Sporting Teams - Sign up with DCS for 2025
A great aspect of community at DCS centers around students and parents coming together. One avenue of this is the sporting teams. Each year we have many students and parents involved in the sporting teams at DCS. We field teams in the following sports; Soccer, Netball, Basketball and Touch Football (during Term 4). Parents, please be aware that some sports do have a minimum age requirement.
Sign up now using the form below to be included in the DCS teams (please note, your official sign-up and registration for the sport is usually done through each sporting organisation, this initial sign-up form is so DCS can form our teams and you do not miss out on playing with DCS).
Please note that this is an expression of interest only and teams will be created as forms are returned. It is recommended that forms are completed early to ensure a place in your child’s preferred sporting team. Any student with unpaid registration at the beginning of the season will forfeit their place as team members must be registered before play commences.
The fun of the sporting community is being involved. As a parent, if you are interested in helping with coaching, or the sports committee assisting in putting teams together with administration, please complete your details below.
Please remember that Devonport Christian School is a child safe organisation. All coaches, volunteers and parent helpers are required to comply with the DCS Child Protection Policy, hold a current Working with Vulnerable People card and have completed our Volunteer and Parent Helpers Course for 2025.
We look forward to seeing you and your children feel connected in our sporting teams at DCS this year.
