CHAIRPERSONS ANNUAL REPORT 2012

It gives me great pleasure to present this annual report on behalf of the executive, diocesan and association representatives and individual sport conveners. The scope of this report reflects another amazing year of sporting achievement for our catholic school students and staff in secondary schools across NSW. It provides a reflection of the incredible talent we have in our schools and the pathways that are available in a wide variety of sports. It is always rewarding to see students from our catholic secondary schools listed as members of NSW All School and Australian teams.

Pope Benedict XVI in praying for this year’s London Olympic and Paralympic Games hoped for the promotion of world peace and friendship emphasizing the positive role that sports can play in society. He said, “the Olympics are the greatest sporting event in the world, at which athletes from a great many nations participate, and as such they have a strong symbolic value. The Games remind us of human endeavour and ambition at its most pure; the will to come together to measure our abilities and soar to ever greater heights in the name not of profit or greed but, in the words of the Olympic Charter: “at the service of the harmonious development of man, with a view to promoting a peaceful society concerned with the preservation of human dignity” Our NSWCCC sporting activities can foster these great values and are further testimony to the spirit of partnership and co-operation that are part of our Catholic education tradition.

The report that follows is a most detailed account of the many sporting events for the year. It highlights the representative pathways and illustrates the complex yet incredible organisation that takes place to allow all these opportunities to come to fruition. There is no doubt that our success as an association is a result of the tremendous support at a local level from our participating schools, Principals and teachers.

I offer my sincerest thanks and congratulations to the individual sports coordinators at each and every school in our system. They are at the ‘coal face’ where these sporting opportunities are communicated and work tirelessly, often well outside their normal teaching duties. To the NSWCCC sports conveners, thank you for work in promoting and organising your sport. The expertise, motivation and passion you have in coordinating your sport and ensuring access into the All Schools arena is invaluable and you are all vital to the success of CCC. To the Diocesan and Association representatives – a job well done. Your role in administering and organising your schools is ongoing throughout the year and again vital to allow our pathways to function so effectively.

I would also like to take this opportunity to thank the members of the CCC executive – Chris Hook, Linda Densmore, Wendy Breen and Chris Anschau for the great work they have done throughout the year. This working committee has met regularly to improve our practices and discuss a wide variety of council issues, all in the aim of making CCC a more professional and effective association. A special mention to our good friend Helen Notley who has assisted our group again this year.

The introduction of the CSSS website has been a major step forward for our organisation this year. It has provided a real presence for CCC and pushed us into the digital world with a professional interface. Thanks again to our dedicated executive officer in Kym Skerritt who has overseen the website introduction along with her continued support of council members, Principals, schools, students and families. Along with this, Kym provides a vital link to both the Catholic Schools Coordinating Committee and to the NSW All Schools sporting structures. Congratulations on a great year and thank you Kym on behalf of all involved in catholic school sport.

The diverse roles mentioned so far are all vital components to the successful operation of CCC. We all must continue to be aware that we are one part of a team, that the association caters for students from all over NSW in over 20 sports and remain open minded to the reality of existing resources that are available to us.

Finally, my thanks to the members of the Catholic Sports Coordinating Committee. Your support and guidance of our CCC council and your communication to the Conference of Directors and Association of Catholic School Principals is very much appreciated. As we look ahead to secure our future, particularly in light of proposed budget cuts to education in NSW, it is imperative that our council members and enthusiastic teachers continue to receive support from their respective Principals and Diocesan Offices. To those who are leaving our NSWCCCSA thankyou for your contributions, good luck to you and best wishes for the future!

Please take time to read this NSW Combined Catholic Colleges Annual Report for 2012, I am sure you will be impressed with the quality of our students and the structures we have in place.

EXECUTIVE OFFICER’S REPORT 2012

2012 was another successful year on the sporting field. I would like to acknowledge the success of NSWCCC teams, Open Boys , Boys and 15 years . All were successful at National Championships.

It is timely to also congratulate the many past students who represented in International, Olympic and Paralympic competitions. Many of these athletes have acknowledged the positive elements of participating in the school representative pathways. There is also many staff memers who participate and officate at the elite level. Congratulations on your achievements. As always their successes do not come without some sacrifice and encouragement from their family and support network.

2012 was also year of change for NSWCCC. The new website was launched and unfortunately it was not as smooth as anticipated. Thank you to everyone for the support and encouragement through some very difficult “teething times”. There are many benefits to this new website namely it provides accurate information to a wider community. It has certainly reduced the amount of paper required to keep up accurate communication.

The Catholic Sports Coordinating Committee which has set policy and provided guidelines and support for the sub committees NSWCCC and NSWCPS has been replaced by Catholic Schools Sports Services. The activities and structure of NSWCCC and NSWCPS will not be affected but they will be provided with greater support from each of the NSW Catholic Dioceses.

It is timely to thank all those who have served on the CSCC since 1993. We are grateful for your expertise and dedication in dealing with the development and integration of the representive pathway. Special thanks go to Gary McSweeney who has chaired this committee for the last ten years.

My role as Executive Officer is made pleasurable and simpler because of those whom I work with. I offer my thanks to the following:

Ann-Marie Miranda, Executive Officer – Primary who keeps alive the link between CCC and CPS and provides me with great support. Bev Vimpany, who provides the financial support that ensures payments are made and monitored and also provides wonderful support, also to Kathie Lowe who plays a vital role in the administration. Her patience and diligence is outstanding.

I would like to extend my thanks to the NSWCCC Executive for their support and guidance. Your leadership and vision is inspirational.

The NSWCCC Conveners work specifically with their sport ensuring rules of play and selections provide a level playing field and ensure all students are given equal opportunity. In particular, I would like to thank conveners who have retired. Ross Gawthorne (Girls Cricket), Tim Spain (Boys Cricket) and Jacinda Spicer (Netball). Their leadership and expertise have ensured opportunities for many students. I would also like to thank their schools for providing the support for them to carry out their duties.

Diocesan/Association Sports Representatives will often work with conveners by supporting activities that are held in their local area. Often it is the local community’s hospitality that provides the most memorable moments. Special mention must go to the rural areas that have a wonderful way to ensure all have a good time. I also acknowledge your efforts to ensure your students are given the opportunity to attend NSWCCC selections when at times cost and isolation are great barriers. Special thanks to Fiona Stuart who represented Broken Bay while Amber McDonnell was on maternity leave. Also Chris Dutfield from MCS whose calmness and sense of justice were well recognised within the NSWCCC Council.

Thank you to the school principals who support and value the representative sports program. Your support and encouragement of staff and students to attend events of the representative pathway is acknowledged and appreciated.

Sports Co-ordinators – No organisation is successful unless it has people working at the grass roots level. Your tireless efforts to be the first port of call to the student and parents are necessary and appreciated.

Thank you to the parents who provide oppurtunities to their children to use their god given talents.

To over 800 students who have accessed the represented sport pathway - School. Diocesan/Association, NSWCCC, All Schools or School Sport Australia level, thank you for sharing your talents in a gracious way. We pray your achievements continue and that you may share your talents with others.

Please take time to look through this report and take note of the names and schools of these people.

I have enjoyed working with all groups and look forward to 2013.

DIOCESE OF ARMIDALE

NSWCCC ANNUAL REPORT 2012

The Diocese of Armidale covers a large area of north-west NSW with just five secondary schools – McCarthy College Tamworth, O’Connor College Armidale, St Mary’s College Gunnedah, Holy Trinity School Inverell and St Philomena’s School Moree. All schools are thankful for the opportunity to participate in the various sports offered by NSWCCC. While our diocese is large in area it is small in numbers and we combine with Bathurst/Wilcannia-Forbes Dioceses for Touch, Football and Rugby Union. This arrangement has been in place for several years now and is working well thanks to Linda Densmore and the many teachers involved in organising the combined teams.

Congratulations to Megan Isbester (St Mary’s College Gunnedah) on receiving her NSWCCC Blue Award for Cross Country at the 15th NSWCCC Blue Award Presentation at the start of this year. Students who either won a medal at NSW All Schools or were selected in a NSW All Schools team this year were:

Isaac Farmilo McCarthy Catholic College Tamworth Hockey James O’Brien O’Connor College Armidale Hockey Megan Isbester St Mary’s College Gunnedah Triathlon Jackson Ludlow St Mary’s College Gunnedah Triathlon Sophie Heeney McCarthy Catholic College Tamworth Triathlon Ellie Camilleri McCarthy Catholic College Tamworth Triathlon Bronte Ellicott McCarthy Catholic College Tamworth Triathlon Max Houlahan St Philomena’s Moree Cricket Megan Isbester St Mary’s College Gunnedah Cross Country

Students who either won a medal at NSWCCC Championships or were selected in a NSWCCC Team (in addition to the above) were: Ben Hanlan O’Connor College Armidale Hockey Zach Martin St Mary’s College Gunnedah Tennis Emily Osmond St Mary’s College Gunnedah Tennis Sophie Heeney McCarthy Catholic College Tamworth Cross Country Brodii Ingram McCarthy Catholic College Tamworth Touch Chloe Coe McCarthy Catholic College Tamworth Touch Brittany Coe McCarthy Catholic College Tamworth Touch Kieran Weston O’Connor College Armidale Swimming Emma Barnes McCarthy Catholic College Tamworth Tennis Gemma Campbell McCarthy Catholic College Tamworth Tennis Zoe Martin McCarthy Catholic College Tamworth Tennis Melanie Pearson McCarthy Catholic College Tamworth Tennis Darcey Martin McCarthy Catholic College Tamworth Tennis Megan Isbester St Mary’s College Gunnedah Athletics Sophie Heeney McCarthy Catholic College Tamworth Athletics Travis Stahlhut O’Connor College Armidale Athletics Siarrah Cruickshank O’Connor College Armidale Athletics

This year some of our teams were outstanding in their sporting competitions. McCarthy College Tamworth won the Girls Teams Tennis at Bathurst for the second year in a row. McCarthy also tasted success in the U16 Boys Hockey Championships held at Bathurst. For many of the NSWCCC competitions a Gala Day is held in the Armidale Diocese to determine our winner to go on in the competition and this has proved to continue to be a successful way of running the competition locally. Tamworth hosted this year’s NSWCCC Touch Championships and despite a very cold and miserable day all games were completed and the representative teams selected on the day. Special thanks to Kim Coe for all her hard work in organising the day.

Thanks to the individual School Sports Organisers for all their help and assistance this year. The introduction of the new website certainly posed a challenge. Jason Auld (St Philomena’s Moree), David Koch and Peter Ehsman (Holy Trinity Inverell), Greg Jones (O’Connor College Armidale), Mark Falkenmire (McCarthy College Tamworth) and Tim Kennedy (St Mary’s College Gunnedah) along with many enthusiastic staff and parents from each school have all worked well to ensure our students are given the best sporting opportunities available. The School Principals deserve a special mention for 16 their continued support in allowing our students to be involved in school sport and being patient with the new website. Mr. Tony Moran (Principal St Mary’s College Gunnedah) was once again Chairman of the Armidale Diocesan Secondary Sport Council and his continued support has been greatly appreciated. The Armidale Diocesan Investment Group (ADIG) continues to contribute funds to assist those students who go on to represent NSW All Schools at School Sport Australia events.

Finally, a huge vote of thanks to all involved with NSWCCC Sport – teachers who assist with teams, team managers, selectors, officials, First Aid, conveners, committee members and of course the NSWCCC Executive and especially Kym Skerritt. Without the hard work that you do we would not be able to offer the sporting opportunities that we do to our students. Sport is an important part of school life and without the sports that we can offer we would lose students to other schools. We look forward to being involved again next year.

Tim Kennedy Armidale Diocesan Secondary Sport Coordinator

We are aware, and very appreciative, of the many hours Cowra you contribute over and above the actual day of the carnival.

Special mention needs to be made this year of the introduction of the online entries, registrations and consent forms. Staff, parents and students St Matthew’s Catholic School were very adaptable to the changes and next year will see us progress a Mudgee little further in this area.

CHRISTIAN BROTHERS’ SPORTS ASSOCIATION

NSWCCC ANNUAL REPORT 2012

The challenge for schools is to cater for a wide variety of sports and talented students and to be inclusive for without discrimination. The sporting calendar is becoming more crowded each year and more demands are being placed on schools by many different interest groups. With the sporting year being so busy it is amazing that Sports Coordinators in all CBSA schools complete the calendar with such efficiency. Events and competition available to the students are vast and varied. As the year comes to an end we take this opportunity to reflect on our involvement this year.

CBSA competed in a range of events and competitions run by NSWCCC. The CBSA is ever grateful to the sport convenors for the work they have put in to running their sports and the carnivals for our students. The convenors are often giving up much of their own free time, and through this generosity, many of our students gain wonderful experiences at the CBSA level of competition and sometimes beyond. These opportunities are gratefully received by students and enrich their experience of catholic schooling.

CBSA competed at the NSWCCC swimming, athletics and cross country championships and are grateful for the work done by all concerned at these very large carnivals. As ever they were efficiently run and provided a valuable pathway and experience for our students in these sports.

CBSA also sent teams to sports such as touch football, football, rugby league, rugby union baseball and volleyball. Our students enjoyed these competitions and the chance to compete against other sporting organisations and athletes in the NSWCCC structure. These team events help to develop camaraderie and friendships for students across schools. Many students from CBSA also trialed for a range of other sports as individuals in golf, tennis and triathlon

We had many students gain representation in NSWCCC teams throughout the year most notably in Volleyball (6) and Touch Football (2). Other sports with CBSA representation at the NSWCCC level were swimming, cross country, golf and rugby union

Several students were also nominated for Blue Awards. Congratulations to Evander Pele (DLS Revesby) who received a Blue Award for Volleyball and to Nathan Dickinson (DLS Revseby) who received a Blue Award for Softball.

CBSA would like to offer it’s thanks to all the sports convenors, diocesan representatives and the executive of the NSWCCC organisation. We acknowledge the huge amount of work that goes on, frequently unnoticed, to make these opportunities available to our students. The ever increasing administration serves to highlight the work done by these people which provides opportunities for all our students in Catholic schools. This is truly appreciated by all principals, teachers, parents and students in CBSA schools.

Several of our teachers gained appointments to coach or manage NSWCCC teams throughout the year and these appointments provided tremendous opportunities for those staff members. Again this could not happen without the framework provided by NSWCCC. The standard of competition by students and the quality of the events held is always impressive to those who attend. Our students enjoy representing CBSA and look forward to competing at all NSWCCC events. They gain lasting memories and opportunities from these events.

Our schools and the Principals remain fully supportive of the pathways and opportunities provided by NSWCCC and we look forward to continuing our involvement next year.

CATHOLIC GIRLS’ SECONDARY SCHOOLS SPORTS ASSOCIATION

NSWCCC ANNUAL REPORT 2012

This year at the 15th Blue Award Presentations CGSSSA schools were extremely well represented with eight girls who use the CGSSSA as a pathway being recognised for their sporting talent, dedication and commitment to, their chosen sport. All those who have worked in partnership; teachers, sports administrators, parents and athletes have contributed to the success of these athletes success through the provision of fantastic sporting opportunities for them and for the many other students in CGSSSA schools.

The following students sporting achievements in 2011 were recognised at the Blue Awards in February this year:

Athletics Melissa-Maree Farrington Trinity Catholic College Auburn/Regents Park Bar Basketball Emma Plunkett Trinity Catholic College Auburn/Regents Park Bar Swimming Carlee Milikin Loreto Kirribilli Blue Tennis Shannon Cleary Brigidine College Randwick Bar Volleyball Elizabeth Borger Santa Sabina College Strathfield Blue Volleyball Caroline Stalmachowski Santa Sabina College Strathfield Blue Water Polo Morgan Baxter Santa Sabina College Strathfield Bar Water Polo Stephanie Calaizis St Clare’s College Waverley Blue

Morgan Baxter’s exceptional talent and sportsmanship was recognised at the Blue Awards when she was announced as the recipient of the prestigious Vince Villa Award.

During 2012 CGSSSA held 17 championship and selected teams in Swimming, Athletics, Cross Country, Football and Touch to compete at NSWCCC events. These events were run efficiently and provided great competitive opportunities for students. CGSSSA teams proved to be highly competitive in most sports again this year. In addition to the success of CGSSSA teams this year a number of CGSSSA students attended and achieved success at individual trials. The new structure for knock out soccer was well received and seemed to resolve a number of difficulties experienced in previous year.

The athleticism and skill of many individual students from a variety of schools was acknowledged this year in their selection in NSWCCC teams and in some cases higher representative honours. This year 101 CGSSSA students were selected in a NSW CCC team, 20 were selected in a NSW All Schools Team and 3 students were selected in a School Sport Australia team. Additionally, in athletics about 40 students nominated and competed at the NSW All School Athletics Championships some of whom will progress to compete at the National Athletics Championships.

This year the CGSSSA has continued to work to maximise participation opportunities for girls who compete in championships events and has plans to continue this trend in 2013. Changing the structure and programs for some events has been effective in achieving change. Securing a commitment from team managers and officials early in the year has again been a challenge. The association Orientation Program conducted at the start of the year was again very successful and continues to benefit staff especially those new to the Association. The introduction of a Dropbox facility for the Association was also successful and way to optimise its use will continue to be explored in 2013. Risk management and compliance are now seen as the ‘norm’ and each school is for the most part diligent in meeting administrative requirements when convening and entering sports. Team selections and the management of representative teams went smoothly this year.

The introduction of the CSCC website this year was for the most part seen as a positive innovation. Despite some issues this year member schools are optimistic about the potential future benefits. The most significant issue this year was that much of the sports specific and pathway information did not appear on the website. This created some confusion and issues at a school level. The hard work, dedication and determination of staff in member school, NSWCCC Convenors and Kym Skerritt continue to underpin the success of Catholic school representative sport. Students gain much from participation in representative sport and it is fantastic to see that so many students in CGSSSA schools continue to access representative sporting opportunities through the school pathway and that they do so in such a wide range of sports. We continue as an Association to be grateful to the CSCC for their support and guidance in fostering ‘best practice’ at all levels of competition.

Congratulations and thank you to the many staff and students who have contributed to the success of sport in Catholic schools in 2012.

DIOCESE OF LISMORE

NSWCCC ANNUAL REPORT 2012

The Diocese of Lismore Sports Program has continued to have many successful outcomes throughout this past year. I extend another sincere thank you and well done to our dedicated school sport coordinators as well as to the various carnival and trial conveners, and team managers. Collectively they have made immeasurable contributions to sport in their schools and in the Diocese as a whole. Their commitment to and concern for providing the opportunities and pathways have enabled a very large number of students to benefit greatly from their positive experiences in sport.

I wish also to express my thanks to parents for their practical support of their children and for their assistance, with other volunteers, at carnivals and trials.

Indeed, a sincere thank you to anyone who contributed in any way to the success of school, Diocesan and CCC sport with special appreciation extended to principals and school executive for much–needed support.

