Term 1 Sport Information
Welcome back to what should be another fantastic year of sport at the College. Although it appears that we are over the worst of the COVID situation, it is obviously a very dynamic situation and we are continuing to stay vigilant in our planning and organisation as we navigate these uncertain times. With that in mind, it looks as though sport at a MISA, Diocesan and NWSCCC level will proceed as normal, however, there will obviously be some minor changes in the processes and procedures.
College Swimming Carnival
Our first major school event for the year is the College swimming carnival. The swimming carnival was held on Thursday 10 February at the Gordan Fetterplace Aquatic Centre.
Activities Program
Our activities program commenced on 1 February with a flurry of physical activity and excitement. The College has once engaged the services of a variety of facilitators and will continue to run a number of specialty programs including Cheer for students in Years 8–11 as well as an Outdoor Education program for students in Year 8.
MISA
Our trial process for the Term 1 MISA teams is well underway and the competition starts on 15 February. Term 1 MISA sports include Indoor Cricket, Volleyball and Hockey for students in Years 7-9 and Oz Tag and Basketball for students in Years 10–12. Information regarding MISA can be found at https://www.misaonline.org.au/
Wollongong Diocesan Sport
Wollongong Diocesan sport kicks off with the Diocesan Tennis on 14 February followed by the Diocesan Touch on 24 February and Diocesan Swimming on 11 March. Trials for these teams will begin very soon and will be run during lunchtimes. We also have our Year 9 PASS class supporting the Western Region Catholic Primary schools by acting as officials at their selection swimming carnival. Information regarding Wollongong Diocesan sport can be found at https://www.dow.catholic.edu.au/sport/
NSWCCC Sport
NSWCCC sport registrations have opened for a number of Term 1 events and this is the pathway for our elite athletes. Registrations for these selection trials are done online and all students have been emailed information on the process. It is important that students and parents are aware of the requirements to register for these teams as well as the closing dates for each sport.
