Chapter 417 - Basketball Club
In the next few days, the rcenary Club continued to listen to the request of other clubs. Due to their growing popularity in the school, many clubs continued to co to request different kinds of requests. There were a lot of nonsensical requests and most of the clubs didn’t really need their help, they just ca to have a look. It was on the third day, a club finally ca to them with a decent request. There in the room with them was a tall student standing six feet and three inches. This was the Captain of the Basketball Club.
"So what’s your request? What kind of help do you need the rcenary Club to do?" Oliver asked looking a bit more tired than usual. He was half expecting the Captain of the Basketball Club to request the girls to be cheerleaders. This was because most of the sports club had requested the sa thing. Ever since Sir Lyner went away it beca quite hard to find decent requests.
"The Basketball Club is currently facing a serious problem. Half of our players got into a fight with a delinquent group and were suspended from school. So they won’t be able to compete in the upcoming inter-high tournant. We’re missing players and won’t be able to join the competition. So I was hoping if you guys can sub in as players?"
Every mber of the rcenary Club except for Alex looked at the Captain of the Basketball Club with a dumbfounded expression. They couldn’t believe their ears, an actual honest to God decent request. It took a while for them to digest what was said. Oliver then clapped his hands and replied in a happy tone.
"Of course we can help you. We’re the rcenary Club, no request is too big or too small for us. So do you want us to be reserved players or do you want us to play?" The Captain of the Basketball Club scratched his head before replying.
"Actually, truth be told we only have three players including left in the team."
"Wait... So you’re telling , the entirety of your team is just six players? Cause you said, half of your team was suspended, so since half is literally three that would an... So that’s all of you?"
"I know... It’s embarrassing to say, but the Basketball Club is really not that popular. After the upperclassn graduated, no one had joined since. Even back then we weren’t that popular since we haven’t won a single ga in the past decade. We are actually considered the worst team of the entire high school basketball scene."
The Captain of the Basketball Club spoke in total embarrassnt and was expecting Oliver to reject his request but sothing different happened, he noticed that Oliver’s eyes were practically sparkling.
"So you want us to play, of course, we can do it. That’s a great request! You guys know how to play right?" Oliver asks the other boy mbers of the rcenary Club.
"Basketball is the one were you throw a ball into a hoop, right? I’ve tried that during the ti I was looking around the other clubs. I can play it and I do understand the rules." Alex answered with his usual indifferent tone and stoic expression.
"I do know how to play a little and you can say that I’m a little good at it. I did help the Basketball Club back when I was in middle school." Niel answered with a bright smile on his face. The truth was he wasn’t just a little good at it, he was great. Back in middle school, his middle school basketball team won the championship with his help, and he wasn’t even a mber. During the entirety of the tournant, Niel did not score a single point but he had the most assist and rebounds.
"I do know the rules, but... I’m not really that good at it, I hope that’s alright." Kei answered a little embarrassed.
"How about us girls, what are we going to do? Our Basketball Club is an all-boys Basketball team right, so are we not needed?" Rachel asked.
"Well... If you want to join in the fun, you guys can be our cheerleaders." Oliver suggested while shrugging his shoulders.
"I guess we have no other choice. I don’t really like the idea of being a cheerleader too much, but I guess doing it with the two of you should be fun." Rachel looked at Emily and Sayaka.
"Yeah, we get to wear cheerleader uniforms. Don’t worry, I know just the place where we can get cute ones." Emily excitedly responded.
"Dressing up, dancing, and cheering Oliver on, does sound pretty fun," Sayaka spoke with a coquettish smile while looking at Oliver who averted his gaze which made Sayaka giggle.
...
The Captain of the Basketball Club was excited to hear that the boys of the rcenary Club would help his club. He wasn’t expecting them to agree since he heard that the rcenary Club has rejected all the other clubs up until now. So when he heard Oliver agree, he was truly surprised and happy at the sa ti.
Alex’s skill has already been proven back when he tried out for the club. Niel was pretty famous back in middle school for being the greatest point guard of his year. He hasn’t seen Oliver play but based on Oliver’s physique and his physical prowess, he should be quite decent. With these three onboard, it didn’t really matter how bad Kei was.
"So when is the ga going to start?"
The Captain of the Basketball Club who was already daydreaming about their victory, snapped out of it when he heard Oliver’s question.
"The first ga is going to be two weeks from now against Hope high school."
"That doesn’t really give us too much ti to practice. So how about we start now?" Oliver suggested. He was getting a little bit excited since they haven’t been doing anything but listen to BS request for the past few days.