Well done to all students who took part in sport at any level this year with special congratulations to those who went on to representative honours.

The many highlights of 2012 have included:  Another very impressive number of students from our secondary schools gaining selection into NSWCCC sides, with a select band of these, and also 3 teachers, making it into NSW All Schools’ teams including Madi Roberts (Triathlon and Cross Country), Laura Cook (Triathlon), Steven Taylor (Tennis), Lionel Conroy (Golf Team Manager), Jay Meaney (Athletics), Nicole Danvers (Hockey Team Manager), Mitchell Scotcher (Hockey), Ashlee Danvers (Hockey), Kate Wilson (Swimming), Shanice McCarthy (Swimming), Sharyn Gill-Andrews (Swimming Team Manager) and Jessie Flemming (Cross Country and Triathlon).  Three students went one better and gained selectionat the highest level by bing named in the School Sport Austrlia team for their respective sports: Mitchell Scotcher (St John’s Woodlawn) – Hockey, Michael Gahan (Woodlawn) - Baseball and Georgia Keen (Trinity Lismore) – Football.  The continued high level performances of our Diocesan Swimming team as a whole as well as some outstanding individual efforts at NSWCCC and beyond.  The excellent result of the Lismore team at the NSWCCC Athletics to finish prominently in the Diocesan/Association points table. This was indicative of some excellent performances by so many of our team members and was despite our greatly reduced team numbers following withdrawals. Special mention to two Lismore representatives: Mikey Lloyd-Tighe who finished Senior Girls AWD Champion and Jay Meaney for his record in the 17+ Boys 400m.  Trinity Catholic College Open Girls team defending its NSWCCC Football Knockout title.  John Paul College Coffs Harbour Open Girls Team winning the NSWCCC and NSW All Schools Basketball – certainly a rare feat for the latter.  Jessi Reeves (JPC Coffs Harbour) selection in the NSW All Schools Basketball team and winning a CCC Blue.  Chelsea Kewming (JPC Coffs Harbour) refereeing the SSA Under 19 Grand Final.  St John’s Woodlawn’s victory in the All Schools Under 15s Rugby League Country Cup.  MacKillop College Port Macquarie taking out the NSW CCC Teams Tennis event.  St Paul’s Port Macquarie taking out gold in the NSW CCC Intermediate team event.  St Paul’s Port Macquarie finishing undefeated in the CCC Netball Championships in the Minor Division.  The continued growth, interest and success in primary and secondary sport for children with disabilities.  The unmistakable sense of team spirit that seems to be a part of so many of our Diocesan teams Despite the varied locations from which our team members come. This same team spirit is very noticeable amongst school teams as well. A great amount of credit goes to our excellent team managers and, of course, to the students themselves.

Finally, congratulations and thank you to all Diocesan and CCC conveners, managers and officials, and all Diocesan representatives, with a special thank you and well done to Kym Skerritt, NSWCCCSA Executive Officer.

NSWCCC ANNUAL REPORT 2012

President Mr John Killeen Patrician Brothers’ College Fairfield Vice President Mr John Robinson Trinity Catholic College Auburn Treasurer/Secretary Mr Chris Dutfield Committee Members Mr Anthony Boccanfuso Trinity Catholic College Auburn/Regents Park Mr Heath Borg Patrician Brothers’ College Blacktown Mr Joe Lantz St Gregory’s College Campbelltown Mr Matthew Paton Marist College Dundas Mr Nicholas Lah Marist College Eastwood Mr Brendon Wallace Patrician Brothers’ College Fairfield Mr Marc Romano St Paul’s Catholic College Greystanes Mr Chris Sutton All Saints College Liverpool Mr Brad Scanlon /Mr Tim Woodbine Parramatta Marist High Parramatta Mr Tim Spain St Dominic’s College Penrith Mr Layne Mellish Terra Sancta College Quakers Hill/Schofields Mr Chris Whitty Holy Cross College Ryde

I would like to thank all the Principals, Sports Coordinators, staff, students and families from each of the colleges within the Metropolitan Catholic Schools Sports Association for their support and congratulate them on their sporting excellence throughout 2012. The Association was once again very successful in both team and individual competitions.

Gratitude is expressed to the following Colleges for their convening of the nominated MCS Sports for the 2012 season – Auburn (Basketball), Blacktown (Soccer), Campbelltown (Cross Country), Dundas (Athletics); Eastwood (Cricket/Rugby 15s); Fairfield (Touch Football); Greystanes (Rugby League), Liverpool (Swimming), Parramatta (Rugby 10’s), Penrith (Golf), Quakers Hill-Schofields (AFL) and Ryde (Tennis/Rugby 7s). The majority of these sports are played during our weekly Thursday afternoon competitions. Through these sports we hope to foster and promote the importance of participation, sportsmanship and friendship. They are also an opportunity to offer elite competition and as a result they are extremely important to the development of our students and the association’s success.

The MCS enters squads into the NSW CCC Championships for Athletics, Baseball, Cross Country, Rugby League, Rugby Union, Soccer, Softball, Swimming, and Touch Football. The coaches, managers, trainers, selectors and officials who create, organize and prepare our squads for participation at this elite level are tremendously appreciated by all the MCS Colleges. They come from within our Colleges and add to the spirit, professionalism and dedication offered to all of the representative players who competed in 2012. We are hugely in their debt and I take this opportunity to express to them our sincerest appreciation.

In this 45th year of the MCS Sports Association we once again provided large numbers of our students for representative honours at either NSWCCC, NSW All Schools or Australian Schoolboy competitions. The boys performed extremely well, they had more than their fair share of wins and a great many students distinguished themselves as fine ambassadors of schoolboy sport. For seven of our elite Sportsmen this has culminated in the highest honour as recipients of NSW CCC Blues awards.

Special mention must also go to All Saints College Liverpool whom won the NSW CCC Junior Boys Football knockout, St Gregory’s College Campbelltown who won the NSW CCC Downie Trophy Opens Cricket knockout and Patrician Brothers’ College Blacktown who won the NSW CCC RL Cup for the second year in a row and were also crowned National Schoolboy Champions upon winning the GIO Cup.

Finally, the association’s sincerest appreciation is extended to Mr Chris Dutfield our outgoing Secretary/Treasurer of the past 3 years. The wisdom, experience and support that he offered our association and the member schools will be missed.

Heath Borg MCS Secretary/Treasurer

SOUTHERN SYDNEY COMBINED CATHOLIC COLLEGES SPORTS ASSOCIATION

NSWCCC ANNUAL REPORT 2012

2012 has been another year in which the Southern Sydney Combined Catholic Colleges Sports Association has continued to grow and develop. The association facilitates and enables students from a variety of Catholic schools to compete against each other in an atmosphere of healthy competition.

The key initiative for 2012 from NSWCCC was the introduction of the NSWCCC website. www.csss.nsw.edu.au The Website aimed to remove the paper trail and provide a system that provided competitors, parents, conveners and coaches with upto date information, as well as providing an accurate system that could see students progress from a school, diocese, NSWCCC, NSW All Schools and Austalian Team levels. There were some teething problems but the website was serving its purpose.

From a SSCCC perspective the advantages of the website could be seen but the administrative work that needed to be completed did give diocese representatives the feeling that the website as professional as it was, was making more work in the short term. The updates that have been made from feedback given have made it very exciting going into 2013. Students in 2013 will need to register online to attend the SSCCC trials. The website will then forward information to Sports coordinators from individual schools will have the power to accept the nomination for their student to go further.

2012 has been another outstanding year for SSCCC. The opportunity for the students to compete at this level against other athletes is invaluable in their development as a sportsperson. I would like to thank Principals, staff, parents and students involved with SSCCC for their continued support of sporting excellence in 2012.

SSCCC students participated in the following NSWCCC competitions as an association: Athletics, Baseball, Cross Country, Boys and Girls Football, Rugby League, Rugby Union, Swimming, Tennis, and Touch. SSCCC students had the opportunity to enter as individuals in AFL, Basketball, Diving, Golf, Netball, Softball, Triathlon and Volleyball. College teams were also heavily involved in various NSWCCC Knockout competition which ran throughout the year. Highlights from these knockouts were St Pats and Bosco both traveling to Lismore in the NSWCCC Football ¼ finals, Aquinas winning their ¼ final in Muwillumbah and making the Semi finals at Seymour Shaw Miranda.

Conveners are to be commended on their efforts on ensuring all trials were conducted in a professional manner, giving opportunity to students from all schools. With the constant added pressures within the school time given in developing teams, training and the events themselves your time and dedication is greatly appreciated.

Representing SSCCC has become an honour that requires students to display both on field mental and physical abilities to be selected to participate at the NSWCCC Championships. The high level of ability shown at the trials demonstrates the talent that continues to develop in the Southern Sydney Region.

The following SSCCC students were successful in receiving Blues Awards for 2012. This award is given to students who have achieved NSW All Schools Representation as well as performing as the most outstanding athlete in their chosen sport both on and off the field.

Kyle McIntosh Cross Country St Patricks College Sutherland Joanna Martino Football Freeman Catholic College Bonnyrigg Chris Naumoff Football Aquinas College Menai Ryan Proctor Hockey St John Bosco College Engadine Samuel Fowler Swimming DLS College Caringbah Samuel Cocokios Waterpolo DLS College Cronulla

I would like to commend and congratulations NSWCCC Conveners and officials on your professionalism and enthusiasm in allowing our students reach their full potential. The continued development of the website is ensuring that our students are up to date. A special thanks and congratulations to Kym Skerritt the NSWCCCSA Executive officer for a successful 2012.

It has been a pleasure to be amongst such committed SSCCC staff during 2012. This commitment is also reflected by the level of dedication and talent shown by students. SSCCC representation is an important recognition and pathway for our students..

2012 has been a busy, yet rewarding year for the staff and students of the schools that make up Sydney Catholic Colleges Sports Association (SCC). This year saw an increase in energy and commitment to the use of the NSWCCC pathway, a more genuine and competitive approach to NSWCCC events and a greater commitment to building team spirit and pride within our association. The opportunities provided by NSWCCC for our students to compete at representative level, against other schools and school systems is appreciated by our students, teachers and parents.

This year many students were able to progress through to representing NSWCCC. Our highlights included teams competing at the NSWCCC swimming, cross country and athletics carnivals. These carnivals were professionally run and students appreciated the chance to compete at such a high level. We also entered teams in football, touch football and softball. Many students also attended individual trials throughout the year for a wide range of sports run by NSWCCC. Several students gained representation in NSWCCC teams throughout the year.

The increase in students participating in the structured sports programs offered by SCC Sports Association has strengthened the representative teams that compete in NSWCCC sporting events. SCC is looking forward to 2013 with much anticipation.

SCC would like to offer it’s thanks to Kym Skerritt, all the sports convenors, Diocesan representatives and the Executive of the NSWCCC organisation. We acknowledge the huge amount of work that goes on frequently unnoticed to make these opportunities available to our students.

DIOCESE OF WAGGA WAGGA

NSWCCC ANNUAL REPORT 2012

Wagga Wagga Diocese has completed another hectic sporting year for our staff and students through the Combined Catholic Colleges Sporting Association (CCC).

Our year started off on a high when Jim Carroll (MDCC) was awarded a prestigious NSWCCC Blue Award. This recognised his success in AFL as he was named in the Australian U15’s team which went on the inaugural tour of . It was also great that our Director Alan Bowyer could be in attendance as a guest and presenter to display his support for CCC sport. He was impressed by the showcase and the sporting ability of all the awardees presented on the evening.

We have achieved great success across our Diocese with a large number of students being named in NSWCCC teams with some progressing to the NSW All Schools Honour roll and two students were selected in Australian representative teams. NSW All Schools Honour roll: • Jock Cornell AFL (MDCC) – Australian Representative • Jacob Hopper AFL (SFC) – Australian Representative • Mitchell Hardie AFL (SFC) • Lachlan Leeds AFL (SFC) • Harry Tanner AFL (XHS)

• Caleb Noble Cross Country (KCC)

Wagga Wagga hosted the Southern Country U15’s and Opens Rugby League trials where many future NRL players begin their sporting careers. This was done in collaboration with Stephen Hooper (Wilcannia/Forbes), John Sparks (Wollongong), Linda Densmore (Bathurst) and Kerrie Johnston (Canberra/Goulburn). Appreciation is extended to them all and we look forward to hosting the Sothern Country trials again in 2013. Wagga Wagga was also the host for Southern Zone AFL Trials. Thanks to Mark Sanson (Xavier High School) and Travis Doyle (St. Francis College) for organising the successful trials.

On a personal note I would like to pass on my thanks to the Wagga Wagga Diocese Sport coordinators Helen Fisher (Mater Dei Catholic College), Matt Conn (Kildare Catholic College), Mark Sanson/Andrew Gibson (Xavier Catholic College), Carl Norman (St. Francis College), Andrew Holloway (Marian CC) and all of their staff. They ensured we were able to consistently run each particular sport at a very professional and efficient level throughout the year. This allowed all of the students across the Riverina and MIA to enjoy the great opportunity to test their talents and skills against local, NSW and Australia’s best sporting students. Without your hard work and dedication Wagga Wagga Diocese sport would cease to remain the strong sporting body it is.

Thanks must also be extended to the Wagga Wagga Diocesan Secondary Schools’ Principals for their support of CCC sport throughout the year. I would also like to thank the players/students, parents, officials, team managers, teachers and coaches who have given up so much of their valuable time to participate and support Diocesan and CCC sport. The distances travelled by country students is great and the commitment they, and their families, make is amazing. They are all happy to do this at considerable expense to pursue excellence and enjoyment in sport through CCC pathways and this is commendable.

Congratulations to Kym Skerritt and the CSCC Executive for their continued support of sport in NSW Catholic Schools throughout 2012. The Wagga Wagga Diocesan Secondary Sporting Association is looking forward to an eventful 2013.

Yours in Sport,

Anthony Hood

DIOCESE OF WOLLONGONG

NSWCCC ANNUAL REPORT 2012

Schools from the Wollongong Diocese have enjoyed another great year of sporting activities through the Combined Catholic Colleges Sporting Association. The opportunities for our students to compete against other Dioceses and Associations from across NSW and the opportunity to access the All Schools arena has been greatly appreciated by students, parents and teachers of our school communities.

I would like to take this opportunity to acknowledge the work of the Catholic Sports Coordinating Committee, Diocesan/Association representatives and the individual Sports Conveners. Your efforts throughout the year have been outstanding and on behalf of the Wollongong Sports Council thank you for your contributions. To Kym Skerritt our Executive Officer for 2012, your work and support have again been the driving force behind the professionalism of the NSWCCC Sports Association. I have appreciated your professionalism, good nature and willingness to support all aspects of secondary sport. Thankyou!

The introduction of the new CSSS website has been positive but still provided many challenges at a local level. We have embraced it and continue to monitor it for best results for all teachers, students and parents. Wollongong had several teachers who contributed to CCC this year including Dean Merola (Holy Spirit College, Bellambi) who coordinated the Southern Country CCC cricket trials and Bob Cooper (St. Mary’s College, Wollongong) who convened the NSWCCC Volleyball selections. Dean was involved with CCC Boys cricket selections and was the U/16 NSW All Schools Boys cricket coach. The work of our conveners in promoting sport across NSW was first-class and certainly provided opportunities for increased student involvement. Over 345 secondary students represented the diocese at CCC events with 76 students from Wollongong going on to represent in NSWCCC teams and 9 gaining NSW All School teams honours. Wollongong diocese hosted the CCC Senior finals Basketball Tournament, the CCC tennis selection trials and CCC Southern country Cricket trials.

A special mention to our colleagues in Southern Sydney who have been the driving force behind the amalgamation of our U/16 and Open Rugby teams going to CCC selections. The work of Belinda Westwood (De La Salle College, Cronulla) and Aaron Poll (John Bosco, Engadine) has been very much appreciated.

On a local level I would like to thank our Director of Schools Peter Turner, Secondary Schools Head of Service, Alan McManus, Head of Religious Education and Learning Services, Mark Raue and my team leader of the Pastoral Care and Learning Support team, Cynthia McCammon for their continued support of Diocesan Sport. All have recognised the importance of sport and have assisted in promoting it to our Diocesan schools. Our CEO website continued to be a valued resource with our sporting journal fully on line and downloadable. This year it featured all representative teams, results from major carnivals and links to the CSSS, DEC and School Sport Australia sites. You might like to pay us a visit at www.dow.catholic.edu.au and navigate your way through the sport section. Our sports council has formed some close links with Wollongong University and now have students assisting at our carnivals and acting as officials at NSWCCC events. This has been a very productive relationship and one we hope to develop in the future.

Finally to my individual Sports Coordinators who are the cornerstone for all sporting activities, congratulations on an outstanding job. Your role is challenging, busy and often unrewarding at times, but again you have met the challenges put to you in fine style. Thankyou!

On Friday November 16 this year our Sports Council staged the 16th Annual CDF Diocesan Sports Awards to recognise the outstanding achievements of both students and teachers from primary and secondary Schools. The evening was proudly sponsored by the Catholic Development Fund and attracted over 500 guests to St Mary Star of the Sea College. The evening was a fitting culmination to a busy sporting year and certainly a positive advertisement for the pathways and structures now available. The Vince Villa Trophy was awarded to Holy Spirit College as the Champion Secondary School across all sports.

Wollongong Diocese looks forward to our continued involvement in Combined Catholic Colleges Sport. We wish all involved in secondary school catholic sport the best and hope to see you in action again in 2013.

NSW All Schools Report The NSW All Schools Carnival was held at North Dalton Park, Fairy Meadow (Wollongong) from Tuesday May 29 to Thursday May 31. The playing conditions were perfect not like the last couple of years that had been seriously affected by heavy rainfall.

The quality of students was very high and again the CCC and CIS schools complemented each other extremely well in order to produce a squad that was extremely competitive at the NSW CHS Championships. The ratio of CCC to CIS was 10 to 12.

A new CHS team, representing the Western region, took part in the Championships for the first time and this created a new nine team round robin format. NSWCCC/CIS North played against one of the highly fancied and traditionally strong Riverina Murray on the Tuesday. It was an extremely physical game and was played in good spirit and our North team finally ran out winners 10:5:65 to 1:0:6.

On Wednesday the North team completed two games. The first game was against a very determined West Darling and the North team finally ran out winners 10:10:70 to 2:1:13. The second game was against Riverina South West and again the North team did not find it very easy to over run another strong Riverina based team. The North team were pushed all the way and finally finished the game successfully winning 8:6:54 to 0:3:3.

The NSWCCC/CIS South team was also successful in their three games and the two teams finally met on the Thursday playing the final. The game was played at a frenetic pace in perfect conditions. It was a showpiece for the NSW All Schools selectors and all the spectators in the grandstand. The North team did not capitalize on the scoring opportunities they had and the South team defended superbly and made their shots count. South ran out winners 5:2:32 to 3:7:25.

