Congratulations to Sienna Edmunds, Amber Lindfield, Angus Hobson and Mikayla Straney who travelled to Eastern Creek last Friday to compete in the NSW CPS Cross Country. This year all the races were streamed live on the NSW Catholic Schools website, so it was quite exciting to be able to see our runners cross the finish line.

In order to select a NSW representative track & field team for this event, the NSWPSSA will be holding a special selection trial.

Participation at these trials will be via a formal application to NSWPSSA and athletes MUST compete at this event to achieve selection in the 2019 NSW representative team.

An entry fee will be applicable to successful athletes.
