Brighton Bears' youngsters scored a 100 per cent success rate last week.

The under-18s hit form to sink the previously unbeaten Ware Rebels 72-63. Ware led 15-14 at the end of the first quarter before Bears took charge.

Sam Mead and Tommy Duncan controlled the game well at point guard and Bears' full court pressure saw them go in at the half 33-25 ahead.

Consistent inside scoring from Ollie Roche (22) and Josh Allison (10) together with good outside shooting from Luke Peeling (10) kept them in command.

Bears under-16s were 83-65 winners over Ware. They led throughout and had built a 43-30 lead by the half.

Charlie Ellis provided the main scoring threat, pouring in 35 points. Joe Goodeve contributed 14 and Tom Ward, one of the club's under-14s, sunk both three-point attempts.

Bears under-15s beat Southampton 53-27 and hosts Bristol 68-56.

Matthew Sheppard offered strong work inside and there was a super debut by 6ft.5ins Sam Hart from Seaford.

Bears kept Southampton down to three points in one of the quarters and outscored Bristol 16-6 in a second period notable for some excellent fast break basketball.

Bears under-15s: Matthew Sheppard 26, Joe Tompkins 17, Sam Hart 15, Ben Allinson 14, James Welch 12, Ben Marchant 10, Ian Berry 10, Adam Fergany 7, Liam Mitchell 6, Braque Welch 2, Matai Jahai 2, Liam Williams.