Congratulations to coach Mark Sanson and his team. The game was played at the highest level and in good spirit. As a result of this great final the NSW All Schools selectors chose seven South and six North players to represent their state at the School Sport Australia Championships in Adelaide.

All players selected were very good members of the team structure, ambassadors for their schools and families and all mixed well. They all shared the workload on the field, demonstrated courtesy, respect, sportsmanship and excellent behaviour at all times during the Carnival. Their contribution to the team was always positive and in doing so was able to play football at the highest level.

James Furey (Team Manager) from St. Paul’s HS Booragul was once again teriffic to work with. All aspects of team managing were professionally attended to and the coordinating of the team over the Carnival was done to perfection. Brett Somerville (Assistant Coach) from Riverview College, and the AFL, is always a pleasure to work with. His knowledge and expertise of the game is second to none. He has dealt with most of the players in weekend competitions and other representative pathways and had an insight to their playing abilities.

The NSW All Schools Sub Committee meeting was held on Monday evening. Shaun Brooker (CHS Convener) explained the following. Concerns were raised about the structure of the competition, as it is now a 9-team comp and the strength of the CCC/CIS teams. He also guaranteed the inclusion of the new Western team would be there permanently. Shaun explained that the AFL carnival is the only carnival that allows the CCC and CIS schools to compete as one and that the recommendation from the CHS meeting was the two CCC/CIS teams reform in the following format. CCC South, CCC North, and CIS. They also believed it was time for the split of the teams to happen so the carnival could move to a 10 team competition. Shaun asked the All Schools committee to vote on the recommendation and if passed asked Mark Sanson, James Fury, Stuart Lingham and Rick Joyce to take back to their member bodies for discussion. All Schools committee voted on CCC/CIS South and North to be rearranged into CCC South, CCC North and CIS. All areas voted in favour of the recommendation.

School Sport Australia Report The School Sport Australia Championships was held in Adelaide from July 20 to 29. NSW All Schools finished fourth for the carnival. The team had a team staff of four: Tim Sanson coach (Albury High School), team manager Andrew Oddie (Finley High School), assistant coach myself and AFL assistant Mick Clift (GWS).

The team had a training camp at St. Ignateus College Riverview in the second week of the holidays. Harry Dowling, from Trinity Anglican College Thurgoona, was a late addition to the team due to the knee injury of a Northern NSW player. Harry did come from the NSWCCC/CIS South Team.

All boys representing the NSWCCC/CIS systems played to a high level and all made a valuable contribution to the success of the team. The first game was on the Sunday, immediately after the Opening Ceremony held at the SA Netball Centre, against and NSW won 11.6.72 to 1.6.12. The game was a lot closer than what the score indicates and this is the first time in over 10 years NSW has defeated WA.

Game two was on the Monday against a strong SA team. Despite two bad injuries to NSW players, a broken collar bone and a grade three ankle ligament tear, NSW came from a 25 point three quarter time deficit to lose by 2 points. 6.11.47 to 6.9.45.

Tuesday was rest day and the third game was played on the Wednesday against the ACT. NSW ran out winners 16.12.108 to ACT 3.2.20. WA had a 3 point upset win against SA and as a result of this NSW finished top of Pool B. Thursdays game was the cross over games. Winner of Pool B had to play 2nd in Pool A. This happened to be Vic Metro. In a hard fought game NSW was finally defeated by Vic Metro 10.9.69 to 6.12.48. This set up a final day of NSW v SA again to play off for third whereas Vic Metro v Vic Country played for first place. Vic Metro won the Carnival by six points over Vic Country and SA defeated NSW by 23 points to take third place. Fifth to eighth finished with WA, QLD, ACT and NT in that order.

At the closing ceremony the Australian team was announced. Congratulations to Tim Coenen of Chevalier College Moss Vale, Callum Mills of Northern Beaches Christian School, Jock Cornell of Mater Dei Catholic College Wagga Wagga and Jacob Hopper of St. Francis De Sales Regional College Leeton in gaining selection in this team.

These were the best collection of students and family I have traveled away with. All families were so positive and all interacted superbly. It was a problem free Championships and congratulations to the Convener and SA Education Department in hosting a great Carnival.

NSW All Schools Report This year’s championships were held in Wollongong on the NSW south coast from Tuesday 29 May to Thursday 31 May. The ground was in magnificent conditions and the weather was superb. This gave all boys the opportunity to show their skills and talents against quality opposition.

The CCC/CIS Southern Blue Tongues first game was against the Sydney Brumbies. It took the boys until the second half to take control of the game and run out comfortable winners 10.6 (66) to 4.0 (24) Goalkickers: Hopper 3, Flynn 3, Dowling, Cornell, Roberts and Gregory 1 each. Best: Hopper, Hardie, Leeds and Cornell . On Day 2 our first game was against the Northern NSW Stallions. The boys exerted their authority on this game early in the first half and continued their domination in the second half. Scores were 11.5 (71) to nil. Goalkickers: Hopper 5, Cornell 2, Dowling 1, Tanner 1, Gregory 1, May 1. Best: Hopper, Cornell Tanner and Gregory.

In our second game for the day the Blue Tongues met the Riverina Murray Greys. The game was a close tussle early in the first half, but again the Blue Tongues got their running game going, and with some strong marking up forward, recorded their third straight win 10.5 (65) to 1.1 (7) Goalkickers: Dowling 3, Irvine, May, Gaffney, Hopper, Daniher, Flynn and Roberts 1 each. Best: Bance, Hardie Leeds and Hopper. The Blue Tongues needed to maintain their intensity for their last game against the Northern CCC/CIS Bullants on the final day. The final was closely contested with the Bullants spreading well in the first half, but kicking a wasteful 1 goal 5 behinds to take a 3 point lead to half time. A tough and aggressive second half saw the Blue Tongues class players stand

51 up and win some crucial contested ball. 4 goals to 2 in the second half helped the Blue Tongues come away with a close win 5.2 (32) to 3.7 (25). Goalkickers: Hopper 1, Flynn 1, Cornell 1, Banks 1 and May 1.

Best: Hopper, Irvine, Bance, Leeds and Cornell. This result meant the Southern NSW CCC/CIS Blue Tongues were crowned state champions for 2012. A fantastic result for a great group of boys.

Jacob Hopper was named player of the carnival and Jock Cornell was named Southern CCC/CIS’s best player.

NSWCCC Selections Report The NSWCCC Selections heralded a new era for NSWCCC. The first true test of the new website based registration for team sports.

Once again, we were blessed with great weather and teams on an enthusiastic high, ready for some competition. Five Diocese represented as individual teams this year – Broken Bay, MCS, Parramatta, Lismore and Southern Sydney. A sixth teams, the Convenor’s team, fielded representatives from numerous other Diocese.

The first round of play was dominated by some excellent pitching, especially from Parramatta starter, Zac Shepherd. Behind his strong arm, Parramatta jumped out to an early 9-0 lead. In true gritty style, MCS responded in the latter stages of the game, and through this tough fightback, took a 10-9 lead which they held till games end. In the other first round fixture, Broken Bay proved once again that they can manufacture a competitive side. Some tight pitching early help the Team from the Beach settle into an early lead. Only a late flurry of runs from Lismore brought the score to an exciting finish, with Broken Bay saving an 8-7 win.

Round Two had MCS maintain its unbeaten run in Diocesan play that they have established over the past two years. A competitive Southern Sydney outfit battled hard, but could not get the batted ball to fall safely and eventually fell to the MCS team 7-5. Following their long pilgrimage from the North Coast and their first round defeat, Lismore got on the offense from the start of play. Solid pitching and great hitting had Lismore score a commanding 9-0 defeat over the Convenors team.

Whilst defeated in this game, this team was very competitive and very well managed. Congratulations must be given to the Manager, Eryn Shipp, for her efforts on the day. Eryn did an amazing job, coordinating players who have not trained or played together before, and giving them opportunities in both offense and defence to showcase their skillset before the selectors. An outstanding job!

This coordination proved to be a masterstroke, for in the Third and final round of play, the Convenors team caused what many considered to be a great upset, defeating the team from Broken Bay 6-2. The final result between Parramatta and Southern Sydney was not submitted.

The end result was a case of both a first and a second for the Diocese of Lismore. The final for/against for runs score saw Lismore beat out MCS and become Champions for the second time (after a previous tie for first with Broken Bay). Much more sweet was that this time, they were outright Champions!

All Schools Report The friendly confines of Baseball Park, Springfield, on the beautiful Central Coast provided a warm welcome for the participants represent all three sectors for the 2012 all School Championships. A beautiful prepared ground awaited some of the best schoolboy talent in NSW.

Following the unfortunate defeats in both All Schools games in 2011, NSWCCC sought to avenge the mistakes of games past and started very strong plating three runs in the First inning following hits from Jacob Youngberry and Nathan Skinner against an outstanding pitcher in Andrew Riddell from NSW CIS. Riddell struck out five NSWCCC batters in his three innings of work.

Hits in the Third inning from Adam Barbaro, Zac Shepherd and Callen Robertson added another two runs. Michael Gahan was outstanding on the mound for NSWCCC. In his 6 2/3 innings of work, Gahan gave up only one earned run, two hits whilst striking out five NSWCIS hitters. As his pitched count heightened, NSW CIS managed to get bat on ball, along with two errors from the NSWCCC managed to score four runs in the top of the Sixth inning to trail 5-4.

Wanting to secure the first win, NSWCCC went to their bullpen early and used the starting pitcher for the next game, Zac Shepherd, in relief. Being on a very tight pitch count, Shepherd went straight to work and struck out four hitters over the next two innings. Unfortunately, there was no crystal ball available. The NSWCCC team responded to the four runs scored knocking in seven runs of their own in the bottom of the Sixth to stretch their lead to eight runs. Hits from Nathan Skinner, and Tim Wakefield assisted by errant pitching helped to produce this massive innings. Having now used Shepherd, he could no longer pitch in the next game.

Another run was scored in the Seventh after a double from Tom Youngberry with two more scored in the Eight with consecutive outfield hits from Jesse O’Connell, Jacob Youngberry and James Phillibossian to extend the lead to the final score of NSWCCC 16 NSW CIS 4.

Game Two of the double header saw Alex Richardson start from the mound and he dominated from the outset. Whilst not overpowering, Richardson tied up the more fancied NSWCHS hitters giving up only one earned run and one hit, whilst striking out four in his 3 1/3 innings. By the time he was relieved by Sam Giulieri, NSWCCC were leading 2-1. Bill Daly replaced Giulieri in the Sixth and allowed the CHS hitters to get on top where they scored two runs and took the score out to a 3-2 lead. Sensing an upset, NSWCCC responded by putting a runner into scoring position in the Seventh but were not able to capitalise.

The Eighth inning proved crucial. Forced replacements meant our defensive structure was altered and an error by the replacement player allowed CHS to score two runs. CHS then went to their closer who stood up to the challenge that the NSW CCC bats offered. A very competitive NSWCCC went down fighting 5-3.

All players and Coaching staff must be congratulated on their outstanding level of competition on the day. The team was rewarded with four players being chosen to represent NSW at the School Sport Australia Championships in Adelaide.

School Sport Australia All players conducted themselves admirably and were a credit to their families and their sports associations. Zac Shepherd was once again outstanding in defense all week. Other than the final where he made some uncharacteristic errors, he was a leading part of the defensive structure of the team. He made some outstanding plays and was awarded the Shortstop in the All Star team.

Considering the fact that he is a younger player and constantly under the eye of scouts (video cameras all come out when he fields the ball and stands at the plate) he handled the pressure with ease.

Nathan Skinner battled hard throughout the tournament and represented NSW proudly.

Tim Wakefield started the week as the second catcher but performed well enough behind the plate that he forced his way into the No.1 catching spot and therefore caught the most important games of the week including the final. He was extremely solid defensively and so much so, that he was awarded the coveted "Golden Glove" award for the statistically best defensive player of the tournament. He threw out some runners in crucial times to change the nature of matches. As a result of his strong allround performance was also named as the Catcher in the All Star Team.

Michael Gahan performed pretty well as a pitcher and started the semi final qualification game. He performed well in his outings.

NSW All Schools Report The girls played CIS in the first game which was a very close game from the outset. We ran out winners eventually by 72 – 69 with all girls playing well in their first official hit out together, after only one training session together. In the second game we held CHS until half time with only 1 point separating the teams. However CHS surged ahead in the third quarter after some great defensive pressure and went on to eventually win by 70 – 51.

Jessi Reeves played well in both games in her debut for NSWCCC and was rewarded with selection in the NSW All Schools team. Also Madison Doorn and Georgia Ohrdorf played very consistently and they too were rewarded with selection in the NSW All Schools team.

Wendy Kokegei coached for the second year and we also had the very experienced Gail Henderson as Assistant Coach. It was great to have Gail on board with her many years of coaching experience.

NSWCCC Selections Report With the first online registration process for NSWCCC selection, many were not aware of the new requirements or found this process quite difficult resulting in myself doing up some photocopies of how to enroll and handing them out at NSWCCC Regional Carnivals. This new process will become a lot easier once all students at all schools become more aware of the online registration via active sports coordinators. However, it was quite positive in that it allowed a high quality of athletes to trial and information was already on hand for the coaches of their previous achievements and experience via their submissions. Overall, we had 51 male athletes trial with a strong group of about 15 athletes at the end of the trial making it quite difficult to make final team selections. The facilities for the trial were very accommodating and easy to conduct given the high quality venue.

NSW All Schools Report NSW All Schools Selections Date: Monday 4th June 2012 Training Session: Saturday 2nd & 3rd June 2012 (St Dominics College) Venue: Knox Grammar School

Game 1: Loss to CIS by 38 points In this game we started off very well with some strong defensive intensity and saw all players contributing offensively. We managed to be up by 5 going into the first quarter, due to sharp shooting from Ben Kearins and some outstanding defence from Keelan Ward. However CIS switched to a Half Court Press late in the 2nd quarter, which resulted in some costly turnovers and they managed to claw themselves back into the game. Then their strong inside presence continued to dominate the rebounds with our team in foul trouble. CIS capitalised on this opportunity and had too much depth for the CCC Boys. CIS ran away with the victory quite convincingly. Benjamin Kearins was a standout offensively scoring 20+ points, whilst Xavier Cooks led the team well as captain. .

Game 2: Draw to CHS in Overtime After a tough first game, The first period was very much the same and saw both teams start well with us having a small margin after the first quarter. We continued to build on this lead in the Second Quarter with some strong rebounding from Nicholas Bagaric. Then through the rotation of players, CHS managed to climb their way back into the game in the 3rd quarter. However, to our credit, we responded well in the fourth quarter and with high level full court defensive pressure, going basket for basket in the final minutes Benjamin Kearins hit a huge 3 pointer on the buzzer to equal the scores and send the game into overtime. Then the scores changed constantly throughout the overtime period until CHS took a shot on the buzzer that controversely was waived away by one referee and counted by the other. The game was called a draw and was played in excellent spirit. Benjamin Kearins performed well again, showing he was the dominant scorer of the tournament whilst Nicolas Pozoglu showed he will be pushing for selection in the NSW All Schools Team next year by displaying some fine offensive finishing under pressure.

In hindsight with limited training compared to the other systems, we were quiet competitive, I would like to thank Luke Adams and Jeff Kilbourne for their assistance and support over the course of this event. Thanks also to new NSWCCC convenor Stuart Hanrahan and Kym Skerrit for their support within the NSWCCC program.

School Sport Australia Report The tournament was all it had lived up to be – very professional, some outstanding junior talent and of course NSW Men coming away with the Gold Medal for the third consecutive year. Benjamin Kearins (only NSWCCC representative) coming off the bench played a pivotal role in both the Semi Final and Final for NSW creating some great baskets and scoring a few of his own. Coach Rex Nottage (Newington College) proved why he is known as one of the best coaches in the state with some strategic game play and hours of video analysis of opponents proving to be a great mentor. The tournament was well organised and proved to be the pinnacle of our junior sport and is what all young aspiring basketballers should aim for given the opportunities from the tournament with numerous USA college scouts present. The NSW team trained for 8 sessions at Newington College prior to the tournament which obviously assisted in preparing the boys for the Tournament. The Dandenong Stadium was an excellent venue with great facilities. The Accommodation for the coaching staff was excellent and the majority of the organisation (i.e. flights, uniforms) was completed by NSW CHS stalwart Leonard Solman. This allowed myself to get an insight into the operation and obviously be more aware of the procedures for next year as Leonard Solman has retired from teaching.

BASKETBALL REGIONAL TOURNAMENT – COFFS HARBOUR

2012 ANNUAL REPORT

Thirty six teams from the Lismore Diocese descended on the Sportz Central complex in Coffs Harbour for the annual NSWCCC Regional Qualifying Carnival chasing coveted positions in the state finals later in the year. Despite a number of clashes with other events and trials all schools are to be commended for commitment in ensuring all teams entered attended the tournament. A big thank you to Trinity Lismore, St Mary’s Casino and Woodlawn. These schools had teams involved in the Marist Carnival on the Gold Coast leading into the Coffs Carnival.

All divisions were hotly contested with St Paul’s Port Macquarie, John Paul College Coffs Harbour and St John’s Woodlawn figuring heavily in all age groups.

YEAR 7/8 GIRLS John Paul College dominated this division with half of their team from last year’s being state finalists. St Paul’s Port Macquarie girls have continued to improve and will no doubt do well at the state finals in Tamworth. The final began as an arm wrestle but suffocating defence by the Coffs girls enabled them to skip away on the scoreboard and had the game sewn up at half time. JPC winning the final 39 – 17. YEAR 7/8 BOYS Again a division dominated by a John Paul College team that narrowly lost the state final last year. The JPC boys were too big and fast for their opposition with nearly all players in the team having years of NJL experience. St Paul’s Port Macquarie, Xavier Ballina and St. John’s Woodlawn fielded competitive teams with Port and Coffs qualifying for the state finals. John Paul College won the final 53 -18 in a one sided contest due to the depth of talent in the Coffs Harbour team which is expected to be very competitive at the state finals later in the year. YEAR 9/10 GIRLS Two teams dominated this division - John Paul College and St John’s Woodlawn. Both teams feature stifling defence and depth through the whole team. The pool game saw St John’s Woodlawn win by 10 points after dominating the latter stages of the first half. State selection trials and injury decimated a powerful JPC team. The final saw the Coffs girls slip out to an early 12 point lead which stunned the Woodlawn girls who missed easy baskets and failed to secure offensive rebounds. The Coffs girls failed to press home their advantage and the Woodlawn girls came back from 25 – 13 down with 5 minutes on the clock to nearly win the match. In a nail biter John Paul College won 27 – 26. YEAR 9/10 BOYS Very little separated 3 teams in this division with JPC, Woodlawn and St. Paul’s only losing 1 game each during the round games. Percentages were needed to separate the teams with Woodlawn unluckily missing out. The school will apply for a wildcard for the state finals. The final between JPC and St Pauls was a see-sawing battle until Port’s chief playmaker was fouled off early in the second half. The John Paul boys kept the defensive pressure on forcing a number of turnovers which they converted into points. To their credit the Port Macquarie side scored a number of outstanding baskets but finally went down 37 – 26 in the decider. YEAR 11/12 GIRLS Despite state representative Jessi Reeves absence the 2011 state champions JPC breezed through the carnival in first gear. The final was a similar story as the girls defeated St. Paul’s Port Macquarie 54 – 19. After winning the state final in double overtime last year, this JPC team will no doubt be a force again in 2012. YEAR 11/12 BOYS Woodlawn College and John Paul Coffs Harbour were the two dominant teams in the Open Boys division. JPC went into the final undefeated. The Woodlawn boys had lost only one game – by 3 points to JPC. The semi finals were between a plucky Xavier Skennars Head team and Woodlawn which saw the Woodlawn boys prevail 51 – 19.. The other semi was between JPC and MacKillop Port Macquarie with Coffs boys winning 84 – 54 in a game where defence took a back seat.

