Winter Sport Finals
This weekend we have Finals for Boys' Football and Girls' Hockey and a Gala Day for BMGS Rugby at St Andrew’s Oval, Sydney University.
St Andrew’s College is running a final Rugby Day with a combined SACS/BMGS team in 13s, 14s, 16s and Opens to enable our players to play a full 15-side game of Rugby to complete the season. Our 17/18 boys will be presented with a SACS jersey to commemorate the day. This is a great opportunity for our teams and I look forward to seeing plenty of supporters there on the day.
All students are reminded that they are to wear ONLY BMGS gear for games. This includes for travel on the bus.
