School Sport Victoria State Diving Finalists and State Champion 

Congratulations to two of our students who represented Blackburn High School at the School Sport Victoria EMR and State Diving Finals, which were held at the Melbourne Sports and Aquatic Centre in Albert Park. 

Jackson F competed in the 13-14 years boys event and Torin W in the 17-20 years boys event. Jackson finished in 1st place and Torin in 2nd in the EMR event that was held in the morning. This qualified them both for the State Final in the afternoon. 

Jackson was selected to represent Team Vic for the School Sports Australian National Diving Championships in August.  We wish Jackson luck in South Australia.    

Both boys dived really well and Jackson came away as the State Champion and Torin finished in 3rd place. Congratulations to both boys!

Good Luck Benjamin.

Jack H – Year 9 (Melba) 

Four Australian teams contested in the U20 2024 Thailand Junior Volleyball Championships. The tour’s objective was for the players to improve individual skills and team structures at an international competition.  

After the teams finished competing at the tournament, they continued to train within the touring teams and playing “friendly” matches against local Thailand club teams.