The final between JPC and Woodlawn saw the Coffs boys establish an early 12 point lead which despite a heavy foul count and injuries to key players, they managed to maintain that margin for the entire game running out 45 - 34 winners avenging last year’s loss to St John’s Woodlawn.

A very smoothly run carnival thanks to the hard work of stadium staff and NSWCCC officials. Referee co- ordinator Shauna Bastick did an outstanding job. Thanks also to Scott and Tracey Goodhand and Kathy Robson.

The following numbers of teams competed in this tournament. There was a slight decline in numbers in the boys section (the conflict with the Marist Tournament affected a couple of senior teams as did some school examination timing issues) The girls numbers were affected by a confusion over the entry of one school who had a team in each division.

Overall, the carnival ran very smoothly at both venues (Hawkesbury and Penrith) with no major problems arising over the two days. Refereeing was at a good standard and saw no real concerns. The supervisors of referees and schools were well in control and no negative feedback came back to myself. The splitting of venues as was done in 2011 went well in that the numbers meant that schools did not have to start too early or finish too late. However there is an inherent expense in this and for the numbers that finally participated we could have survived at the one 6 court venue.

BASKETBALL REGIONAL TOURNAMENT – TAMWORTH

2012 ANNUAL REPORT

CARNIVAL: The carnival itself ran exceptionally well. This year it was a smaller carnival which was much easier to manage (71 games). This was also enhanced by not using 2nd sides from individual schools unless needed for draw purposes (which didn’t happen in 2012). When we look at other carnivals and Tamworth’s viability, this needs to be taken into consideration as other carnivals had multiple sides from one school which makes their numbers look bigger. The new “Sports Dome” facility was exceptionally easy to use (6 Courts) and facilities were of a high standard. This allowed for a smooth running of the carnival.

WINNERS:

DIVISION BOYS GIRLS 7/8 ASC Lochinvar def MCC Tamworth 46-36 St John’s Dubbo def ASC Lochinvar 36-16 9/10 MCC Tamworth def San Clemente 52-50 ASC St Peters def St Josephs Lochinvar 52-27 11/12 MCC Tamworth def ASC Maitland 4-2 (Games series) ASC Maitland def St John’s Dubbo 47-15

REFEREES: This is becoming a major issue. This year we only received 4 referees from all the other schools that participated. I feel this is not acceptable. Out of 71 games 58 were refereed by Tamworth referees with most of these coming from MCC who were also playing. I feel for these students, as some played 4 games on the Friday and refereed 5. Then Saturday played 3 and refereed 3. Is this fair and equitable? Although we get great support from our local association referees, we can’t continue to shoulder the burden, especially when it’s our players who have playing commitments that fill the void. In future, we are looking at paying our referees more per game to encourage them to want to referee. Although, this will only work if schools do as they are required and bring referees. If schools can’t bring referees then we may need to look at other ways to force them to do so. For those that did assist I thank you!

FIRST AID: Having funding to appoint a first aid officer was a fantastic decision. We appointed a local sports medicine officer that was there for the duration of the carnival. This allowed us to focus on officiating and not first aid. I hope this continues. My only concern is that we don’t have anything official in place in terms of documentation if an injury occurs. I believe this needs to be addressed as we are leaving ourselves liable if it’s not documented. This year I used an “Accident” proforma from school but we may need to look at a CCC document.

REGIONS: The drawing up of regions this year was a good concept. As far as I was aware we were supposed to have the Bathurst Dio at our carnival, yet we had no nominations. Whether there was no nominations or they went to another carnival needs to be looked at. I do appreciate that the Sydney carnival is a closer option, but if we buckle in this area we leave ourselves open to precedent in the future. All schools have to travel for a variety of different sports (Eg: MCC went to Bathurst last year for hockey) and for the good of CCC basketball the stringent use of regions needs to be maintained.

DRAW: My main concern from this carnival was the need for schools to understand their commitment once they have nominated and paperwork is sent through. A lot of work goes into the draw and is put out as quickly as possible to allow schools adequate opportunity to be organised. IF a school nominates, then they have made the commitment to the carnival. If a school pulls out once the draw has been made, then they should be billed for their nomination. This was the case again this year with St John’s Dubbo pulling their 11-12 boys side the day before the carnival. Perhaps at CCC level, we need to look at schools paying nomination costs when nominating or making it exceptionally clear that once nominated, if they pull their side out of the championships they still pay their nomination fee.

Future Recommendations for all NSW CCC Basketball Carnivals: Address the issues with referees: Upon nomination schools need to nominate referees and can’t participate at the carnival unless referees are brought. If not, perhaps a monetary cost or fine needs to be issued. Continue the use of an official sports medicine officer. The need for official documentation if an injury occurs. Continue NOT having 2nd teams from each school unless required to do so for draw purposes.

BASKETBALL SENIOR FINALS

2012 ANNUAL REPORT

The senior finals were played with a great sense of sportsmanship over the two days and showcased the best catholic basketball teams across NSW. Thanks to all the coaches, team managers, players and supporters who contributed to the success of the finals by having their teams ready to play, on time for all games and all with a good attitude. My thanks also to my referee’s coordinator, Sandra Kolednik and court controller Mitch Sparks who ensured all games were all officiated and results collated.

The management of the Illawarra Sports Stadium, in particular Ian Richardson and Clare Lear were outstanding in their support and organisation and it was our pleasure to host the event at this venue.

Finally my thanks to NSWCCC Basketball Convener, Stuart Hanrahan and NSWCCC Executive Officer Kym Skerritt for their assistance with the lead up into the tournament.

As you can see with the results that follow we were reduced to 8 boys teams and 9 girls teams due to withdrawals but this certainly did not take away from the quality of the basketball.

Congratulations to our winning teams – John Paul, Coffs Harbour in the girls and Holy Spirit College, Bellambi in the boys and good luck to both squads as they progress into the all schools challenge.

Game 1: Metropolitan A v Northern Country XI Metropolitan A batted first and scored 6/208 from their 50 overs. Arjun Nair 64* [retired], James Arnold 35 not out, Anthony Adlam 29.

Fast bowlers Sam Yabsley [0/23] & Keyton Hislop [2/37] kept the batsmen on their toes with a lively opening spell with Sam Johnson 1/21 & Tom Scoble 1/15 also quite impressive.

In reply Northern Country got off to a good start with openers Cody Edstein-Boyes & Kade Fens putting on a 66 run partnership. Kade Fens was first out with a solid 21 while Cody Edstein-Boyes was dismissed for 48. After that the Metropolitan A bowlers dominated thanks largely to their spinners A Nair [5/20] & M Giumelli [1/27] who both bowled 10 overs of quality spin. The only other batsman to score well was Keyton Hislop who remained 41 not out at the end of the 50 overs with the team finishing on 8/159.

NSWCCC Selections Report On March 5, the CCC Girls cricket trials were held at Howell Oval indoor nets in Penrith. The venue served as a great location, with modern facilities and fantastically kept grounds. We had 33 registered girls from Catholic high schools from all over the state and the standard of players is improving every year – which is great for NSWCCC cricket. With six players from last years team completing year 12 and moving forward with their cricket, CCC has a young, experienced, new look team which will be captained by Keira Perry from Nagle College, Blacktown. Many thanks to Penrith Cricket Club for the use of Howell Oval’s indoor nets and facilities, to Medics Australia for supplying First Aid, to all players who made the trip to Penrith for the trials and especially to the parents for their continued support of their daughters in their cricket. Additional thanks to David Drew, Cricket NSW’s Coach Education & Training Manager and also the NSW coach for the Female Under 15s team, for his assistance in the selection process.

NSW All Schools Report From March 19th - 21st 2012, the NSWCCC Girls Cricket team travelled to Manly to complete in the NSW Schoolgirls Cricket Championships. The team captained by Kiera Perry, were competitive and played in the Spirit of Cricket.

On day one game one, the girls versed NSWCHS 2nds in a T20. Bowling first, we took all ten wickets (the last a run out on the last ball of the innings) and restricted CHS 2nds to 45runs. Our wickets comprised of four of the wickets being bowled, two LBW’s and three catches. Our Bowlers had set the match up for the team and the girls. However, we under-performed with the bat, with no one managing to get to double figures. We scraped the runs together and managed to pass CHS’s total in the 17th over. Recognision must go to Tanya Bailey who had figures of 1-5 off 4 overs, Kiera Perry (c) 2-15 off 3 overs, Chloe Coelho 1-12 off 4 overs, Julia Hunt 2-0 off 2overs and also Lauren Smith and Rebecca Miller who both had figures of 1-2 after 2 overs.

On day one game two, the girls versed a strong NSWCHS 1st team in another T20. Bowling first, we struggled to take wickets and we let the batters settle in. NSWCHS 1st’s total was 2-113 at the end of their 20 overs. After the poor batting performance in the mornings game against CHS 2nd’s , the CCC girls had something to prove. Lauren Smith and Samantha Arnold opened the batting and scored 43 (53) and 34 (34) respectively. However, from this good start of 0-77 at the end of the 14th over, and needing 36 runs from as many balls – we fell to pieces. In the 15th over we lost 3 wickets for 3 extra runs and were then 3-80. With two new batters at the crease, the job to be done became the little bit more challenging. The girls worked their way through the remaining overs but fell short of the target. At the end of 20 overs we were 6-93.

On day two, the girls versed tournament favourites NSWCIS in a 50 over match which was rain affected and was shortened to 45 overs. CCC bowled first and restricted CIS to 7/158, an extremely good effort. In the bowling department, Emma Felsch took the new ball and after eight overs had figures of 2-15 including 4 maidens, one of which was a double wicket maiden. Kiera Perry (c) after 9 overs had figures of 2-33 and Lauren Smith and Chloe Coelho also picked up a wicket each. Julia Hunt also bowled extremely well with 0-24 off 9 overs, with only 16

73 scoring shots from her overs; 5 of those were in her last over. Special mention to Lauren Smith who bowled 4 overs at the death after wicket-keeping for the majority of the game. After such a good good performance with the ball, we again let ourselves down with the bat. Lauren Smith was unlucky to be ran out on 18 and Alice O’Rourke always managed double figures of 12. From this, we were all out for 58 in the 32nd over. A performace, I’m sure, the girls learnt a lot from.

NSWCHS 2nd’s to determined 3rd and 4th positions. This was a 50 over match. The girls bowled first again with a good opening spell from Emma Felsch (0-7 off 5) and Julia Hunt (0-4 off 4) which kept CHS 2nd’s to 0-13 after 9 overs. From the 10th to the 20th CHS’s run rate was 4 per over, from 20 -30 it was 3 an over from 30-40 3.3 and from 40-50 it was 4 an over. At the end of their batting innings they were 8 – 150, which required us to score at 3 runs an over. Having learnt a lot from our previous games about the value of our wickets the girls dug deep and went in hunt of a win. However, we had a top order collapse and we were 4-22 after 15 overs. The girls did not give up, they showed real determination and grit and they slowly built the innings back up after everyone assumed CHS 2nd’s would run away with the match. The girls were stategic and communicated well between themselves and coaching staff. Claire Coelho and Clara Iemma built a nice partnership, adding 29 (48) and 26 (60) respectively. Eliza Bunner added 15 (32), Tanya Bailey 12 (17), Chloe Grey 15 (24) and Rebecca Miller 10* (10) all tried their best to reach the target of 151 but we ended up going down by 3 runs.

Overall, the NSWCCC Girls Cricket Team of 2012 won one game from four but definately completed, having CHS 2nd’s within one scoring shot and CIS tied down more than any other team managed. For the girls efforts we had two players named in the Honorary NSW All Schools Team. Congratulations must go to Lauren Smith and Emma Felsch for this achievement.

Kiera Perry, in her first year as captain did a terrific job leading her team around the oval. Many thanks to the Schools represented in the CCC team for supporting the talents of their students, they did you proud. Thanks also to Mrs Anne Neems for managing the team. Many thanks to Mr Ross Gawthorne for organising the tournament and also the NSWCCC Executive team for their continued support of development of Women’s Cricket through the Catholic School sector.

In addition to these, I’d also like to thank Cricket NSW for their role in the tournament, also the umpires, medics and grounds people. Cricket cannot be played without these passionate people and it is greatly appreciated.

Last, but by no means least, thankyou to the parents and families of the girls who have supported them in their cricketing endevours and for assisting with the transportation for the girls to and from each venue. It has been an incredibly enjoyable year.

NSWCCC Championships Report NSWCCC diving is always an enjoyable event. This year was no different with 32 divers representing several diocese and the emergence of a strongly competitive 12-13yr girls age group which bodes well for the future of CCC diving. There were also boys represented in the 13, 14 and 15yrs age groups for the first time, which if we can build upon this in the next few years, will see NSWCCC represented more diversely at NSW All Schools.

A special mention must be made to the 16 and 17+yrs girl’s age groups for their continued patronage and dedication. At this age level, the required dives become a lot more difficult and it is great to see the divers improving their skill level and degree of difficulty. Well done to the platform divers for their bravery and display of technical precision. I would like to encourage more divers to take up this challenge next year.

Once again, thanks must be given to Sue Milford SSA Diving Secretary for her work in creating data bases, spreadsheets, running the technical side of the event and refereeing. She performs the jobs of at least 3 people with ease. Thanks to the Diving NSW officials – Stan Pendall, Norma Holland and Allen Bull for their continued support of NSWCCC diving and welcome back Thomas Rickards, former NSWCCC diver, now coach of Santa Sabina.

Finally, thank you to the teachers of the schools involved, especially Stuart Guthrie (CGSSSA convenor, OLMC), Nathan Weaver (CCC manager, St Andrews) and Cath Gallagher (Santa Sabina) for their assistance on the day.

It is a great pleasure to convene this event each year and I look forward to increasing participation next year.

NSW All Schools Championships Report NSW All Schools is always a long but rewarding day for competitors, teachers, officials and volunteers. In 2012, NSWCCC had the maximum number of female competitors represented in all age groups on springboard as well as 4 individual boys on springboard, 1 male and 1 female diver competing on platform. All divers conducted themselves in an exemplary manner, supporting each other, training hard and competing in the spirit of the event.

83

Due to the expansion of NSWIS diving, it is ever difficult for our non-elite female CCC divers to place in the medals at All Schools, however, we had a strong representation in 4th and 5th places in extremely competitive events. Our sole medal, a bronze, was awarded to Kosta Fedes for his springboard event. Congratulations Kosta.

Special mention must go to Ellen Martin of Cerdon College who has been competing in NSWCCC diving since she was in yr 7. This year as a 16yr old, Ellen received her highest All Schools ranking, coming 4th behind 3 NSWIS athletes.

Unfortunately, no NSWCCC divers qualified for SSA in 2012 but I am confident as we continue to foster diving through schools, encourage our girls to come back each year and scout more male divers, NSWCCC will achieve well at this next level.

Once again, I need to commend the NSWCCC divers on their efforts and applaud the way in which they conducted themselves on the day. It is always a pleasure to manage and coach the divers and their schools should be extremely proud of them.

NSWCCC Selections Report After a successful CCC Selection tournament in Bathurst a promising group of footballers were brought together to contest the titles against the Independent and Public School bodies at Miranda.

The selection tournament went smoothly in Bathurst with a massive amount of games crammed into the day and a half timeslot. While the games are crammed into such a short time frame, you are never going to be able to select the best players possible in correct structure as the game conditions are unrealistic when we then transfer the team to the tournament play at the next level where game times are normal. The stress, risk of injury and abnormal nature of our selection tournament remains problematic. The added issue of field and lighting that was less than ideal, also needs to be addressed. When we compare this to our main rivals the CHS who spread their tournament over a number of days playing normal game times, it is a miracle that we are able to compete against them. The fact that we are continually able to be competitive is a testament to the quality of our boys, the coaching staff and the preparation we have been able to put into the team. We continue to over achieve.

Students selected in NSW All Schools Team Chris Naumoff Aquinas College Menai

All Schools Report The 2012 NSWCCC Boys football team completed another successful and satisfying season on the way to the All Schools’ Championships this year.

The preparation time between the CCC and All Schools’ Tournaments was very short this year which made things even more difficult than normal. Nevertheless, the team was well prepared by the coaching staff with games against a combination of U20 and First team players from Kogarah and Western Sydney. The CCC team was more than competitive in both games. The games coupled with two further training sessions meant that we were as well prepared as possible for what lay ahead. The excellent spirit within the team and our efforts to get games and training venues was also pleasing.

The All Schools’ tournament itself at Miranda began with a hard fought match over the CHS 2 side with a 1-4 loss. The result did not reflect the match as we were more than competitive for long periods before being punished for a couple of lapses in concentration. As things turned out however, this supposed no.2 CHS side ended up as winners! We backed up the next morning with quality 2-1 victory over the CIS in a game we dominated yet could not quite put the opposition away. As usual, it all came down to the traditional “Final” against our nemesis and tournament favourites the CHS1. In another wonderful performance we completely outplayed our opponents dominating from the start in an emphatic 2-1 win. Although the title eluded us on goal difference as we again finished equal first, the team can be well satisfied with their performance.

Unfortunately, the expected and hoped for places in the NSW team again eluded us as we finished with only ONE out of sixteen players selected in the team, Chris Naumoff despite again defeating the CHS 1 team. The result was again extremely disappointing while acknowledging that the All Schools Coach should be able to select the players he wishes. Unfortunately, Chris then withdrew from the squad before the Nationals which does not help our 85 cause possibly due to his signing for Sydney FC. It is hard to argue as the NSW Team then went on to destroy all teams at the Nationals! As the coach is more than likely to continue to be a CHS person in the future, I feel that there is a need to invite him to our CCC trials so that perhaps he can see a little more of our boys and even get an input from him of players that are impressing him?

