Starting in late Term 3 and continuing into Term 4, Premier League was a successful experience for our Year 8 students. Teams were selected in Basketball, Cricket, Netball Soccer and Volleyball and were again difficult to choose thanks to incredible interest from the students. Thankfully, our fixture appeared to have the least problems with the weather, with only one game of cricket called off despite the tricky conditions over the past few months.
At the end of the home and away season, we had 4 teams qualify for finals by finishing in the top 4 of their division, with another couple just missing out. Boys and Girls Basketball, Boys Soccer and Boys Volleyball made the Semi Finals. The Girls Basketball made it through to the Grand Final against Penola but unfortunately were beaten in the final, despite all members of the team giving their absolute all to fight out the match. Reports were that most of them fell asleep on the way home, such was their exhaustion!
Congratulations to all students that participated, tried out, trained, assisted and represented our college with pride. We look forward to seeing everyone back again in 2023.
