Interschool Sport Report

The Year 8 students had their first Sport Round Robin Day for 2019. They participated in the Inner North Division Carnivals for Cricket, Tennis and Volleyball against the schools in our Division: University HS, Princes Hill, Richmond HS, Fitzroy HS and Brunswick SC.

The results across all sports were very positive for MGC, with the A teams for all three sports winning their respective tournaments, earning the right to represent the Inner North Division at the Regional Finals.

Last Friday, the A-Team travelled by bus to the Boroondara Tennis Centre. We had a successful win against the University High School girls A-team as we are now moving on to regionals. We won all of our singles matches, although it was not easy. Everyone was carefully watching and supporting each other when the pressure was building up in each match. Overall, we had an eventful day and are looking forward to Regionals.

Another highlight was the number of students that participated in the social volleyball tournament held at MGC. Out of the 16 teams, 8 were from MGC. This demonstrates the positive impact that our sport and physical education program has on our students.

Cricket: Thursday, October 22nd

Tennis: Tuesday, May 7th

Softball: Tuesday, May 7th

The next coming weeks are also quite busy on the sporting calendar. The Year 7’s have their Round Robin Day for Term 1 on March 21st, while our Swimming Team compete in the Regional Championships on March 27th, aiming to qualify for the coveted State Finals.