Despite this however, the team members can feel extremely proud of their achievements in finishing equal first. Both my assistants Dean Bertenshaw and Trent Worrall are to be congratulated on their input and support and I again look forward to working with them both to regain our title in 2013.

Again I suggest, as I have done previously, that perhaps the CCC needs to investigate the possibility of combining with the CIS to enter a team independent of the CHS in the Nationals who always seem to dominate selection in the state team. We need to explore other means to reward our worthy students with NSW and ultimately Australian selection and perhaps filling a slot vacated by other States and territories at the Nationals may be one way.

NSWCCC Selections Report The NSWCCC selections were held at Bathurst on 28-29th May. This year for the first time we introduced a Goal Keeper trial before the main trial competition started.

This was very successful as it allowed the nominated Goal Keepers to show their skills, which they display in a trail game.

The carnival was well organised and went very smoothly. Trial games had started and selectors did not have names from at least 4 teams.

A good amount of time was allocated to Possibles and Probable game. There was also enough time to discuss the selection of the CCC Team while the finals and play off were being played.

Both teams were announced while everyone was still there and this meant that the selected girls were able to be acknowledged and congratulated.

All Schools Report The NSWCCC team consisted of 16 girls from a number of schools across NSW. The competition was of a very high standard and the girls played extremely well, displaying great talent and good sportspersonship over the two days. It was a pleasure to be the coach of such a committed and enthusiastic team and it was fantastic to have 5 girls selected into the NSW All Schools Team.

NSWCCC Selections Report Once again Camden Lakeside Golf Club provided the venue for the NSWCCC Golf Championships. The event is held over 27 holes for boys and girls that attend catholic schools in NSW. The strength of junior boy’s golf necessitated a handicap limit of 9 to ensure a manageable field size. The handicap restriction for the girls was 36. Perfect weather conditions greeted our players and with the rough cut much shorter this year the players had the opportunity to shoot low scores.

Travis Smyth who represented NSWAllschools at SSA in Adelaide last year shot an amazing 7 under par of 101 for the 27 holes. Travis won every match he contested in Adelaide and had a very successful season representing St. Michael’s in Div 1 pennants.. Runner up this year was Owen Woodley from Freeman Catholic College in Bonnyrigg. Owen shot 4 under 101. Owen and Travis will represent NSWCCC at the NSWAllschools Matchplay Championships at Blackheath in May.

The girl’s event in 2012 was won by Molly Lavercombe for the second time. Twelve year old Doey Choi indicated she may be a star of the future placed 2nd in her first NSWCCC event. Molly and Doey will be the girls matchplay competitors this year.

Net winners for 2012 were Will Barnett and Millie Hickman. The table below lists players invited to attend the NSW Allschools Championships which were held at Blackheath in the Blue Mountains - just west of Sydney.

A huge thank you to Sam and all the staff at Camden Lakeside for their hospitality. The course and facilities are first class and their professionalism in providing a rewarding experience for junior golfers I’m sure is appreciated by not only NSWCCC, but the players and their families as well.

NSW All Schools Strokeplay Championships Report Twenty two boys and 5 girls from NSW Catholic schools joined students from the Combined Independent schools and the 10 NSWCHS regions at Wentworth Falls Golf Club to contest the NSW All Schools Championships over 36 holes. The players’ scores from Camden Lakeside and Wentworth Falls are used to select the NSWCCC boys and girls teams that will attend the All Schools selection trials at Wyong late in June.

Unseasonal wet weather ensured many parts of the Wentworth Falls layout were very damp and necessitated preferred lies were local rules for the championship. Day one scores were higher than expected with no player breaking par on greens that were difficult to chip to as despite the wet conditions were still quite firm. Best of the CCC players were Ethan Blackwell from St. Greg’s Campbelltown, the ever consistent Ruben Sondjaja and fellow 2011 All Schools team mate Travis Smyth.

Wednesday’s scores separated a packed leaderboard with Sydney North player Harrison Endycott shooting an amazing 5 under par 65 to capture the NSW Allschools title aged only 15. John Paul College’s Bill Stocks stormed into contention shooting 2 under par 68 to secure a place in the NSWCCC team. Joining Bill in the CCC team this year are Ruben, Travis, Ethan Blackwell and Owen Woodley.

The girls seemed to struggle at Wentworth Falls with very few players breaking 80 in either of the two rounds. Last year’s champion Shelly Shin won her second All Schools title by a one shot margin over Celina Yuan.

Best of the CCC girls were Molly Lavercombe, Doey Choi and Lisa- Marie Jorgenson. Madeline and Isabella Woodley will also compete in the NSWAll Schools trials at Wyong late in June.

NSW All Schools Matchplay Championships NSWCCC was represented by Molly Lavercombe and Doey Choi in the matchplay championships. Unfortunately the girls were drawn to play each other in the first round. After skipping away to lead 3 up Doey looked to have the match sewn up until Molly’s experience showed through as she won 15, 16 and 17 to have the match all square standing on the 18th tee. A loose tee shot almost (1cm) out of bounds nearly handed the match to Doey however Molly recovered well to halve the hole and send the match down the 19th. Despite finding a hazard Molly had a 2 footer to save the match but it slid by giving Doey Choi from Santa Sabina Strathfield a berth in the second round against last year’s champion Shelly Shin.

A plucky performance from Doey enabled her hang in for 17 holes before losing 2 down to Shelly who went on to win the matchplay title for the second year in a row. Shelly completed a remarkable double by winning the Strokeplay and the matchplay two years in a row.Not bad for a girls in year 8!

Travis Smyth and Owen Woodley were the two CCC representatives for the boys matchplay. Both won their first round matches. Owen was pitted against 2010 All Schools representative Brayden Pertersen fron Hunter region in round two. Brayden was 4 under par as he clinically disposed of Owen 7/6.

Travis defeated Mischa Aksenoff 4/3 from CIS after a tight struggle in the quarter final. Travis then met Orara High School’s Tom Major in the semi final. Travis led 5 up through 8 holes and looked to have the match parcelled up but Tom won the 9th, 10th and 11th holes. A brilliant tee shot on the par three 12th hole with a tap in birdie steadied the ship and went on to win 4/3.

The other side of the draw saw All Schools Strokeplay champion Harrison Endycott defeat Brayden Petersen after being 2 down with 5 to play. Three birdies in a row enabled Harrison to seize the initiative and win 2/1.

Both boys were well under par in all their wins setting up an enthralling final between the two “in form” players of the event. In another high quality match Travis took the lead with an eagle and 3 birdies on the front nine. A double bogey at the short par 4 - 11th hole gave Harrison a glimmer of hope but following Travis’ undefeated matchplay run at SSA in Adelaide last year, his experience showed through as he closed out the match 2/1 to secure his first NSW All Schools Matchplay title.

Again thanks to the host clubs of Blackheath and Wentworth Falls who’s members give up their course for the week. A number of members also assisted with catering, course marshalling and ”spotting”. Nigel Black and Gary Chapman from CHS are also to be commended for their organisation of a very smoothly run event.

Jack Newton Shield Report 2012 saw the introduction of the Jack Newton Shield which was run in conjunction with the NSWAllschools Championships. The aim was to provide a pathway for students in the junior years of secondary school who were struggling to compete against Open aged athletes. Blackheath Golf Club was the venue and the short picturesque layout provided the opportunity for some of our younger players to shine. Catholic school players came from as far as Forbes in the west to Coffs Harbour in the north. Scores were hot with many players shooting well under their handicaps over the two days of the tournament.

Results from NSWCCC players were Millie Hickman John Paul College Coffs Harbour won the Yr 9 girls net Madeline Nurdi St Ursula’s Kingsgrove won the Yr 8 girls gross Brooke Conroy John Paul College Coffs Harbour won the Yr 8 girls net Jack Hickey John Paul College Coffs Harbour r/up in yr 9 boys gross Zac Haley Red Bend College Forbes won the day 1 net prize

In 2013 the event will move to Wentworth Falls which is a more difficult course and sure to provide a challenge for our younger players.

NSW All Schools Trials Report Sydney North hosted this year’s NSW All Schools Trials with over 100 players vying for selection in the boys and girls NSW All Schools Teams. Venues for event were Wyong Golf Club and Kooindah Waters – a relatively new “resort” style course which would prove a challenge to some of the state’s best junior players.

Day 1 and the inclement weather played havoc with the tournament and as some of the greens at Wyong became unplayable, organisers were left with no choice and had to cancel the days play reducing the selection trial to a 36 hole event with 18 holes at each of the two courses.

Scoring at Kooindah was difficult as the tough conditions ensured no players broke par and many reputations came to a watery grave on a course which proved as relentless as the rain. One nameless young lady racked up a 19 on one of the more difficult par 5’s and some players lost more than 10 balls in the first 9 holes.

Best NSWCCC Players this year were Travis Smyth, Ruben Sondjaja and Ethan Blackwell and Doey Coi who shot 83 on the opening day.

The NSW All Schools Team was announced and after winning the matchplay at Blackheath Travis Smyth was the sole NSWCCC player selected this year for the trip the Perth later in August.

School Sport Australia Report This year’s NSW All Schools Boy’s team was comprised of Ricky Kato (c) Northern Beaches Secondary College Travis Smyth Corpus Christi Catholic College, Oak Flats Harrison Endycott – Asquith Boys High School Jac Delaney Great Lakes College Dale Williamson Barker College Brayden Petersen Hunter Sports High School

Travis Smyth shot impressive rounds in difficult conditions of 72-72 place 2nd in the SSA Strokeplay competition at Melville Glades Golf Club. Two time winner team mate Ricky Kato with 74-75 placed 4th. Dale Williamson was the next best placed NSW player with scores of 75-81 which placed him equal 14th in the strokeplay competition. Harrison Endycott shot 81 – 76, Brayden 80 – 78 and Jac Delaney 86 – 86. The NSW team was able to edge out the local W.A. side to win the Dean Shakes Trophy for the best teams’ aggregate in the strokeplay over 36 holes. After a wet start to the morning Tuesday produced 4 seasons in one day at the sensational Mt. Lawley Golf Club as players contested the all important matchplay section of the competition. NSW’s first opponents were arch rivals Qld and after a slow start the boys overcame the northerners 5-1with Ricky, Travis, Jac Delaney, Dale Williamson and Brayden notching up confidence boosting wins in a surprisingly lopsided encounter. The afternoon match-up was against ACT and after another sluggish start the team prevailed 4-2 with Ricky, Brayden, Dale and Jac notching wins in a close tussle with a much improved ACT squad. The Educational Excursion took in a cruise down the Swan River followed by an interesting tour of the Fremantle Gaol after fish n chips on the wharf. The tour gave the boys great insight into the lives and hardships endured by prisoners in a gaol that could only be described as “primitive”.

Buoyed by their two wins the team were feeling confident heading into day two of the matchplay series. Another glorious day and another slow start as the boys struggled against an onslaught of birdies from the South Australian players, however, the boys soon found their “game” and at the end of the morning’s play had defeated 5 -1 with wins to Travis, Ricky, Dale, Harrison and Jac.

The afternoon match was against Victoria- a team that had struggled to find form through both the strokeplay and matchplay competitions. The Victorians were not concerned about reputations and soon the NSW boys were in trouble being down in 4 of the 6 matches at the turn. A rally on the back 9 enabled the team to prevail 3.5 – 2.5 with Jac Delaney proving rock solid playing at number 6.

The win enabled the boys to head into the final day undefeated. It seemed only a draw wit Western Australia would be enough to retain the title for the 6th time in a row. Two upsets worked in NSW favour and after all results were tabled NSW Boys had an unassailable lead heading into the last day. The final day and with the win in the bag the boys by their own admissions did not play well and were beaten 5.5 – 0.5 by W.A. Despite the loss the team were elated by their victory, Ricky Kato being in the winning team for the past 3 years doing an outstanding job as team captain. The School Sport Australia Merit team was announced at the presentation. Congratulations to Ricky Kato and Travis Smyth for their selection in the team. The boys are to be congratulated for the manner in which they conducted themselves during the week. They all contributed to the victories in the strokeplay and matchplay competitions. Obviously their golfing ability is of a very high standard. Captain Ricky Kato did an excellent job of ensuring that the boys bonded together as a team and supported each other throughout the week. At all times the players were respectful of their opponents, officials and managers. They were a credit to their families, their schools, their home clubs and of course to NSWAllschools Golf. It was a pleasure to be involved with such an outstanding group of young men. CHS convener Gary Chapman was very supportive of the NSW team watching all their matches and offering players advice between matches. Melville Glades, Mt Lawley and The West Australian Golf Clubs must be acknowledged for the manner in which they embraced the championships. Without this type of support from clubs and their members events of this nature just cannot happen. National Secretary David Seeley managed all the scores and results during the week without fuss. Congratulations and thanks must also go to the Carnival organisers from W.A. who ensured that the event was conducted smoothly and that the players had a rewarding experience.

NSWCCC Selections Report A total of 32 boys attended the NSWCCC Open Boys’ Hockey selection trials at the Newcastle Hockey Centre on Monday, March 19, 2012.

Although numbers were down this year, possibly as a result of some confusion with the new on-line registration procedures, the quality was extremely high, and the resulting selected squad is one of the strongest groups in recent years. The squad this year will include three current or recent Australian All Schools players and a number of players identified through Hockey NSW talent programs.

As is always the case, the greatest debate surrounded the final few places in the squad, and a number of standby and non-selected players can consider themselves unlucky to miss a place in the squad, a reflection of the quality of the players available this year.

The convener of the selections would like to thank the players who nominated for selection, the parents who attend the trials and thereby provide essential support to their children; the selectors for their diligence and commitment to NSWCCC Open Boys’ Hockey; the staff of the Newcastle Hockey Centre (always helpful and supportive in every way); and Kym and Kathie, the Executive support from NSW CCC, who collate and organise all the arrangements necessary for this event.

Tri-Series Report The 2012 Tri-Series between CCC, CHS and CIS took place at Olympic Park, Sydney on Monday 18th June. The standard of hockey was very high and all matches were competitive.

NSWCCC 2 v NSWCHS 3 Our first match was against last year’s winners and they came out fast scoring an early goal that saw us go 1-0 down. We then built momentum in the game and went to 1-1 with a goal to Robert McGuire. Although we dominated possession and field position we conceded two early in the second half. Led by Matthew Dawson and with a goal from Ryan Proctor we were right back in the game and could have easily won if it wasn’t for an outstanding match by the CHS Goalkeeper.

NSWCCC 6 v NSWCIS 2 Following CIS’s 3-2 victory over CIS we went into this match knowing that we needed to win by two goals to take the tri-series. We started well and opened the scoring with a well executed penalty corner. At half time we led 1-0 and knew that we would need to continue to attack in the second half. We got out to a 3-0 lead before they got one back and put the title in the balance again. From that point our attack stepped up and we sealed the Tri-Series with a 6-2 victory. Goal scorers: Dawson 2, O’Brien 2, Farmillo, Harrison

103

All players selected were very good ambassadors for their schools and families and all mixed well. They all shared the workload on the field, demonstrated courtesy, respect, sportsmanship and excellent behaviour at all times during the day. Their contribution to the team was always positive and in doing so they were able to play hockey at the highest level.

Congratulations to the boys on a great performance and on finishing Tri-Series Champions 2012.

NSWCCC Selections Report This year Dioceses entered teams that consisted of either Open or under 16s. This reduced the number of 16's players but also gave more opportunities to the Opens to represent their diocese as well as the opportunity for transport as a team member instead of finding their own transport. From these teams selectors selected both an open and under 16 team.

Tri-Series Report The team played in the Tri-Series on the 18th June. The team was coached by Nicole Danvers and managed by Bev Smith.

The team played very well but could not overcome the strong play of CHS who were the eventual winners of the Series. The players were a credit to their schools and state.

The team was undefeated in the round games and faced Queensland in the Final. The half time score was 1-1, NSW came out strong in the second half and the final score was 3-1 to NSW.

Congratulations to Nicole Danvers on her first appointment as a NSW All Schools Coach. Her professionalism and outstanding coaching ability helped the team to their outstanding result and achievement. Nicole is one of the NSW up and coming coaches who has a lot to offer the players and the sport of Hockey

Kate Hanna did an excellent job as Captain. Her encouragement to players on and off the field should be commended.

All Schools Report This year we needed to work up quickly to become a team as we had a very short training period and not a lot of time to prepare. It didn’t take too long before this group of selected players became a team that was supportive of each other and united in their goal to work together , improve their game and hopefully win a few games.

Thirty four 34 girls attended the All Schools trial at Westfields Sports. There were 8 games played, with girls playing their 2 nominated positions during these games.

Another game was played as a possibles and probables game before the team was announced.

There were 3 selectors on the selection panel. The trials ran smoothly and were conducted in a professional manner.

Netball Challenge During our first competition at the All Schools Challenge I think the girls surprised themselves with an excellent win over both the Combined High Schools team, and the Combined team, which gave us the points to take home the trophy.

Australasian Championships A very excited team of 10 girls, headed off to Adelaide maybe all a little nervous and unsure of what this would bring.

During the week of rounds every player had the opportunity to really show what we were there for and every player stepped up each time they took the court. Not one player took any of the games lightly and whilst we were able to mix up combinations and come away with good wins against Queensland and Victoria, the South Australian game saw the girls fight to get the win by 2 in the first game against them, this preparation would soon prove to be what we needed to compete in the final series as we went into this in first place.

Our semi final against QLD was won well by the girls and played in the spirit of the game.

We knew that SA were not going to give this final game away and that we were really going to have to keep control both mentally and physically to be in there with a chance. The girls went on strongly but the nerves were showing and we could feel from the beginning that this would be a game. SA really gave everything they had. However our defence was magic, continually turning over balls, the centre court players calmly did the job of bringing it down to the shooters, and the shooters finished it off in style making the most of every opportunity given to them to score. Every player participated in the final game. The girls gave the spectators a reason to be there with an incredibly exciting game and at times spectacular netball! In the end I think our girls had the edge on them mentally and after being down by ten in the first quarter we went on and come away as “Australasian Catholic Netball under 16’s Champions.”

Throughout the week the girls showed great sportsmanship and were proud ambassadors for their schools and netball. It was a great pleasure for Shirley and I to be a part of this team.

To Shirley Way, our fabulous manager, the girls and myself all loved your 24 hour care, how could we have done it without you! Thank you.

For the support from the spectators, Leanne, Megan, Lisa, Stewart, Karen, Gaby, Anne and the opens team, thank you. It was terrific having the extra hands with Megan and Lisa to enjoy the fun times with and share the caretaking on the adventure. Thank you to all who gave me the opportunity to be involved, I always learn so much from this fantastic experience.

Due to the low number of players, after game 8 the two courts combined so players would not be as tired. After lunch 30 players were selected to trial. The selection panel was reduced to four. Ten players were selected to form the NSWCCC Open team.

