Kristy Reed – High School Sport Co-ordinator

Sydney Schools Cup

As the term comes to an end, so too does the Term 3 Sydney Schools Cup program. Congratulations to the three Years 7/8 boys basketball teams who have been playing weekly fixtures against other independent schools each Tuesday afternoon for Terms 2 and 3. Under the guidance of our School Coach, Hank Foster, the teams have had a very successful tournament.

Congratulations also to the dedicated group of Year 7 girls who have been involved in the volleyball program. As host of these fixtures each week, I was very pleased to see such improvement in the skill level in this new sporting option, as well as the comradery amongst not only the Emanuel students involved but also between the teams of the visiting schools. Much thanks to Abigail Lax for her excellent coaching throughout the term.

In Term 4 the Sydney Schools Cup will be offering a girls futsal competition and a boys cricket competition. This will be open to Years 7/8 girls and Years 7-9 boys. The competition will once again be held weekly on Tuesday afternoons. If your child is interested in competing in this competition please have them contact me for further information.
