Sports Report

Sarah Byron

After two weeks of rescheduling sports plans and continuing with our training, unfortunately I have had to pass on the bad news of many sports being cancelled due to Lockdown 7.0.   I am hoping that upon return of the school community we will be able to play some sport at school.

 

Netball Victoria School Championships

At this stage, I haven’t heard any news from Netball Victoria in regard to the postponement of the Netball Victoria School Championships. Further details will be sent to the teams as it is released

 

Once again, I would like to thank the Mums and ex students who are giving up their time to come along and assist with umpiring and coaching. 

 

Football

AFL Victoria have contacted me to advise me that the following football matches have been cancelled:

  • Senior girls – 23rd August
  • Yr 7/8 Boys – 1st September

At this stage we will continue to run with the below schedule and will be guided by restrictions if these will be played:

  • Junior girls – 6th September
  • Yr 9/10 Boys – 15th September

Clay Target

Clay Target training will continue Tuesday nights as we start to ramp up for the upcoming competitions. Hopefully we will see these competitions come to fruition this year.

 

Upcoming Competitions:

  • GD Field and Game, Coleraine – 14th September – depending on restrictions
  • Clay Target, Noorat – postponed to early Term 4
  • Field and Game, Minyip - 18th October
  • Clay Target, Warrnambool - 25th October

Hockey – GWR Senior Girls

Hockey, another sport that we have eagerly been training for,  has also been postponed. 

I will be in contact with the team as soon as I get further notice of future games.

 

Thank you to all the staff, students and parents that have given up many lunchtimes to continue to train during this time, especially when dates are consistently being cancelled or rescheduled. I hope that we will be able to see some of these teams on the courts/fields/ lanes again soon.

We will need to continue to be flexible as dates change due to restrictions etc. I will communicate with students as new or changing dates emerge so that you and your child/ren can prepare.