The standard of play was excellent. All players are to be congratulated on their attitude and involvement in the selection process.

Things that went well included having first aid available all day on both days, the professionalism of the umpires, having enrolments and payments completed prior to selections, administration in the morning, canteen and food for selectors, facilities.

Jacinda Spicer, NSWCCC Netball Convener

Netball Challenge We competed at the All Schools Challenge in Sydney, where we had our first opportunity to play together as a team in a real competitive arena. Unfortunately Montanna Geyer was sick and unable to attend and Charlotte Jasprizza and Kara Styles were both injured during the day leaving the team low on numbers, but the girls tried hard and were very competitive with CIS losing by 4 and for the first half against CHS. However, the wheels fell off in the second half of this game where we lost by 12. A disappointing result but it definitely showed positive signs for our trip to Adelaide.

Australasian Championships We all arrived in Adelaide on Friday 21st September, except for Gemma Larkin who was attending her Year 12 Mass and Graduation Function, on this day, but would be joining us the next day. The girls were all excited and looking forward to the week ahead. The next day we had a training session (no Gemma) and took the girls to Mass in the evening. The opening ceremony was held on Sunday23rd September, we had a light training session in the morning, the only one where we had a full team, and then the Competition began.

During the week the girls played six games, finishing the rounds with 3 wins, 2 losses and 1 draw. The girls all tried hard but struggled to work together as a team. Over the week this gradually improved, with them displaying moments of brilliance and all girls showing their ability and the reason why they were selected, but unfortunately we were not able to do this consistently enough. All 10 girls were given equal opportunity to show what they could contribute to our team, with everyone getting court time in each of the round games. The inconsistency made it difficult to work out combinations as what would work in one quarter didn’t seem to in the next quarter, very 112 confusing from a coaching perspective, but the girls would all listen and take on board what I was asking them to do, they tried hard but I needed them to step up a level and this was difficult for them. I believe if we were given more time these very same players would have been able to deliver, because it was coming together in patches, just not consistently enough.

At the end of the rounds VIC finished 1st, NSW 2nd, QLD 3rd and SA 4th. We played QLD in the Semi Final, whom we had previously had a draw and a win against in the rounds, but it was always going to be a tough game, as the QLD team was made up of some very strong individuals and they were going to fight till the end for an opportunity to play in a final. It was a really close and tight fought game in which we were always behind but never by more than 5 goals. The girls tried their hardest and hung in really well, but just couldn’t get in front of a very determined QLD team and we lost the match 39-44.

On the final day of competition we had to play off for 3rd and 4th, a disappointing result and a difficult game to play, but to their credit, to the girls remained positive and prepared for the match as if it was the Grand Final. The first half was a tight struggle with SA hanging on, showing determination and spirit only allowing us to gain a small 3 goal lead. At half time I made a number of changes going back to our Semi Final 7 and the girls proved their worth dominating the 2nd half winning the game by 15. They finally played 30 minutes of consistent, strong netball as a team, showing me they definitely have the potential to be very good players and a strong team in the future given the opportunity. Congratulations to Victoria who went on to win the Grand Final by 25 goals. They were a very strong and talented outfit who finished the week as undefeated Champions.

The Open Team consisted of 10 young and relatively inexperienced individuals, who over the week learnt a lot, worked hard, learnt many valuable lessons, and really tried to step up a level and play at a standard of netball they hadn’t had the chance to before. Given more time they could have had the opportunity to really utilize their individual strengths and be able to come together as a team, on and off court. They were all nice kids who loved their Netball, wanted to be the best they could be, were able to own up to and see their weaknesses and know they have a lot to give and a lot to learn, and I wish them all well in their future endeavors on and off the Netball Court and I hope they are given the opportunity to achieve their dreams.

To Ann, for all her hard work feeding, washing, driving the bus and helping to care for the girls, thank you so much. We work hard but it is very rewarding and lots of fun. I really appreciate your care and support.

Thanks to Karen for all her efforts in looking after the girls and keeping them on the court. Your support of me and all the players is invaluable and much appreciated.

Thank you to Megan and Lisa, for coming and helping us wherever we needed. Also to Lisa, for representing us as a Selector, a difficult and thankless task. It was great to have Stewart join us in Adelaide, so thanks; we couldn’t play without your umpiring talents and thank you for the laughs.

Congratulations to Kim, Shirley and the Under 16’s on your efforts at the Championship and on your win in the Grand Final, making NSW the Australasian Catholic Netball Champions. Well done, you were all awesome and thoroughly deserved your success. Thanks to you for all your support, encouragement and friendship, it helps to make Catholic Netball a special experience for all of us.

Thank you, thank you, thank you Leanne for all your hard work before, during and after the Championship. Without your effort all of this would not be possible. Your support of the Association, Coaching staff and the players is greatly appreciated. You are the glue that holds us all together.

NSWCCC Selections Report During these Selection Trials each player representing their association were scrutinised for their ability to demonstrate an abundance of physical skills coupled with endurance, self discipline and determination to compete. Each match was played with a real sense of purpose and it soon became evident that the team chosen to represent NSWCCC 15 Years in 2012 would be highly competitive and would represent many of the association teams involved.

The task of selecting these representative teams was made easier by the willingness of key rugby league personnel to assist the representative team coaches in this formidable task. These selectors from NRL clubs as well as the NSW Rugby League Academy bring a wealth of experience and help validate the selection process. We thank them for volunteering their time and services in their already busy rugby league schedules to help maintain the desired transparency.

Pre-Carnival Preparation The NSWCCC Rugby League teams have the privilege of being able to compete at the National Championships under its own banner. This results in the need for thorough preparation and a strong focus to perform at the highest standard when representing NSWCCC in Rugby League. The preparation for the 2012 championships was systematic and meticulous. It initially involved the team coming together at Holy Cross Ryde where the Coach Brian Battese, Assistant Coach John McKnight and Trainer Michael Fisher put the players through their paces. A trial matches against the West Tigers Development Squad enabled players to build cohesiveness and teamwork prior to competing in Darwin.

The role of the NSWCCC Executive came to the fore in this preparatory phase. This executive has been instrumental in the ongoing success of the NSWCCC Rugby League in recent years. Under the skilled leadership of President, Nal Wijesekera, each member of the executive shares the desire and commitment to ensure that students in Catholic Schools playing Rugby League are given the very best chances of furthering their playing opportunities and ensuring all activities are conducted in a manner that enhances the image of Catholic Schools. The NSWCCC Presentation Dinner at St Mary’s Leagues Club was a clear example of the expertise this group demonstrates when promoting Rugby League in Catholic Schools.

In the final NSW section of the preparation, the team came together at Mulgoa on the Wednesday. In a camp situation the players were able to train, bond and form a closeness which would bring them together for the following week. It was here that a promising squad was moulded into a very fine team.

During this camp a number of crucial activities ensued:

119

We established a common objective and a culture of success as we reflected on why NSWCCC teams have been successful in the past. We clearly defined the need to focus on team goals rather than individual aspiration and developed an appreciation of the opportunity presented through competing at a National Championship. We benefitted from the experience of successful people. The players were most fortunate to meet with current NRL players and Mitchell Aubusson who spent hours with the team, sharing their experiences of representing NSWCCC and discussing the attributes needed to play at NRL and State of Origin level. We promoted personal and social development with talks on Social Media and Illicit Drugs. We established our Code of Behaviour and identified our responsibilities. We utilised the power of prayer and motivation.

The team travelled to Darwin on the Friday. The excellent response to the very early start confirmed each player’s level of responsibility. Check-in was super smooth thanks to Mrs Hawkins and soon many players were experiencing their first flight. Arriving in the Darwin heat confirmed the need to arrive early to acclimatise. We were greeted by Carnival Convenor Trent Nolan and were transported to Kormilda College, which became our base for the week.

Saturday was greeted by an early morning training session, followed by an exciting visit to the Crocodile Park. It was here that the boys gained a healthy respected for these animals as they had turns feeding some very large and very hungry reptiles. Our preparatory days concluded with the team attending Mass at the Darwin Cathedral. Here they were warmly greeted by the congregation and the recognition of their responsibilities as a member of a Catholic Schools team was further reinforced.

The Carnival Day 1: Sunday 24th June. The National Schoolboys Carnivals are an excellent promotion of all that is good in rugby league. It is one of the few times where all mainland states and territories converge in the name of this sport. As school retention rates do not impact on this age group, it truly does bring the best from all over Australia to play rugby league. Teams from all mainland states attended and the Opening Ceremony was a stark reminder that we were here for something special. All the preparation was over .. It was game on .. and what a game we played. The carnival convener was spot on when determining the best game to showcase opening day. Two relatively even teams put on a great display for the welcoming crowd and our well-deserved victory placed us in an excellent position to realise our week-long team goals. NSWCCC 28 (Tries: Anthony Layoun, Justin Aboumelhem 2, Jake Gallagher, Pifeleti Pifeleti Goals: Justin Aboumelhem 3, Brock Lamb)defeated Qld Maroon 22 (Tries: Jesse Savage 2, Kalyn Ponga, Izaia Perese Goals: Nicholas Udowika, Kalyn Ponga 2)

Player of the Match: Jack Cogger Players Player: Jack Cogger MVP: Joey Tramontana Coach’s Award: Pifeleti Pifeleti

Day 2: Monday 25th June. Breakfast, pool recovery, video session and team meeting held the first part of the day. This was followed by a trip to the large Casuarina Shopping Centre were we could relax in air-conditioned comfort with team mates and family members. It had been a high energy experience since gathering at Mulgoa and the down time was much appreciated by all. Later that afternoon we travelled to Richardson Park to see NSWCHS defeat Queensland by a similar margin to our victory the night before. That game was followed by the Players Dinner at the Sailing Club. This Players Night was an excellent social occasion.

All teams arrived in team dress and presented an impressive display. Ex-Australian Schoolboy and NRL player, Duncan McGilvray, presented a realistic insight into the opportunities available for the talented rugby league player and left each boy with the personal challenge of keeping his future and playing opportunities in the correct perspective. Day 3: Tuesday 26th June. The winner of this pool game gained the distinct advantage of playing the fourth-placed team in the semi-final. Stakes were high. Breakfast, Training Session, Rest & Relax, Team Meeting … a productive routine had been established. Players were responding to all requests and there was a great feel in the camp as we boarded the bus. The game would determine the premier NSW team for 2012 and it was a dominate performance by NSWCCC. It was this game that the boys clearly demonstrated that they did not only have the physical prowess, they also had in abundance the mental toughness needed to do well in a national tournament.

Game 2: NSWCCC 18 (Tries: Anthony Layoun, Pifeliti Pifeliti, Gabriel Hamlin Goals: Justin Aboumelhem 3) defeated NSWCHS 4 (Tries: Mark Griffiths)

Player of the Match: Gabriel Hamlin Players Player: Gabriel Hamlin MVP: Nat Butcher Coach’s Award: John Toso

Day 4: Wednesday 27th June. Winning the first two games resulted in the bonus of playing the winner from Pool B in the semi-final. While we would go into this game with a distinct psychological advantage, the focus was on not under-estimating the quality of the second Queensland team. The preparation was similar to the other days and the boys turned up to ensure that they took the opportunity to advance to the final. The 20-0 lead held at half–time defined the way we gained ascendancy and dominated proceedings. While the game did not match the same

120 intensity as the previous games it did show the overall skill level our team possessed as players who had limited time up to this point were given opportunities to perform and they clearly showed that they were capable of performing at this national level.

NSWCCC 28 (Tries: Pifeleti Pifeleti, Brock Lamb, Joseph Tramontana, Justin Aboumelhem, Anthony Layoun Goals: Justin Aboumelhem 4) defeated Queensland White 6 (Tries: Carter Auld Goals: Carter Auld) Player of the Match: Justin Aboumelhem Players Player: Justin Aboulmelhem MVP: Jake Gallagher Coach’s Award: Brock Lamb

Following the game, we borrowed the larger NSWCIS mini-bus & the players travelled to the Darwin wharf for dinner at Elios Restaurant. Again they undoubtedly demonstrated how they had grown as a team and as fine ambassadors when representing NSW Catholic Schools in public venues. The support they gave one of our players who had received sad family news was something that will remain with me for a very, very long time. We celebrated in public, we consoled as individuals, we prayed as a team in a mini-bus in the middle of Darwin. This was a team that continued to prove themselves to be very special .. and not just on a football field.

Day 5: Thursday 28th June. A sleep-in, breakfast, training at St John’s College, back to Kormilda and the afternoon with family members. It was designed to be a day of rest and relaxation with many going to the Wave Pool at Darwin Harbour. Later in the day we gathered as an entire group .. players, officials, family and friends at the Raging Bull Steakhouse .. to again share a meal and to give the officials a chance to thank everyone who had played a role in ensuring this tour was outstanding in every way and to present special awards donated by many NRL clubs.

Day 6: Friday 29th June. The probability of a NSW team defeating Queensland teams 3 times in the same week is remote, so we were certainly not over confident as we prepared for the final. Rather than rely on probability we utilised our positive mental attitude, durability and resolve to win. The basic toughness in the forward pack withstood an early Queensland barrage and the skill level of the talented backline provided the necessary points for victory. Winning was made truly exceptional because of the natural quality of the Queensland team. Led by our outstanding co-captains Jack & Joey, we took early control of the game, and, while Queensland continued to rally, our basic will to win and instilled discipline to stick to the well drilled game plan ensured the victory. Winning was truly a consequence!

NSWCCC 41 (Tries: Jack Cogger 2, Keeden Kelly 2, Pifeleti Pifeleti, Anthony Layoun, Jack Gallagher Goals: Justin Aboumelhem 6 Field Goal: Brock Lamb) defeated Queensland Maroon 32 (Tries: Izaia Perese 3, Keenan Palasia, Logan Spaander, David Pritchard Goals: Nicholas Udowika 3, David Pritchard)

NSWCCC Player of the Carnival: Jack Cogger ASSRLC Player of the Carnival: Joseph Tramontana (Patrician Brothers College, Blacktown)

The team had achieved the team goal .. winning the National Championship .. every team member had the gold medal .. and it only remained for individual honours to be awarded to players. Only 13 players would win selection to the Australian Schoolboys 15 Years Merit Team and it was with great pride that we acknowledged the selection of 9 players to this ASSRL team.

Congratulations to the following players on their selection:

Conclusion This report hopefully reinforces the wonderful success and talents of the NSWCCC 15 Years team of 2012. They were able to achieve their goals and be victorious over the best schoolboys rugby league players in the nation and probably the world. Now it’s time to recognise those who contributed. Staff. Throughout the history of the NSWCCC Rugby League, we have been indeed been fortunate to have so many talented staff members in Catholic Schools who are willing to devote the necessary time and effort into melding teams to such an extent that winning almost seems consequential to energies spent in such preparation

121 and execution of plans and responsibilities. With my long term involvement in this association I truly believe that this year’s 15 Years team was endowed with team management who possessed a level of expertise and commitment second to none. At all times they carried out their responsibilities with the level of propriety that befits NSWCCC Rugby League and the many positive affirmations received from both players and parents in terms of how each player was cared for and afforded opportunities to actualise their personal goals was a true reflection of their personal and professional qualities.

In a seamless display of coaching and management talent these gifted staff members .. Coach Brian Battese, Assistant Coach John McKnight and Trainer Michael Fisher .. constantly displayed a sound knowledge of the game, crafted a thriving team ethos, constantly set manageable goals, instilled a good understanding and empathy for the game and its principles and focussed on those activities that are really important. Consequently they generated a winning mindset not only for the games, but as a complement of the players’ life. In turn they were rewarded with the players’ trust, self-confidence and a passion to responsibly adhere to team standards.

Players. Each player made an imposing contribution to the overall success and epitomised the team harmony and focus that characterises our NSWCCC teams and the team’s victory over opposition of such calibre spoke volumes as to the talent, courage and commitment that existed in this very special team. The pleasing factor is that the team did not simply rely on the reputation created by past teams but worked diligently to create its own winning identity.

At the National Championships the players continually proved themselves to be outstanding ambassadors for Catholic Schools and hence deserved every success that came their way. From the very first meeting at Holy Cross Ryde, the players’ spirit of co-operation in all organisational matters, their high level of professionalism, and their open and friendly attitudes made them a special group to be associated with. The result was the creation of a strong culture that embraced responsibility, performance and success.

It was a great pleasure to be with so many accomplished sportsmen touring at such an early phase of their sporting career. They provided us with so many lasting and positive memories. They too will have great memories. For all players to come home as national champions is a feat reserved for only 20 of thousands of players who choose to play rugby league at this age group. They should never lose sight or diminish the size of this outstanding achievement. For some this will be one of many significant moments in a career that should span NRL and even future state and national representation. For others it will be the best highlight of their rugby league career. However for all it was the beginning of ongoing mateship and sharing something special in their lives. I believe I was truly blessed in being able to share that experience. I sincerely thank them for their trust in team management and the efforts that resulted, and I wish them well in what should be a very promising future in all facets of life.

Parents. The support from parents leading up to and throughout the National Championship was most gratifying and their dedication required at this level of playing rugby league was definitely appreciated and was reflected in the performances on the field. They were an important element in contributing to team cohesion and ultimate success. The entire parent body were aware of their responsibilities in supporting the NSWCCC team culture and are sincerely thanked for their assistance in making this year such a memorable one in teams of meeting the off- field responsibilities and on-field support.

Conveners. A Championship of this status also deserves the best possible facilities and I believe that the Northern Territory Rugby League did a magnificent job - both on and off the field. They are to be congratulated on the playing surface that was made available to the visiting players and all other on-ground amenities were made available to make our stay enjoyable. Not only were the players made welcome but the many parents and visitors warmly accepted the stadium and its well-presented facilities. It was a pleasure coming to the venue each day to enjoy the facilities on offer. The size of the complex was ideal as it allowed noticeable crowd interaction and appreciation of the high standard of play. A true carnival atmosphere existed during the week.

Referees. The standard of rugby league played on each of the days not only reflected the high levels of coaching and management by the various associations, it was also made possible by the excellent standard of refereeing throughout the carnival. This also is seen as a development exercise and I thank the members of the various Referees Associations for their contributions in ensuring such a successful carnival.

Finally .. this year was a very special year in the history of the NSWCCC Rugby League. It was the first time that the 15 Years & 18 Years teams won both National Championships. It created lasting memories .. not only because of this unique feat .. but also because of the players, staff, parents and officials who made it happen!

There were a few expectations of this team before the team commenced its journey to defend the championship. Not only did we come into the championship defending our title, but we were also labelled as the team to beat by many people and their associates. We definitely had the strongest team on paper and we had to prove it on the scoreboard. The team came into camp on the Wednesday before the championships at Mulgoa, determined to back up what the Under 15’s did and what we did last year, and that was to be the champions for a second year in succession.

