heat having their 'imports' primed and ready for Saturday night's fever.
