JTCC SPORT UPDATE - Week 11

Our last Tuesday Sport for the term saw the sun come out and everyone able to get out and about for some physical and recreational activities as well as MISA trials being run for our Term 2 sports. Teams will be finalised during Week 1, term 2 ready for Round 1 to start in the 2nd week. Thank you to all students and staff for an overwhelming positive first term of sport.  

MISA overall results for Term 1 are below, with the school championship points  still being  progressed due to the number of cancelled rounds.

 With the past wet weather  the JTCC Cross Country carnival event has been postponed to week 1, term 2 -  Wednesday 27th April. 

A few general reminders:

• Students who missed out on MISA or , there are many future opportunities to represent JTCC, keep an eye out on the Sport Bulletin Board in the A-block corridor and on the Compass Newsfeed. 
•  A reminder that consent for all sporting events must be given via the Parent Portal on Compass. Please ring the school if you have issues logging in or accessing Events. 
• A number of Diocesan events have been postponed or modified - please see the updates below.

Congratulations

	Dante Foweraker (Year 7) has been selected in the NSW Metro Slammers team to play in the U14’s Nationals Softball tournament over the Easter long weekend in Canberra. Good luck Dante!
	Dom Baker (year 8) race in the National Athletics Championships over the weekend, earning himself the nickname of Dom “the showman” Baker from the commentators as he fired up the crowd to cheer him home on the final stretch of the 800m. Dom raced in the U15 Para ambulant 800m race, finishing in 4th place. JTCC is very proud of your efforts Dom.

Our Diocesan calendar has been heavily impacted by wet weather, seeing cancellations and postponements for a number of diocesan events. An individual selection trial will be held for Diocesan touch instead for the nominated boys, whilst the girls selection will be a ‘paper trial’ only.  Team meetings, trials and training will be held soon, students are encouraged to read the Compass Newsfeed. Students who have been selected in teams already for Tennis and Boys Touch Football should have received their permission notes on Compass. No permission = no participation.
