From the Sportsmaster | Junior School

A gorgeous Saturday morning greeted us for the resumption of Summer Sport last weekend.

In Basketball, we had a 12 match intra-school derby with TGS Prep, all matches being held at Strathfield. The 5/6 matches were split four games apiece and in Year 4 we took the honours 3-1. Our 4A and 4B teams both had impressive victories along with our 4Ds in their inaugural match. Other winners on the day were the 8^th V, 6^th V, 5^th V and 3^rd V.

In Cricket, the 6A & 6B teams were both narrowly beaten by St. Aloysius at Bressington Park. Our Year 5 teams went down to Grammar Edgecliff at Queen’s Park.

In Touch Football we had two big wins over Knox at Cooke Park and in Tennis we went down narrowly 7 sets to 5 against Shore. Our Intra Sport boys played their first Ultimate Frisbee matches at Cooke Park’s synthetic field.

Tuesday morning 7-8am training has re-commenced.  5A & 6A Cricketers, 4A V, 4B V 1^st V, 2^nd V Basketballers & Touch Football As are all expected to attend the next four Tuesday mornings weather permitting, other boys in these sports are welcome to join in these extra sessions. The final week for this will be 15 November.

I remind everyone to download and check the new TGS app which includes the term’s matches under ‘fixtures for the season’ and the weekly option both within the sports icon. Please have notifications turned on in settings. Most boys who competed in IPSHA competition in Term 1 have stayed in their original teams but there could still be a little movement this week as teams are finalised for the next five weeks of matches. As usual the app, The Junior School News and TGS community site on Fridays will also confirm venues, times, and team lists.

Year 3 are reminded that they require a mouthguard for their remaining rugby sessions.

If anyone requires leave from sport, they must contact Mr Dunn directly to request this and preferably at least 10 days prior. (mdunn@trinity.nsw.edu.au)
