The Association endeavours to provide a wide range of sporting activities and opportunities for all students in our public high schools. For over 130 years, competition has been provided at a variety of levels by willing and dedicated teachers to help the pupils in our schools reach their potential at their selected sport. At this stage, I must thank all those principals, coaches, managers, parents, officials and participants who have strived so hard to make our championships successful. Much of this time is done on a voluntary basis and it is greatly appreciated. 2021 continues to pose numerous challenges and restrictions, despite this, it is wonderful to see our students back on the sporting field. I would like to thank all the Executive Officers for their efforts in getting NSWCHS sport back up and running, thankyou also to all parents and students as your understanding and compliance to the new normal is appreciated. Finally, I would ask all competitors to reflect on their achievement as reaching the NSWCHS level is an outstanding milestone and is not to be underestimated, well done. It is unlikely that you have got to this point on your own, so please take a moment to thank those around you who have supported you on this journey. Congratulations on reaching this elite level of competition and best of luck. Simon Warren President NSWCHSSA Simon Warren Deputy Principal Brisbane Water Secondary College President - NSW Combined High Schools Welcome from the NSWCHSSA Football Convener It is with great pleasure that I welcome all competitors, Department of Education representatives and visitors to Kirrawee for the 2021 NSW Combined High Schools Football State Championship. The students are here this week representing their School Sports Associations, Schools and families. It is an honour to gain representative status as an athlete and we look forward to the performances of those who may emulate the careers of many of the current and former Socceroos, Young Socceroos and A‐League players who have participated at these championships. From this championship the NSW Combined High Schools State teams to compete in the NSW All Schools Tournament during June will be announced for fixtures against Combined Catholic Colleges and Combined Independent Schools. This event also serves as the trials for this year’s Inter‐State Series, which will be held at Football NSW during July/August. We look forward to some wonderful football with the challenge for all teams to step up to the quality football we saw from the 2019 champions, Sydney East who narrowly accounted for a resurgent Hunter in an exciting final. I would like to thank Sydney East Schools Sports Association for hosting the 2021 championships. Our thanks are also extended to Football NSW who, along with Puma are also great supporters and sponsors of our Football Program Finally, may I wish all the 2021 Association football representatives from across NSW the very best of luck and again, enjoy your “time on the park” and I look forward to the great sportsmanship, athleticism and quality football of this annual event. Have a great tournament.
