Junior Schools Cup

The Junior Schools Cup proved to be a watershed moment for our program, with EVP teams dominating the top division competitions. Our presence in three out of four gold medal matches demonstrated the exceptional depth and quality of our young athletes.

The Year 8 girls displayed tremendous grit and skill, securing a well-deserved silver medal by earning their spot in the gold medal match through saving 7 match points. Our Year 8 and Year 7 boys' teams both powered through to claim gold in their respective divisions, marking an extraordinary achievement for our program.

 

What truly stood out was more than just the medals – it was the remarkable spirit of our athletes. The comradery reached new heights as students embodied our program's values, playing with heart and demonstrating exemplary teamwork and sportsmanship. Their bravery under pressure and unwavering support for one another perfectly exemplified what the EVP stands for.

Primary School Come and Try Day

Our recent Come and Try Day welcomed enthusiastic primary school students who got their first taste of the EVP experience. The session was filled with energy and potential as these young athletes began their journey toward becoming future EVP stars. Their eagerness and raw talent hint at an exciting future for our program.

Senior Awards Night

The Senior Awards Night was a special evening where we recognized athletes who have truly embodied the EVP culture and values. This year's award recipients demonstrated exceptional dedication to our program's principles:

 

Elite Character Award: Peter H 

Elite Competitor Award: Henry B 

Elite Commitment Award: Tully G 

Legacy Award: Harvey S 

 

These athletes have set the standard for what it means to be an EVP member, showing that success comes not just from athletic ability, but from character, commitment, and competitive spirit.

 

Their achievements serve as inspiration for all our athletes, proving that when you buy into the culture and commit to the program's values, excellence follows both on and off the court.
