In STAT the boys play a game against the bullies. The bullies are hogging the court and also trashing the court. They’re trashing the court by leaving trash all over the court. The bullies were hurting the boys not calling fouls. The boys lost the game.
The next day the boy decided to play them again but this time they have a plan. There plan is to gather a bunch of people to play in the game. The plan worked they won the game. And the deal was the winner gets the court.
Where did they get all the people to play? Were they classmates or kids from the neighborhood? Did they step in when one of the the kids got hurt?
I’m glad that in the end the boys found a way to get the court away form the bullies, even after a crushing defeat. It can be hard to be resilient in the face of defeat, but it sound like these kids worked it out. As Charlotte says, “You’ve got to have grit.”
