Diocesan Swimming
Congratulations to all the students who took part in the Diocesan Swimming Carnival last Friday. Everyone who participated made the most of the day and showed true St Edward’s Spirit. A special mention to Cooper Tongs who has qualified for the Diocesan Team to compete in the Polding Trials in Homebush later this month.

Touch Football
Touch Football Draw
To register for Touch Football it is a little different this year. Registrations in 2021 will now be done through MySideline. Players will need to create a MySideline account before registering. If a player is involved with Rugby League or League Tag they would already have an account for that. This is the best link to use for players:
https://profile.mysideline.com.au/register/
If registering as a player, just click the player box and type in 2340.
Scroll down until you find your child’s team to register into.
OzTag
Last weekend we had a number of St Edward's students travel to Sydney to compete in the Junior OzTag State Cup. The Taipans Girls Under 11s consisted of these fabulous St Edward's players: Sienna Caslick, Anika Boney, Isabel O’Connell, Ebony Pepperell, Jacinta-Dean Hoffman and Brodie Burrows. The girls played undefeated all the way through to the Grand Final where they went down to Shellharbour. The girls played with such passion and a love for the game and that stood out with the way they held together as a team.
Taipans Boys Under 9s
Cash Hoffman and Isaac Heywood both represented Tamworth in the Under 9’s at the State Championships. Their team went through with 7 wins and 1 draw until they went down in the Grand Final against Nepean. This was the boys first time playing at representative level and they should be very proud!
Basketball
By now you should have received an email on how to register your child for Basketball Terms 1 & 2.
For those of you not aware, we have combined both St Edward's and St Joseph's schools for basketball this year in order to have smaller teams and give more players an opportunity to play. Combining forces is seen as a good option, allowing the opportunity to mix with other children from other schools.
Since the team lists were originally published there have been a few players who have asked to join, and a few players pull out. As such, teams can still change over the coming weeks. You are still ok to register with the team your child is in. If there is a change in team, we can make any adjustments with little or no problem. If you are aware of other children who would like to play, please let us know.
Some teams are still in need of a coach or a manager. You do not have to be a basketball person to be able to assist in this regard. As a coach for over 30 years I am able to give guidance as to the basic concepts and the types of things you should be showing the kids. At this point the focus should be on participation and having fun. It would be great to have a parent on the sideline for each game, if only to manage regular subs for the teams.
Any questions please contact the St Ed's Basketball committee via basketballsteds@gmail.com.
