Join us at The Gap SHS sports hall on Saturday, August 3rd, to support the Premier Volleyball League finals! The first game commences at 5.30pm with the second to follow at 7pm. Come cheer on the teams and enjoy a fantastic evening out. We'll have a BBQ and refreshments available from 4.30pm onwards, including alcoholic beverages for the adults. Our very own Gap SHS students will be representing the school as ball kids for this exciting event. Don't miss out on the action!
We're thrilled to announce that our Year 7 trials for 2025 have concluded and offer letters have been sent out. The interest in our program has been overwhelming, and we're excited to welcome our new cohort. While the main selection process is complete, we'll still consider standout applications throughout the year. So, if your child is keen to join us, don't hesitate to reach out. Our recent second "Come and Try" event saw an increase in both numbers and talent, and we're committed to growing this initiative further. Mark your calendars for our next training in Week 8!
In other exciting news, we're gearing up to send 42 of our top athletes to the Senior Schools Cup. Four teams will be competing over the weekend of August 9th, 10th, and 11th. We've selected the strongest players across all year levels to ensure we compete at the highest level and represent The Gap with pride. Stay tuned for updates on their performance!
We recently had the pleasure of hosting Bremer State High School for a fantastic day of volleyball. The event showcased the talent and sportsmanship of both schools. Our open boys' squad treated spectators to an exciting exhibition match, demonstrating the high level of play we strive for at The Gap SHS. Meanwhile, our Year 9 boys and Year 7 athletes engaged in friendly matches against their Bremer counterparts, providing valuable experience and fostering friendships between the two schools. These inter-school events are crucial for developing our athletes' skills and building relationships within the broader volleyball community. We look forward to more such opportunities in the future!
