PAST and present members of basketball team had a slam dunking good time at a reunion.

More than 50 players from Greenwich Admirals played three hours of games at Maze Hill Ball Court, Woodlands Park Road, Maze Hill.

The aim of the event was to bid farewell to a founder and coach of the club, Stu Turpie, who is retiring and moving to France.

Mr Turpie, 59, a former geography teacher at Thomas Tallis School, Kidbrooke Park Road, Kidbrooke, is also an former England international basketball player.

He was one of the founders of the club in 1985 which currently competes in the Medway League in games across London and Kent.

Andy Dixon, who has played for the club for 14 years and organised the August 21 reunion, said: "It's been great to get everyone together.

"We played slam-dunk competitions and celebrated the years of good ball played and friendships forged."
