Sports Council exists in order to provide opportunities for international schools located in North Western Europe to meet in specified tournament activities on a competitive basis. Each school should work toward a common aim to achieve an efficient and well-balanced program that promotes healthy competition, sportsmanship, and full participation. 1.2 AIMS 1.2.1 PER AGE GROUP Under 14, Under 12 and Under 10 levels To organize competitive tournaments in various team and individual sports (as stipulated in the By- Laws) in which participation by all members of the team is important within the limitations imposed by the various sports’ governing bodies. Every student MUST play for at least a quarter/set, from beginning to end, of the game in total during EVERY game at a tournament. NOTE: There are specific rules regarding the minimum amount of participation time at the Under 14 and 12 levels in Soccer, Volleyball, Mini-Volleyball, Basketball and Mini-Basketball. See Appendix D in the By-Laws (Guidelines for Soccer, Volleyball, Mini-Volleyball, Basketball, and Mini-Basketball) for these rules THAT MUST BE STRICTLY ADHERED TO. Varsity and Junior Varsity levels. To organize competitive tournaments in various team and individual sports (as stipulated in the By- Laws); while believing that participation by all members of the team is desirable, we recognize that this is not always possible in every game. However, every student MUST be allowed to play during the tournament and preferably all members of the team should be allowed to play in every game. 1.2.2 GENERAL To promote sportsmanship among fellow team members, members of the opposing team, officials, coaches and spectators. (See following page, NECIS Statement of Sportsmanship) N.E.C.I.S by-laws, June 2014 Page | 4 2. OBJECTIVES 1. To foster a sense of enjoyment and achievement throughout a tournament. 2. While recognizing that all participants should play to the best of their abilities, students should be encouraged to accept defeat gracefully and to celebrate success in a sporting manner. 3. To provide opportunities for positive emotional development in competitive and social situations. 4. To improve physical fitness. 5. To allow students to accept responsibility. 6. To allow certain students to display leadership skills. 7. To teach our students the principle of co-operation among individuals while striving for a common goal. 8. To develop a positive working atmosphere between a coach and his/her team. 9. To demonstrate adequate preparation for the sport in which the students are involved. 10. To teach the necessary skills and impart a knowledge of the rules and tactics necessary to participate in each sport. 11. To develop an interest in, and a desire to continue, sports activities in later years. 12. To provide opportunities for and to encourage social interaction with students from other international schools. In order to achieve these objectives, the N.E.C.I.S. Sports Council requires that, for team sports, every Tournament Director: 1. Selects adequate facilities. 2. Uses qualified, up-to-date officials. 3. Organizes the tournament to provide maximum playing time for all teams regardless of their strengths. For tournaments involving individual sports, each Tournament Director is required to adequately prepare the officials. N.E.C.I.S by-laws, June 2014 Page | 5 3. NECIS STATEMENT ON SPORTSMANSHIP The purpose of the Northwest European Council of International Schools is to provide a venue for athletes from the member schools to compete in an environment that is safe, challenging, professional and educational. Each athlete is given the opportunity to demonstrate her/his best athletic ability while maintaining a spirit of respect and co-operation with fellow athletes from various international backgrounds. Each event involves students and adults in their different roles: these include the athletes, coaches, sports officials and spectators. All those involved in the event are expected to uphold the same spirit of respect and co-operation. This spirit is demonstrated by fair play among athletes, positive encouragement from coaches, impartial judgments from officials and respectful enthusiasm from spectators. The positive behavior of the adults is crucial to the successful educational aspect of the tournament. The adults act as models for our athletes. Therefore profanity, deliberately making noises that distract and interfere with the performance of a competing athlete, the condemnation of coaches or officials, or any behavior that is disrespectful or degrading to the NECIS standard of sportsmanship, jeopardizes the purposes of the NECIS organization and, most of all, jeopardizes the quality of the experience for the athletes. As the event ensues, we ask that all of our parents, coaches, officials and athletes keep this vision of our purpose in mind. N.E.C.I.S by-laws, June 2014 Page | 6 4. ARTICLES OF ASSOCIATION 4.1 PREAMBLE The formation of the N.E.C.I.S. Sports Council is to allow various schools to meet in specified tournament activities on a competitive basis.

The picture was taken last year after our students had gone to represent the IEA at the wreath laying ceremony. Their moment of solitude and reflection was caught by a Post Courier photographer. The special also featured the winning essay of the Anzac Day Essay Compe- tition by Catherine Gileng. Catherine won the senior division. Tiare Temu and Bethlemmer Tambua were runners-up in this nationwide competition. The last photograph above shows two of our senior students representing not only POMIS but the IEA at the Anzac Day Commemoration, as we have for a number of years.

  • 2017 Yearbook
    2017 Yearbook President’s Report Thank you to everyone associated with the Ashy Redbacks this season. It has been a fantastic year with success on the fi eld, on the training track, and right across the club. It is fantastic to see the positive outcomes in this year’s coaching reviews with all highlighting the development and growth of players from U8 through to our top age Colts and Youth Girls. As a club we had 32 teams representing us this season, 28 in the boys competition and 4 in the girls. We saw the addition of an U13 girls side this year and just missed out on being able to fi eld an U11 girls team. I’m sure that next year with the continued growth of the Women’s AFL competition we will see our girls number increase further in 2018. Congratulations to our Under 15 Green, U12 Green and U10 Black sides who all fi nished 2017 as Premiers of their respective competitions. It was a pleasure to share and celebrate the Grand Final day with you and see the joy on your faces. Premierships are not a goal, they are an outcome of the hard work and dedication that you put in, and for that, you should be proud of your achievements. We will fl y your Premiership fl ags high in the clubrooms in your honour. This year Stephen Karvellas, Rob Ritson, and Thomas Oliver reached 150 games played for the club. This is an amazing achievement and a journey that started many years ago.
