The CC Sport program aims to engage students in a range of activities throughout their schooling while developing their appreciation for sports.

Increasingly, data analysis has been applied to many schools' Cocurricular programs, creating a ‘win at all cost’ mentality. Unfortunately, this can result in sacrificing good sportsmanship in order to gain a competitive edge.

Sports and activities should be enjoyable for all, and at Clayfield College, sportsmanship is always rewarded over results. An admirable sportsperson embodies fairness, ethics, respect and a sense of fellowship, and these qualities shine in the best sportsperson during a loss. Students are encouraged to pursue their own version of excellence while exemplifying sportsmanship.

Involvement in CC Sports and Activities

Attendance at Training 

 

I ask that all students commit to their attendance at training and present ready for games, home or away and lead-up meets. Representing the College is something to be valued. Being a team member who can be depended on entails sacrifice and commitment, regardless of the level or activity. 

 

Uniform 

 

We want to ensure we represent the College and ourselves on and off the field maintaining highest standards. 

What you can do:

  • Stay up-to-date with information by checking the Sport section of the College App. 
  • Sign on to sports via Parent Lounge when they become available 
  • Install the College App on your phone so that push notifications can advise of any adjustments e.g. Weather interruptions, training updates, game day schedules and general notices. 
  • Foster lifelong learning by encouraging students to seek advice on how to improve

What we do:

  • Program design and coaching with a focus on accountability and alignment
  • Provide high-quality coaching within a considered curriculum
  • Provide transparency to assist a fair and thorough trial and selection process

COMMUNICATION

 

A reminder that communication should initially be directed to the individual coach or the program coordinator. The College App > Sport will be continually updated with information for each program.

CC Sport has an official Instagram page, which is being used to provide highlights of from within our programs and celebrate our students’ achievements and contribution to sport.
