Daily Information The Sports Notice Board, situated outside the Sports Office window (link foyer area), contains information about draws, results, team lists, future sports events and opportunities, cancellations and defaults. Students should check the notice board regularly as it is their responsibility to stay informed. In addition the daily notices are available on notice boards around the school and are placed on the school website at around 3pm each day for the next day. Parents can access these through the Parent Portal.

Sporting Achievements During the course of the year there are a number of occasions where the school recognises and ap- plauds the sporting achievements of its students. This applies equally to all sporting codes. The Physical Education and Sports Departments often hear of such success but there are some students who reach representative status outside of the co-curricular sports programme that we aren’t aware of. Please tell us about these achievements by emailing the sports office [email protected] Please also note the Important Dates at the end of this booklet which include the Onslow College Sports Awards and College Sport Wellington SPOTY Awards.

3 GENERAL

Fees All Sports Fees include a $10 non-refundable registration/admin fee. Once an account is received, please ensure payment is made by the due dates (Summer Fees – 12 February; Winter Fees—4 May). Registration fees assist with the cost of equipment, uniform replacement, first aid, competition entry fees, compulsory officials fees, turf and facility hire charges, some transport costs and administration. Additionally, students involved in exchanges and tournaments will pay associated fees and should expect to be involved in fundraising activities to help reduce the costs of these tournaments to families. Please contact the school office if you need to discuss a payment plan or use the Payment Plan form in this booklet which can be returned on registration day. Students are asked to think carefully about each sport and the level of commitment that will be required of them. NO REFUNDS will be given after the first week of a sports season unless there are extenuating circumstances. Application for refund should be made to the Sports Office in writing.

Communication The Sports Office is open from 9.00am to 3.30pm including interval and lunchtime most days. Stu- dents are encouraged to discuss any sports issues (such as defaults and deferrals) in a timely manner as they have a responsibility to their own team members, the teams they compete against, and the competition organisers. Late advice of defaulted games incur a charge from tournament providers which must be paid by the team concerned before the following week of play.

Sports Tournaments Teams or individuals may compete in various North Island or National Secondary Schools Tourna- ments or other events throughout the year. The two main tournament dates are: 23-27 March 2015 Summer Tournament Week 31 August – 4 September 2015 Winter Tournament Week. Senior teams participating in these tournaments will be selected depending upon their level of achievement in local competition and on the expectation that they could gain selection to a national competition. If selected in more than one top team, students may only represent one code during Tournament Week. Team coaches and the Director of Sport must be advised of their decision by 18 May 2015. This may require the student stepping down from one team in order to allow the tournament team to train together. NOTE: To participate in either of these tournaments, students will be required to pay extra costs for travel, accommodation, food and entry fees, these must be paid before the tournament commences or the student will be unable to attend. It is expected that students will be involved in fundraising.

Coaches and Managers

Teams will not be entered into competition without a Coach and a Manager. We are very grateful to all our volunteers as without them we would be unable to provide the sporting opportunities that our students enjoy so much. With around 150 teams at Onslow College each year it is vital that we have parental and community involvement in coaching and managing teams. The Coach/Manager/Officials Registration & Contact Form in this booklet should be completed if you are available to assist with our sports programme. Please complete and return it to school with your child’s sports registration forms. Alternatively, contact with our Sports Office would be welcomed.

Sports Team Photographs All sports teams will have the opportunity to have a team photograph taken on Tuesday 28th July. The success of this opportunity relies on all team members being available, on time and dressed in their team uniform. Term 1 summer sport teams will need to arrange for uniform to be available on the day if they have loaned uniforms from the Sports Office. Coaches, managers and team officials are welcome to join students for the photographs and a schedule will be available on the school website ahead of the event. Photographs will be made available online in full resolution for all sports students to access with a username and password which will be issued by the school. Payment is covered by your sports fees, however hardcopy prints may be ordered directly from the photographers website at an additional cost OR an image file downloaded and taken to a local lab for processing. Students and their parents will be able to have the images saved on their phone or pc making them available for sharing without infringing copyright.

SPORTS UNIFORM

Uniform Requirements Uniform requirements are kept to a minimum but in all cases the uniform is non-negotiable and must be adhered to. Wearing sports uniform is a requirement of the sports bodies who provide the competitions our teams enter i.e. College Sport Wellington, Wellington Hockey Association and Welling- ton Netball Centre. Onslow College’s official sports colours are green and red.

All students in the school’s premier teams and teams that travel to Summer and Winter Tourna- ments, are required to wear the school tracksuit to all competitions. Tracksuits can be purchased from the Sports Office.

Uniforms provided by Onslow College will be signed out to students at the time of issue. An annual loan fee of $20 per item will be charged to the student’s account.

Uniform that is not returned will be charged to the student’s account at $150 per item. Uni- forms will be collected at the end of the season by coaches/managers or can be returned to the Sports Office in a bag with your name, form class and sports code written on a piece of paper inside. Please make an effort to return uniform following the last week of your playing season as it may be required for teams entering the next season of sport.

The timely return of uniform will help keep sports fees down. All hired uniform is expected to be returned in a clean and tidy condition. Damage of uniforms should be advised to the Sports Office as soon as possible after it happens. Uniforms not provided by the school can, in most cases, be supplied out of the Sports office. A price list for sports uniform is at the back of this information booklet. Payments should be made to the school office and the receipt brought to the Sports Office where the order will be filled. Uniform items cannot be charged to a students account.

Details of the uniform items required to be purchased for each code are included with the individual code information on the following pages. All attempts are being made to standardise the uniform to our new ‘Koru’ design and to limit the number of items you will need to purchase. Any items you purchase should be able to be used for several years and in several codes.

If you have any questions or issues around obtaining the right uniform for any code, please contact the Director of Sport as soon as possible. Email [email protected]

20 SUMMER SPORTS

14 ORIENTEERING (All year) CODE CONVENOR: PAUL TEESDALE-SPITTLE Orienteering combines running with navigational challenge. Courses are set for all levels of experience. Beginners' courses have simple navigation, generally using tracks. More advances courses require runners to make decisions about how to navigate quickly and accurately around an off track course. Orienteering at its top level is a fast and physical sport, but is just as enjoyable at a more sedate pace. Some team members will run every event fast and hard, others will walk around the course, enjoying the time outside and the challenge of navigating accurately.

Competition: Events run all through the year and are generally held on Sunday mornings, usually starting after 11 am. They are put on by the local orienteering clubs, and include a College Sport Wellington series during the first term.
