Netball State Finalists

Last week, a Year 9/10 Netball team participated in the inaugural Netball Tasmania High School Cup. They battled it out all day, winning matches against Sacred Heart 31-10, New Norfolk 46-5, Taroona 33-13, and in the final match defeated St Aloysius 32-23 to advance to the State Final. The team will compete against other qualifying teams from across the state, at the Silverdome, in Launceston on the 18 September.

The team includes Year 10 students Maddi Hay, Charlotte Davies, Ella Marsh, Scarlet Malloy, Alana Wright, Sophie Coleman, Grace Pullen, Macy Bresnehan and Year 9 students Rebekah Furjanic and Jazlin Paterson. Special thanks to Coach Maria Gerathy.

Primary Netball

Our young netballers play their final games in the popular JSSATIS Primary Netball competition this week. The College has been represented well with 35 students taking to the court across four teams.

The students have been doing a great job, taking turns in various positions and improving in the basic skills of netball. The more experienced players have been patient and helpful to team mates playing netball for the first time.

The roster has also provided a wonderful opportunity for some of our more experienced secondary students to pass on some of their knowledge and skills by coaching and umpiring. Thanks to Emma Sullivan, Aimee Stacey, Jess Owen, Bronte Johnston, Stella Riseley, Lucy Balfour, Grace Rowbottom and Olivia Hart for assisting with the coaching throughout the term. Thanks also to the parents that have coached, managed and umpired teams, including Tamika Ransom, Melissa Kaye, Jenny Geappen, Imogen Geappen and Gabrielle Falconer, and staff member Mrs Anne Crawford for assisting with umpiring.

Hockey Grand Finalists

Congratulations to the 1st Grade Hockey team that competed in the Grand Final against the reigning premiers, St Mary’s last week. The team competed strongly in the roster, which includes teams with students up to Year 12. They finished the roster in second position, and defeated St Mary’s 2-1 in the 2nd Semi Final to advance directly to the grand final. Unfortunately the team couldn’t repeat that feat in the grand final. After being down 2-3 with a few minutes to go, they were able to score a late goal, pushing St Mary’s to extra time, however St Mary’s were able to score a sudden death goal to take out the premiership.

The team includes Year 10 students, Sarah Wilson-Haffenden, Maisy Sansom, Olivia Farrell, Emma Brough, Tessa King, Molly Marshall; Year 9 students, Maddison Brooks and Taylor Brooks; Year 8 students Anna Cosentino, Charlotte Howells, Isabella Lowe, Reese Noye, Summer Bennetto, Sophia Di Vento, Felicity Wilson-Haffenden and goalie Jessica Stevens. Thanks to Coach Tina Stevens.

Exciting news for Maddison and Taylor Brooks, who have been selected to represent Hockey Tasmania in the New Zealand Hockey League and the New Zealand Senior Tournament in Tauranga, New Zealand in September. Congratulations Maddi and Tay.

Primary Hockey

The Primary rosters have also drawn to a close for the students in Years 1 – 6. The students have done a fabulous job committing to the roster on a Saturday morning. Well done particularly to the Year 1 students and other students who were trying hockey for the first time. We hope they enjoyed the season and will be back for more. Thanks to all the families for their support with these teams, and particularly Vanessa Copeland and Rebeccah O’Halloran, staff members Mrs Alison Judd and Miss Natalie Reid and students Jessica Stevens, Reese Noye, Isabella Lowe, Ruby King, Rhiannon Lincoln and Ursula Nation for their support. The Year 3-6 students have another opportunity to play hockey in Term 3 with afternoon rosters at the Hockey Centre on turf.