Our squad came together for two weekends prior for training at Holy Cross College Ryde and a trial game against . Many thanks to Adam Taylor (Principal) for allowing us to use the facilities at Ryde. Our trial game was quite successful with us defeating Wests Tigers 32–26. (Tries: Sione Folau 2, Ryan Matterson, Alex Thomas, Halauafu Lavaka. Goals: Luke Brooks 2, Adam Elliot).

We settled in at T’s Tennis Resort, Port Macquarie on the Friday after a long 5 hour coach ride from Sydney. That night we had an opposed session against a local team in wet conditions. Thanks to Mark Nunnan (Deputy Principal, Newman Senior Technical College) for his organization with this and with many other things. On the Saturday, we spent some leisure time playing Lazer Tag followed by a training session in the afternoon and Mass in the evening.

With the draw the same as the previous year, we had the bye first up and our championships commenced on Monday when we took on QSSSRL. After NSWCHS defeated Queensland quite well the previous, we knew that the Queenslanders would come out all fired up to make up for their mistakes. However, the boys played well and although we had a slow start, we still managed to score plenty in the second half. Looking at the scoreboard, our attack worked quite well and our defence was excellent and we ran out victors 32-0.

After a great win we were focused on a big job ahead against NSWCHS. We started strong and kept that momentum going. Again, great defence mixed with good attack and we saw us take a 22 – 6 lead at half time. Unfortunately, the tide turned in the second half. Running into the wind and rain, combined with a 1-8 penalty count, we found ourselves only 4 points in front with 5 minutes remaining. Lucky we were able to hang on to win 22-18.

Having finished on top of our Pool we were drawn to play ACT in the semi final. ACT came out hard as we expected and kept the first half even, with CCC leading by 2 points. We were able to re-gather our thoughts during the half time break and came out in the second half a different team scoring two quick tries. In the end our team was just too strong and we ended up winning 34-16.

We progressed through to the final were our opponents were NSWCHS. The boys had a lot to prove and they were also determined to gain selection in the Australian Schoolboys team. We started the game well and were the first to score. Before we knew it, it was half time and we were up 22-0. Although we had a considerable lead, we knew that CHS were capable of bouncing back, and this they did with two quick tries, to only be 12 points behind. However, 124 our defence proved why we were the best in the tournament and CHS were unable to score again. We eventually went on to score two more tries to win the final 30-10.

The closing ceremony bought with it the announcement of the Australian Schoolboys team to play 2 tests. NSWCCC dominated selections gaining 10 of the 17 positions; Luke Brooks, Bradley Deitz, Mitchell Moses (Holy Spirit College, Ryde), Adam Elliot (St Gregory’s College, Campbelltown), Halauafu Lavaka, Chad McGill, Pauli Pauli, Paul Simona, Chris Smith (Patrician Brothers College, Blacktown), Matthew Lodge (Terra Sancta College, Quakers Hill).

Our squad should be congratulated for the professionalism on and off the field. Congratulations to the coaching staff Tim White, Dane McKay and Peter Burke for their commitment and success. A thank you is also extended to our external helpers in Mitchell Lewis and Lauren Gradwell and also to all parents/guardians for their support.

NSWCCC RUGBY LEAGUE REPORT 2012

It is a great privilege and honour for me to present to all our members the 2012 NSW Combined Catholic Colleges Rugby League Annual. The annual covers the year in review from the State Selection Trials, each association’s results and the National Championship results. A magazine such as this would not be possible without the dedication and effort of our Publicity Officer-James Clancy. James’ attention to detail and patience is reflected in the quality of this annual. This year I am proud to report as you will read has being the most successful year in the history of Catholic Schoolboys Rugby League.

The programs and pathways we are able to offer our students each year would not be possible without the support of our Principals. Their willingness to have their students involved in Catholic Schoolboys Rugby League enable us to run our programs and with the support of the NSW RL and ARLC. To all the teachers who give up their times to coach their teams and attend the various carnivals, I thank you for generosity and care.

The State selection Trials were this held at St Mary’s, thanks to the generous support of Warren Smith and the Board. We are extremely fortunate to have a world class facility for our students to display their talents during these trials. The Presidents Team again proved to be a very valuable initiative in our trials with a number of selections coming out of these teams.

This year at the Official Dinner during the Selection Trials we presented a Life Member’s blazer to Michael Lewis, for his wonderful contribution to NSW CCC RL over a very long period of time. Michael is a man of few words but he makes up for this with his undying passion and commitment to Catholic Schoolboys Rugby League.

At the ASSRL Championships are 15’s travelled to Darwin knowing that we had a very competitive team and our preparation had been excellent. They took this into the competition and went on to be undefeated Australian Under-15 Champions. Once again to Brian, John, Phil, Michael and Mark well done on getting these boys to perform to their best for the whole week. I especially like to congratulate you all and the young men for the manner in which they represented our Association.

This year the 18’s travelled to Port Macquarie with a new coach and assistant coach in Tim White and Dane McKay respectively. Like the 15’s they also went through the championships undefeated to claim the title for a second consecutive year. As a result of this 10 players made the Australian Secondary Schoolboys Team out of 17. I have no doubt if this was a touring year we would have broken the record of 11 selections from one Association. To Tim, Dane, Chris, Peter, Mitch and James well done on preparing the team and also getting them to play a great brand of footy.

The NSW Rugby League has been a great supporter of the NSWCCC RL and again has provided financial assistance in the form of a grant to promote rugby league in Catholic schools. The grant that they provide helps us to keep Catholic Schoolboy Rugby League going at the grassroots by channeling these funds to the various affiliated associations to assist with gear and levies. I would also like to personally thank Martin Meredith for his genuine support for our Association. Also to Andrew Hill from the ARLC, thank you for your support and assistance with all our programs. To all the staff at the NSW RL Western Academy and all the ARL Development Officers thank you for your help with running the CCC Cup this year. To Doug Keen thank you so much for taking the pressure off all our programs by organizing referees for all Catholic competitions.

Once again we have been extremely fortunate to have some very wonderful people and organization support us through some form of donation. To E Security, St Mary’s Leagues Club,Westend Constructions, I thank you for your generous support . I would also like to thank NSW RL Referees Associations and all NRL clubs for the support they have provided throughout the year.

The CCC Cup entered its second year and again we had record number of entries. This year we made a slight adjustment to the structure of the competition, after the Round of 16 the winning schools went into the CCC Cup and the loosing schools went into the CCC Plate. I would like to thank all the executive members for their dedication and professionalism they have displayed throughout the course of the year. To Anne-Marie Bissett [Secretary], Fady Ghanem [Treasurer], James Clancy [Publicity Officer], Mark Falkenmire [Country Vice President], Tim White [City Vice President], thank you. To all our General Committee, the convenors- Steve Hooper [Southern Country], Leon Robinson/Scott Asimus[Northern Country], David Credaro[Sydney Independents Catholic Colleges], Aaron McDonald [MCS] Vlad Kulish [CBSA] and Chris Duncombe [MCC] , thank you for the wonderful work you do at your association levels and contribution to NSWCCCRL.

As this very successful year draws to an end and we look back on these wonderful achievements, most notably, winning both 15’s and 18’s Championships for the very first time in our history, we must never forget that all this is a product of all that we stand for and the great work our schools put into to build, not just good rugby league players, but outstanding men.

127

As we prepare for our next challenges and all the obstacles that get put in our way, I leave you with this, St Augustine said about faith and believing in what you stand for even when others try to cloud that belief;“ faith is to believe what you do not see; the reward of this faith is to see what you believe,” and my dear friends that never more evident than this year.

I wish you and all your family a very safe and loving Christmas and New Year period.

Nal. Wijesekera President NSWCCC Rugby League

NSWCCC RUGBY LEAGUE CUP 2012

The second year for the CCC Cup went extremely well with some additions to the competition in 2012. To promote further competition for schools it was voted on that there would be two tiers after Round 8 with schools promoted to the plate series. This provided a greater opportunity for schools to display their talents whilst progressing further in the competition.

The Sydney Gala Days were held at Patrician Brothers College Blacktown and Holy Cross College Ryde. Over 20 Catholic schools in the Sydney metropolitan area competed in pools to provide a winner for each. Special thank you to Peter Ross and Tim White for their organisational skills prior to and on the day. The Southern and Northern Country Gala days were held in neutral venues to cater for the travel. Thank you to Steve Hooper (Southern) and Brian Battese, Leon Robinson and Scott Asimus (Northern) who organized their CCC Cup Gala Days.

Over the course of 5 months many competitive games were watched and many players demonstrated their athletic ability in this sport. Entertaining tries were scored, along with some brilliant defense to eventually lead to the grand final day held at St Mary’s Stadium under fantastic weather.

Thank you to all schools who entered the CCC Cup in 2012 and hopefully by providing this expansive competition it will allow schools to showcase their talent.

NSW All Schools Report The NSWCCC squad consisted of 23 talented players from all over NSW. The experienced Chris Coleman was Head Coach and Shaun Killian took on the roles of Assistant Coach and Team Manager.

The players attended a 3 day camp at Narrabeen Sports Academy where they were put through a variety and skills sessions and also used this time to work on a game plan for the Championships. This year the NSW Schools u16 Rugby Championships were held at Knox Grammar school on the 23rd and 24th of June 2012 whereby each team played 3 matches.

Round 1 of the Championships saw NSWCCC face a well drilled CAS team that dominated the breakdown and came out victors, beating NSWCCC 31-15. Round 2 saw NSWCCC come up against NSW Country. Unfortunately due to the loss against CAS in Round 1 NSWCCC were out of the running for the top prize, having to play against the Presidents B team for the Life Members Shield. It was an extremely well matched and physical encounter which ended in a 17 all draw, with both teams sharing the Life Members Shield.

NSW All Schools Report Rugby continues to grow within the CCC as evidenced by the number of teams trialling form over the state. After the two days of trials, a team was selected to represent the CCC at The NSW Championships. It is pleasing to note, that the team was made up of mainly rugby players who already had the necessary skills and made coaching so much easier. Again it is disappointing to notice players from previous u16s teams who do not continue the pathway through CCC as they get poached by other associations.

The camp returned to Narrabeen this year and over the three days we spent together, the squad really developed and enjoyed the facilities that Narrabeen offers (most notably the Ice Baths). The boys also enjoyed an outing to Manly Oval to watch a local Shute Shield game between Manly and Eastwood.

Our first game against CHS on a wild and windy day at Hills Grammar saw us really put it to CHS and we were unlucky to be behind at oranges. We could not however, sustain this effort in the second half and a couple of late tries saw CHS defeat us by twenty odd points, in a result that did not really reflect the difference between the two teams. Our second game against ISA was a much closer affair in which we lost by one point after rejecting a shot at goal that could have won us the game. Our third game against GPS was also a close affair and in a nail biter, we eventually defeated them.

Unfortunately, none of our players were selected in the main NSW squads although Jonathan Brown from Sydney South was selected as a shadow player. Although seemingly disappointing from a CCC perspective, it was fair call as no other player really stood out more than others who were selected. What is obvious and was commented upon by the selectors, was the great team play exhibited by the team and how they had developed from the first game. I have no doubt that CCC has now been given the credibility they deserve and the fact that we can ‘match it’ with the top representative teams is testimony to this.

This year also saw the Australian Schools Rugby Union hold a forum in Brisbane to discuss issues that related to schools rugby. The first of its kind, it brought together a range of teachers and coaches from around Australia, Super Rugby representatives and the ARU to discuss rugby issues. From these discussions, a range of strategies have been put in place to try and deal with the issues raised. Some of the more prominent issues were:  Scheduling/timing/ coordination of matches ie test matches, national championships and selection trials  The role of ASRU and communication of the role to schools  The purpose, value and timing of the Australian championships  The ASRU school teams playing academies  Parity of games across competitions - focus on lower graded teams  The role of the gold squads and the impact of gold squads on schools and school programs  Coach education in schools and clubs  Promotion of the game  Duplication of elite programs within schools and what is offered by the ARU  Development and maintenance of rugby  State Union and ARU involvement at school level  Referee development and promotion  Support for rugby in non traditional schools

136

Whilst this may seem an exhaustive list, it is not anticipated that the ARU Schools Association can address all these issues. The feedback and analysis generated at the Forum provided the ASRU with an opportunity to develop a Strategic Plan. The issues and suggested strategies from the Forum will form the foundation of such a Strategic Plan.

In conclusion, rugby at CCC level continues to grow and most importantly, students in Catholic Schools in NSW are finally being afforded the same rights as those in other associations. The challenge for us, is to get more CCC people involved at a state level, either as selectors or coaches to ensure that our players are represented at the selection meetings.

NSWCCC Selections Report After an 11th hour change of venue due to conditions at BOP, this year’s trials were hosted by Macarthur Softball Association at Cowpature Reserve, Camden. Four teams contested the Boys event (Conveners, Lismore, MCS and Parramatta)

For the fourth consecutive year, in order to maximise participants’ time on the diamond, it was decided to again dispense with the Possible/Probables game in the Boys section. This allowed teams to play each other twice, giving selectors ample opportunity to see the talent on display.

For the record, the Boys event was won by the Convener’s Team (5 wins from 6)

Thanks to a number of people: Cathy Kerr (Softball NSW) for her invaluable assistance prior to the carnival, and especially after the change of venue; Leanne Gearside, and her team of dedicated umpires; Kym Skerritt for her continued support and involvement; selectors Carol Deegan (Cerdon College, Merrylands), Andrew Kenneally (Corpus Christi, Oak Flat), Tracey Doyle (Macarthur Softball Association) and Cindy Patmore (Georges River Softball Association); and to those people who so willingly assisted with managing the three Convener’s teams (special mention should be made of the good folk from Parramatta who went above and beyond here in order to help out!)

Finally, a huge vote of thanks to Geoff Lowe and the members of Macarthur Softball Association who, with less than 24 hours notice, had their grounds wonderfully prepared for what turned out to be a very enjoyable day on the diamonds.

All Schools Carnival Report The 2012 Invitational Boys’ Softball Championship was held on Thursday, September 13, at Aquilina Park, Blacktown, (Olympic Park). Once again, NSW CCC and NSW CHS contested proceedings, playing three games against one another.

Following a late withdrawal, eleven boys formed this year’s squad, one of the oldest on record, with five Year 11 students and six Year 12’s. Geographically, the bulk of the side was from metropolitan Sydney, with only three representatives from regional New South Wales.

The first two matches were characteristically tight affairs. From the very first innings of Game 1, CCC matched their opponents with both bat and ball, and an early lead was established and maintained for almost the entire game. This was made possible by some solid batting, some outstanding defensive work, and aggressive pitching and base-running. Unfortunately, one or two indiscretions in the infield saw our opposition come up trumps by the narrowest of margins, 4 to 3.

In Game 2, circumstances were similar in that it was a very tight affair from start to finish. In a game that could easily have gone either way, CCC unfortunately found itself on the wrong side of a low 2-0 scoreline.

139

Game 3 was a different story altogether, and we received a surprising 13-2 drubbing because nothing just seemed to work for the boys, which is just sometimes how it goes. Perhaps those who make the side next year need no other motivation than the memory of that game to fire themselves up when next the sides meet.

On behalf of the team, coach Andrew Kenneally and CCC itself, thanks must go to the parents for their obvious support, our hard-working umpires, the staff at Softball NSW and, finally, Mr Peter Zegiel (CHS Softball Convener) for his organisation of the day.

We look forward to the possibility of a two-day tournament next year which, if things go to plan, will involve a third team from Queensland. Stay tuned.

NSWCCC Selections Report After an 11th hour change of venue due to conditions at BOP, this year’s trials were hosted by Macarthur Softball Association at Cowpature Reserve, Camden. Five Girls teams took part (two Convener’s teams, Broken Bay, Parramatta and SCC). Again, the more conventional format applied to the Girls, with each team having four games and a bye, followed by a set of situational drills for the Possibles/Probables time-slot.For th record, Broken Bay won the Girls section, being undefeated. It is also pleasing to note that, for the second year in a row, student umpire Liz Liepa, from Broken Bay, was successful at being judged ready for the next level of participation at the All Schools Selection Trials.

Thanks to a number of people: Cathy Kerr (Softball NSW) for her invaluable assistance prior to the carnival, and especially after the change of venue; Leanne Gearside, and her team of dedicated umpires; Kym Skerritt for her continued support and involvement; selectors Carol Deegan (Cerdon College, Merrylands), Andrew Kenneally (Corpus Christi, Oak Flat), Tracey Doyle (Macarthur Softball Association) and Cindy Patmore (Georges River Softball Association); and to those people who so willingly assisted with managing the three Convener’s teams (special mention should be made of the good folk from Parramatta who went above and beyond here in order to help out!)

NSW All Schools Report The 2012 NSW All Schools Girls Softball Trials, in which four teams participated, were held on Tuesday, March 13 at Blacktown Olympic Park. Yet again, the girls are to be complimented for their attitude and conduct. From the moment they gathered for training the day before, to the very last play of the day, they represented their schools and families in a very positive manner. I’m sure I speak for all involved when I say that it is a matter of pride, and a source of satisfaction, to be associated with them. For the record, NSWCCC, with 15 points from two wins and a draw, won this year's shield.

Thanks to Coach Carol Deegan (Cerdon College Merrylands) and Manager Jan McNairn (Holy Spirit College Lakemba) for all their time and effort. Once again, thanks to Peter Zegiel (CHS) for his efficient and effective organisation and co-ordination of the day. And finally, to the parents, who do so much for the sake of their children’s enjoyment of and participation in sport.

I had the privilege of accompanying the NSW Swimming team with Sharon Gill-Andrews from Lismore Diocese for these School Sport Australia Championships to witness the strength of swimming in NSW. NSW were the dominant state at this event and what a fantastic group of young men and women represented us. Congratulations to all swimmers on their fantastic efforts and the tremendous way they represented NSWCCC in front of a national audience.

Thank you Chris Anschau NSWCCC Swimming Convener

NSWCCC Selections Report On Monday, the CCC Tennis selections were blessed to have amazing weather for the day. We only had two players stuck in the floods from Wagga Wagga who could not make it, which was a real shame for those players. Otherwise, we had all players attend, and those who sustained an injury leading up to the comp provided enough notice to ensure the carnival run smoothly.

It was the first year all players turned up and began before 8:30am. The quality of the players this year was outstanding, and I am really looking forward to All Schools. Once again, the students competed with outstanding sportsmanship and the manners shown by many of the players at the end of the day, really brought home why I enjoy convening this sport. Many times the players came up to Chris Anshau or myself to say thank you for the opportunity as well as coordinating the day. Thanks to Chris for his role on the day, beneficial to the smoothness on the day.

Thanks to John Sparks for opening the carnival and visiting throughout the day. Thank you to the many sports coordinators and Dio reps for explaining the new website processes to the students to ensure they had the opportunity to compete. I certainly understand the pressure we all faced to ensure the new processes happened well, and with Tennis as the first sport off the rank, I am really happy with the result.

