Season 2005 / 2006

The first few games were very positive, including an early challenge from a young Newton Abbot team who took the Revolution all the way into the final seconds where the Revolution managed to win by a single point 83-82. The Revolution then fell to the hands of an NDC team deep in talent; the squad were forced to play without their centre and did not recover from a poor start. This would prove costly. The team also battled closely with Bridport all year, splitting the four games 2-2 and also finished 2-2 against eventual league winners, the NDC team mentioned above.

The Revolution did make it to the Plate finals after defeating old rivals Exeter Police in the semi final, where they lost to Bridport. They did however get a chance for revenge on their last game of the season. After playing from behind for the majority of the game, the squad showed great poise to dominate the third quarter and come away with a great emotional victory 84-68. Marc Eggleton came away with the Most Valuable Player award for the season and John Grounds and Brett Cooper were the co-Most Improved Players. Tom Baker and Ben Thompson were voted the teams’ co-Players’ Player for their efforts in games and general sportsmanship towards the game. Eventually finishing the Division in second place, the Revolution was left looking positively to next season.
