SPORTS NEWS
Welcome back to another busy term P.E wise here at St. Josephs. On the agenda this term we have Hockey, Hoop Time, State Cross Country, State Football, and Volleyball.
Hockey
Belinda van Zelst will again be coming in to take our Hockey students for their final training session ahead of the Division competition this Friday 15th July, 2022. Training will be held at Wednesday lunchtime. Could all students who are in the teams please come along to the hall for the session. On Friday, students will need to bring along a mouthguard, long socks, and wear their sports uniform. The school will provide Hockey sticks and shin pads, however if your child has these they are welcome to bring their own. Goodluck to our Hockey teams.
Lawn Bowls
Below is an excerpt from an email I received from a representative at Bowls Victoria. Any student who represented the school at Lawn Bowls are welcome to register for this.
My name is Jackson Swan, and I am the Participation and Events intern at Bowls Victoria. I am reaching out to offer an opportunity for any students who took part in the School Sport Victoria Bowls competition, to participate in an Open School Talent Search in front of Bowls Victoria’s under 18 State Team Coach Matt Flapper. Matt is a Commonwealth Games Bronze Medallist with a range of experience and knowledge in bowls. This talent search is seeking to create a pathway for student bowlers to develop and improve as they experience more than just school bowls.
Contact the school for more information.
State Cross Country
On Thursday 14th July our 5 Cross Country runners will compete at the State Championships in Melbourne, this is a huge achievement to make it to this stage. Congratulations and good luck to everyone involved.
Hoop Time Basketball
Hoop time trials will be held early on this term, please keep an eye out in the newsletter for when these trials will take place.
