CPS RUGBY KNOCKOUT
Congratulations to the team that competed in the Diocesan Rugby Trials last term. The St Nicholas School team won the day and will now travel to Sydney to compete in the Catholic Primary Schools Rugby Knockout on Monday, 5th August 2019.
Well done to Archie Gavin, Ben Sawyer and Toby Robinson who competed at the Polding Carnival last Monday in Forbes. The boys played well and displayed outstanding sportsmanship.
CODE OF CONDUCT
As the winter sports for the year are all beginning, this is a timely reminder for players, coaches and parents of the Code of Conduct expected at St Nicholas.
Those parents who have very kindly volunteered to coach a team are to be listened to and all instructions to be followed by players both at training and when competing. Should you have an issue with your child's coach please speak to them privately without your children being present. Show respect for your coaches and their decisions.
Parents should not interfere or enter the playing field during a game as the on field officials should be left to adjudicate. If parents have concerns they should approach the coach at a break and not the children.
Should a player, coach or parent not respect this code of conduct while representing St Nicholas it may prevent their inclusion in teams in the future as this is not the image that we wish to portray in the wider community.
