For a time we tried to follow, to carve out our own piece of sky with a butter-smooth arc of an arm and a Spalding ball glued to the fingertips. Seen from a British perspective, The Spalding Suite gets to the heart and soul of the gravity-defying game and delves into the hopes and dreams of those who play it. From the fleeting high of the score and the robust camaraderie of the team, to the poignant lows of a body too worn to play the game.Oberon modern plays.BasketballDramaBasketball playersDramaAthletes, BlackDramaTeamwork (Sports)DramaBasketballPoetryBasketball playersPoetryAthletes, Blackfast(OCoLC)fst00820086Basketballfast(OCoLC)fst00828203Basketball playersfast(OCoLC)fst00828280Teamwork (Sports)fast(OCoLC)fst01144701Plays, playscriptsbicPoetry.fastDrama.fastDrama.lcgftBasketballBasketball playersAthletes, BlackTeamwork (Sports)BasketballBasketball playersAthletes, Black.Basketball.Basketball players.Teamwork (Sports)Plays, playscripts.822.92Ellams Inua1241024Sam-La Rose JacobParkes Nii AyikweiMakoha NickPiasecki BohdanRobinson RogerUkLoBPUkLoBPBOOK9910822249203321The spalding suite4056697UNINA
