Junior Sports Report

Todd Woodbridge Cup Tennis Stage 2 and 3 

In Term 2, Mrs McAinsh will share expressions of interest for Todd Woodbridge Cup tennis via the Trinity App. 

The Todd Woodbridge Cup is a primary school competition for stage 2 (Years 3 and 4) and stage 3 (Years 5 and 6) that uses modified equipment, numeric scoring and mixed gender teams. 

The competition commences with school zone events followed by regional playoffs (Term 3) and finally a state final that is held at Sydney Olympic Park each year (Term 4). 

The Todd Woodbridge Cup is not just about selecting the best students, but encouraging participation, providing a positive experience playing tennis, growing friendships and giving students the opportunity to represent their school in a team environment. For the majority of students, this may be their first experience representing their school. 

Exact dates for the are to be confirmed.