NSW All Schools Carnival Report Leading up to this carnival, three of the NSWCCC players pulled out. A change in the age category ruled out a player who turned 19 this year. We also lost a player who sustained an injury at their College Cross Country carnival and a player who was struck down by a rare illness. Although we had to deal with these hardships early on, we had a number of players available to step in at such late notice.

The All Schools carnival, held at Bathurst was once again of a high standard. Our boy’s team in particular was exceptional this year with so much depth. We even lost our top boy from 2011 to CHS, but this did not hinder the talent of our CCC players. The morning session was tough, with many of our girls knocked out in the first round. To our girl’s credit, we have a young side of courageous girls who competed against many year 12 players. Our team did not give up throughout the morning. Our boys on the other hand dominated the morning session winning many matches against their opposition. For the first time in ages, our boys won the silver medal in the team’s event, which is an outstanding result. We had 4 boys and 1 girl progress to the afternoon session where they fought for a position in the NSW team.

We had two boys selected into the NSW team, Jason Taylor and Nathan Boniel. Unfortunately, our strongest boy did not get selected as he was placed in a pool against players who had not been seeded correctly. He did play off for reserve positions and has been selected as the NSW reserve.

The second day of play allowed for the players in the NSW team fight for playing positions in the team. Rain and some players leaving early for a national’s tournament in QLD hindered the boys. Overall, they were very impressive in their performances and are wished the very best for Pizzey Cup.

NSWCCC Selections Report This year the NSWCCC Touch Championships were held at Tamworth. The weather was freezing, but this did not prevent the standard of Touch being very high. Special congratulations must be extended to Kim Coe, who acted as Carnival coordinator and spent countless hours preparing the grounds and coming up with wet weather contingencies. Thankyou also to Mr Peter Lees who acted as the Referees coordinator and, NSW Touch who provided four selectors to assist our State Coaches and managers in selecting our teams; Referees, Liam Patience and Josh Harmer (Lismore) and Emma Thornton (Parramatta); Kerrie Halpin (Announcer), Margaret Thornton for all of her assistance throughout the day; team managers for their organisation and management of teams and parents and spectations for their support and encouragement.

The Open Boys Final was won by MCC in a close game, defeating Broken Bay by 2 touchdowns to 1.

At the conclusion of the day, NSWCCC named four teams to contest the NSW All Schools Championships in the U/15 Division and the National Youth Championships in the Opens Division. At the time of writing, the Opens teams were preparing to play in the National Youth League in Port Macquarie. The timing of this tournament has been problematic this year, with it clashing with the final week of Term 3, meaning a number of Year 12 students have missed graduation. It is also being held in conjunction with the State Of Origin Touch series, meaning a number of students have had to withdraw from the team. It is hoped that these clashes will not occur in the future. Thankyou to everyone involved in Touch Football in 2012, from administrators, through to coaches and players. I hope you have enjoyed the year and I look forward to working with you in 2013

National Youth Tournament Report “UNDEFEATED AUSTRALIAN CHAMPIONS” The 2012 NSWCCC 18’s Touch Football team to represent NSWCCC at the National Youth Championships in Port Macquarie, was selected after successful trials held at Tamworth in early June. Selectors agreed on a squad of 14 players who they thought could best represent NSWCCC in the upcoming Youth Championships and end Queensland’s domination in the tournament. Due to scheduling of the event in the last week of term 3, five boys were forced to withdraw themselves from the team due to year 12 commitments and five shadow players were called in as replacements.

The team trained well in the lead up to the tournament but were forced to cancel the final training session, scheduled for the day before competition, due to year 12 graduation commitments. The team gathered for the first time in Port Macquarie an hour before our first game. At the Team Meeting prior to our warm up it was announced that Dom Field and Mitchell Newman, both NSWCCC 18’s boy’s veterans, would co-captain the team.

Day one of competition featured three games against Touch 17’s, and Northern Territory. NSWCCC conceded the first try against the highly fancied New Zealand 17’s team and never looked back from there winning the game 7 – 2. Games against Tasmania and Northern Territory followed with boys producing comprehensive displays winning 18 – 5 and 17 – 2 respectively.

NSWCCC went into day two of competition coming off three big wins and three big games followed against NSWCHS, NSWTA Development and ACT Pirates. Day two was billed as “Derby Day” as NSWCCC faced the two other NSW teams in the competition. Game one against NSWCHS was promoted as match of the day and the boys wanted to desperately win this encounter. NSWCCC led early and never really looked like losing, coming away with a 10 – 7 victory.

Game two was against NSWTA Development. This team was made up of players who missed out on selection of the other NSW teams and who were all desperate to impress. They definitely put up a fight but NSWCCC proved too strong winning 8 – 4. Game three was the teams’ one and only night game against the ACT Pirates which we won 15 – 5.

Going into day three the boys had to win their last game in order to take the number one seed into the quarter finals. We faced the much improved Western Tigers and after a tough game NSWCCC ended up winning 13 – 8. This win marked the beginning of a new competition as the boys were now playing knockout football. The quarter final had NSWCCC coming up against rivals NSWCIS. After a tough first half and an inspirational half time speech NSWCCC won 12 – 6.

Day four was the final day of competition and what many would call the business end. Central Queensland Bulls, the pre competition favourites, awaited NSWCCC in the semi-final. Scores were level at half time and the boys were determined to make the grand final for the third consecutive year. This drive and passion went a long way in the team’s 8 – 6 upset victory against a more highly fancied opponent.

It had been 3 long years since the last time NSWCCC tasted opens boys success and the last two years produced agonising losses in the grand final against Queensland Secondary Schools Touch. And that is who awaited us again in the grand final. Both teams undefeated and a game away from being crowned Australian Champions. NSWCCC went into the game as underdogs and QSST began the game strongly leading 3 – 0 and 4 -1 at various stages of the first half. NSWCCC eventually clawed their way back into the match and were level 5 – 5 at half time.

Mitchell Newman and Dom Fields at half time both spoke about their desire to finish off their NSWCCC careers as champions, a title that had eluded them the previous two years. It was deja vu for these two boys as last year’s grand final was also locked at 5 – 5 at half time. NSWCCC were down 7 – 5 early in the second half but after a string of four consecutive tries led 9 -7 and eventually won the game 9 – 8 in the dying seconds. Undefeated Australian Champions.

Matthew Arnold was named man of the match for the grand final, while Jed Ibbotson was named man of the tournament. Ciaron toner was awarded the players player award voted by the coaching staff and his teammates. As a result of their fine efforts both Ciaron Toner and Jed Ibbotson were both rewarded with selection in the Australian under 18’s team to play New Zealand in January.

Many thanks must go to the parents of the players for their commitment and hard work. The help and support you provided the boys was greatly appreciated by all. Many thanks must also go to Kym Skerrit for her organisation and hard work put into the team. A big Thankyou also must go to the Thornton family for all their hard work in managing the team and providing them with water before, during and after games.

It was an absolute privilege to coach a group of such talented individuals. The NSWCCC team was written off from the start of the tournament with both Queensland teams expected to play out the grand final. The preparation for the tournament was hampered by boys withdrawing due to year 12 commitments and even the grand final was played with 12 men due to this. The NSWCCC boys proved how resilient they were in continuing on with the job despite all kinds of obstacles being thrown at them. This resiliency and desire to win went a long way in helping them to achieve the ultimate goal of being Undefeated Australian Champions.

NSW All Schools Report After a very productive first-up training session at St. Mary’s in the school holidays, the boys arrived at Narrabeen on Friday 27th July for the All Schools training camp and tournament. The boys trained very well on the Friday and the following morning in readiness for the All Schools tournament. The team’s preparation also included a trial match on the Friday evening against the Manly First Division Women’s Premier League team. The tournament took place on the following two days, Saturday 28th and Sunday 29th July.

The team began their tournament on Saturday evening with a convincing 8-1 win over CIS, and backed that up with an equally impressive 3-1 victory over CHS. The following morning the boys drew 6-6 in their second game against CHS, in what was a high quality contest that saw the lead change hands several times. The pace of the game was so high that at full time many players, coaches and selectors were unsure of the final score. The boys then defeated CIS 7-2 in their final preliminary match.

The final against CHS was a fitting end to the tournament, with a highly entertaining game finishing 6-5 to CHS. Despite being on the wrong end of the scoreboard in the final, the boys played all five of their games in the right spirit and never stopped trying to the final siren. Throughout the weekend, the coach often remarked to myself

and other staff members about the exemplary behavior and positive attitude of the boys representing NSWCCC, both on and off the field.

On behalf of the coach Michael Abood, I would like to extend my thanks to the NSWCCC Touch Convenor Craig Beacroft and Executive Officer Kym Skerritt for their efforts and organisation, ensuring that the weekend ran smoothly for the NSWCCC teams. Thanks also to the staff from the girls team, Jye Malcolm and Beth Lincoln for their help and support throughout the weekend and to the parents and families of the boys for their attendance in support of their sons over the weekend.

National Youth Championships Report A very talented and committed contingent of 14 girls travelled to Port Macquarie to compete in the National Youth Championships in September. Ably coached by Australian Women’s Representative Stephanie Halpin and Mark Heiss, the team gelled as a playing unit and friendship group. All buoyed by the common bond of hard Warm weather greeted the girls once arrived in Port Macquarie as we began our final training preparation. As the storm clouds gathered during the session the girls shared ideas on how best to break down their opposition. It was fulfilling as a coach to see the leaders in the team taking the reins and showing their commitment to the tournament. From then it was clear the next few days were going to be special.

Day one was a big day for the girls with games against Tasmania, NSWTA and ACT.

In game one the team took on Tasmania on field one and put in a dominant performance. While Tasmania is considered an emerging state, they played hard against CCC. A score of 14 – 1 was a fair indication of the two teams though. It was a try scoring feats for our wingers as Tarnii Price crossed for three tries and Claire Eisenhuth four. This game showed that our girls were happy to let the ball do the work and play as a team. An impressive performance.

Game two was a grudge match against the NSW Touch Association Development team; they fancied themselves as being able to beat their CCC counterparts. In a tight game CCC won 5-3. While the opposition was much tougher, CCC did not play to their potential and kept NSWTA in the game. Often it was an Abbey Papenhausen drive or touch that stifled the development team’s resurgence.

Day one ended with a 4 nil victory over ACT. The girls were beginning to tire and it was up to the leaders of the team Sally and Kayla to get CCC across the advantage line and into the game. The girls around them responded and with Samantha Cahill showing her speed and scoring a double, CCC finished the day with three wins.

Sarah Thornton who had contributed much in day one suffered an ankle injury that was heavily iced overnight. Sarah was our hard working and brick wall at link, she was unable to play on Day two but was valuable in the box supporting the girls. Sarah would make her mark again later in the tournament.

Day two began in different fashion. The girls were well rested and need to be to take on Central Queensland. The opposition was stepping up and CCC matched their talents with their own plus enthusiasm. A few minor errors 173 proved costly forcing CCC to do far more defence and use up far more energy than CQ. Even though the side ran hard and played very well, CQ won 3-2. Kate Murphy had a great defensive game having to shut down much of the CCC attack.

Next up was South Australia and didn’t they come out firing?!? South Australia has made great inroads in their development and are beginning to shape up as likely contenders in the 18’s tournaments. With a few girls beginning to now carry niggling injuries it was a massive effort to win 6-4 against a strong opposition. This was a game that we should and had to win, but a win that was much tougher than expected. Kayla Hay and Sally Dwyer scored a double while Zara Nicholas left others in her wake with a few displays of speed in scoring and saving tries.

Game three on any given day is never easy and with fatigue setting in QSST took control. Their smooth play was well rewarded with a 5-2 win and many of our players were left wondering “would we still makes the semi’s?” An ill disciplined driving game meant that CCC was never really able to gain the ascendancy. QSST simply had too much ball. A game where our girl’s hearts were there, but fatigue was just too much. We were looking forward to a bye on Day three.

After a rest and regroup CCC took on the might of the Northern Territory. Known for their tenacity and speed, the NT girls always put up a fight. But CCC were now on a mission and with Sabrina Green and Tahlea Rowsell leading the way with their drive and ball play CCC were able to clear the cobwebs and put on ten unanswered tries. Laura Coleman scored a double and showed the Australian selectors that she is not to be forgotten.

Our final game in the regular part of the tournament was against a strong and committed Touch New Zealand side. Playing for survival and waiting for a result from another game to go our way, the it was important that the CCC side stayed in control of this game. With the return of Sarah Thornton and the dominant game from Annabelle Regan CCC won 9-3 and never looked to be too troubled handling their foes from across the Tasman Sea.

At the conclusion of the preliminary part of the tournament CCC finished outside the semi finals (in a cruel twist the boys competition had quarter finals and semi finals). It meant that we were fighting for 5th and 6th playoff on Saturday morning.

Our final game of the tournament was an 8:30am affair and was hard to get into. The girls were cheerful in the warm up, but after a few days of hard touch and still with so many young players the competition had taken its toll. A skilful Brisbane Cobras side out played CCC in the playoff game and won 4-2. The girls were the first to declare that they struggled to get emotionally involved in the game. Brisbane brought the fire of one thousand suns, CCC weren’t lighting a match. This is not to say that it was a low point, Brittany Coe showed that she was determined to play until the final hooter and as a future leader fo this team she pressed her claims for further representative selection. The other girls followed but it was too little too late to save this game.

Since the tournament, Kayla Hay has been added to the Australian side and awarded a Blue. Brittany Coe’s contributions to the sport have also not gone unnoticed also being nominated for a Blue.

Thanks to all the parents for their commitment to this side and the CCC overall. Your help with everything during preparation and at the tournament was greatly valued by your daughters and us. Your support at the fields demonstrates that CCC is a FAMILY.

A special mention must go to Kym Skerritt and the work she did in making sure we were accommodated, entered, clothed and transported. She continues to run her department with professionalism and poise.

While some people may look the bottom line and see that we finished 6th overall it would be an understatement to say that this team is anything less than that of Championship material. Touch State of Origin being played at the same time meant that three of our top players were unavailable with a further three withdrawing after being selected due to school commitments. This is no excuse as the players that were called in as shadows all stood up to be counted. Many of these players were young for the tournament and had less touch experience than the players they were replacing. They showed that they could perform against the best junior players in the country. In fact it is the foundation that these new girls laid in 2012 that will ensure NSWCCC teams in the coming years are very strong.

After a few farewells and tears the campaign for another year is over. I certainly hope that those girls who are available for next year will return with the same attitude as they brought in 2012 and we certainly can’t wait to coach them.

The 18 girls division did not have quarter finals, but rather a semi between the top 2 from each pool. As you can see from the results table above, this was a disappointing decision for the CCC girls and coaches, who committed much time and effort in preparations.

When you look at the figures for 2nd and 3rd in their pool, the girls really deserved to go through to quaters and were confident of a good game and possible win against CHS.

They had a great round game against QSST 5 - CCC 3 in comparison to QSST 11 - CQBulls 2 The grand final result was QSST 5 - CHS 2

Hopefully next year the format will see girls division having quarter finals again, as the team usually place in the top 4 finish for the event.

TRIATHLON - 2012 ANNUAL REPORT

The 2012 Triathlon Championship was again an exciting event with very high participation rates from Catholic schools right across the state. The introduction of on-line entries via the NSWCCC website proved to be a very valuable tool. While any change to a system throws up initial difficulties, Principal’s, Sport Coordinators, parents and students quickly learnt how to use the system. As a convener, this provided far greater knowledge on the entries and athletes involved at any point in time which was a real positive.

As a result of the website late entries certainly impacted on schools. All involved will need to ensure they meet the due dates for 2013 and beyond to avoid disappointment. I am indebted to Kym Skerritt, who managed a great deal of late entries in this the initial year of transition.

The event itself ran smoothly, as a part of the NSW All School Championships. Staff representing NSWCCC, were diligent and effective in meeting all of our commitments to this event. I am appreciative to Steve Muller, Tim Kennedy, Jo Pilgrim, Elissa Kitchen, Chris Anschau and his assistants who all contributed their skill and expertise to enable the event to run well. Once again the students from St. Dominic’s College, Kingswood were outstanding. This group of students were crucial in the set up and removal of the barricades and transition area used. They were terrific ambassadors for their school and of the NSWCCC brand.

A total of 11 students from Catholic Schools progressed to the SSA event in Western Australia. This year the girls dominated the catholic representatives with 8/11 being the girls.

Result Highlights include:

Intermediate girls – Laura Cook (port), Megan Isbister (Gunnedah) and Blyth Quick taking out 1st, 2nd and 3rd at All Schools and all received medals at SSA

On a personal note, I was fortunate enough to receive a School Sport Australia – Service Award, an award I was very flattered to receive. I wish to recognize the role of NSWCCC for the ongoing support of my application to the Triathlon Management position which has allowed me eligible for such an award. It great at least in the sport of Triathlon, that Catholic School Officials get the opportunity to regularly be appointed to such positions.

I encourage staff and students interested in the 2013 event to enter early, and look forward to another successful year of Triathlon.

All results are accessible for the NSWCCC, NSW All Schools and School Sport Australia events via the NSWCCC website and the Multisport Australia website.

NSWCCC Selections Report At the NSWCCC Volleyball Selection Trials the numbers were significantly depleted due to the implementation of the new sign on facility through the website. Notwithstanding this a CCC Boys Open Volleyball team was selected.

The boys selection trials were bolstered by several players from De La Salle College Revesby who arrived on the morning of the trials as their Sports Coordinator had been told that the numbers were well down. Many of these boys were selected in the CCC Boys Open team following a morning of games and drills designed to permit the players to demonstrate their skills.

All Schools Tri-Series Report Once the teams were selected, training began at Olympic Park for the Tri-Series Competition, however with the Combined Independent Schools unable to field a team our CCC team played off against the CHS Boys and Girls teams in a Bi-Series. The Boys team had great difficulty containing the power hitting of the CHS team with an effective block. The CHS team also executed some great blocking and effectively closed down the CCC attack. Unfortunately the CCC team went down in three sets..

The outstanding players the Boys CCC Open Volleyball team was Evander Pele of De La Salle College, Revesby. It is interesting to note that Evander went on to win a Gold Medal at the National Junior Volleyball Championships playing with the NSW U17 team in July this year.

All of the players certainly gave a maximum effort , both at training and in the Bi-Series and should be congratulated.

The girls from Santa Sabina Strathfield proved much stronger than the other players present and comprised the NSW CCC team with Nam Pham also of Santa Sabina as the coach. With many girls present unable to effectively spike the ball and most not used to back court setting there was a clear delineation between the talented and skilful girls from Santa Sabina and those from other schools.

NSWCCC Selections Report The CCC Water Polo teams had mixed results this year. The trials were well attended and we were able to choose strong squads of players for both the boys and girls teams.

The teams trained on the two weekends prior to their tournaments. However our girls had disrupted preparations for a variety of reasons and did not really play to their potential.
