For the next generation of 7 WAIS Structure Olympians and Paralympians, these champions and their performances are the inspiration that allows them to dream of greatness, work hard 8 WAIS Staff and make the sacrifices required to excel in their sport. For the broader 10 Hall of Champions community, they are the inspiration to dream of great things in their everyday life. The role of WAIS is fostering these attitudes, and bringing 11 Athlete of the Year these hopes and dreams to reality is paramount in today’s society. 12 Champions Breakfast I highly commend the WAIS Board of Directors, Chairman, Grant Boyce, 14 Scorecard Executive Director, Steve Lawrence, and the Institute staff on their efforts in supporting and preparing Western Australian athletes selected 16 2008 Beijing Olympic Games in the Australian Olympic and Paralympic Teams for Beijing.

The Australian Olympic 46 Softball Committee’s continued endorsement of WAIS as an Olympic Training Centre, and the outstanding achievements of our Olympic and Paralympic 48 Swimming athletes at the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games, is testament to the critical 50 Water Polo Men’s role that WAIS plays within the Australian sporting system.

    SCHOOL SPORT AUSTRALIA 12 & U and 15 & U NETBALL CHAMPIONSHIPS HISTORY The championships had their origins in the Australian State Schools' Basketball Association developed originally for primary schools and played predominately on grass. Interstate carnivals commenced in 1923 and continued in 1924 when a number of exchanges between individual states occurred. In 1924 visiting teachers from Victoria, Queensland and South Australia to New South Wales made exhaustive inquiries into the question of girls’ games with the view to inaugurating interstate contests. In 1925 South Australia hosted New South Wales, Victoria and Queensland in both a junior and senior competition, one of the games attracted over 2000 spectators. South Australia was victorious in the junior section and South Australia and Victoria both finished in first place in the senior. This competition continued in 1926 in New South Wales and 1927 in Victoria. With the introduction of a perpetual trophy the first officially recognised Australian State Schoolgirls Basketball (Netball) Championship was played at the Practising School, Brisbane in 1928. The final, on the afternoon of the August 22nd, was before a large crowd. Victoria convincingly beat NSW 23 goals to 4 goals. Mr John Donald Howie donated the perpetual trophy following the win of Victoria. Mr Howie was a Victorian Councillor from 1922 – 1932 and Mayor of Camberwell in 1927 and 1928. Australian schoolgirls tournaments were organised to combine both a netball competition and an educational tour, When girls weren’t playing they attended lessons at the local school or made educational day trips. In Brisbane the girls visited Toowoomba, the Olympic Tyre and Rubber Works in Geebung and took a trip to the South Coast of Queensland.
