NSWCCC 9/10 Boys Basketball

The 9/10 Boys Basketball Team competed in the NSWCCC Intermediate Boys Championships and competed strongly to continue their basketball development. After some agonisingly close losses on Tuesday, the team went two from two wins on Wednesday against Casimir Catholic College, Marrickville as well as MacKillop College, Port Macquarie. Well done boys! Thanks to super coach John Philip and Josh Portelli for accompanying the team to Sydney.

SJPC Squash Teams Shine at North Coast Schools Tournament

St John Paul College was proudly represented at the recent North Coast Schools Squash Tournament last week, with five teams showcasing their talent, determination, and outstanding sportsmanship.

Huge congratulations are in order for our Under 15s Division 2 team, who played exceptionally well throughout the day and were crowned champions of their division! Their hard work and focus paid off, resulting in a well-deserved victory.

In the highly competitive Open Boys Division 1, our two teams demonstrated incredible skill and resilience against tough opposition. Their efforts saw them secure both second and fourth place, a fantastic achievement in the top division.

We also had two girls' teams compete in the Division 3 Girls competition. For many of these players, it was their first time participating in a tournament. They embraced the challenge with wonderful enthusiasm and a positive attitude, finishing in third and fourth place. Most importantly, they had a great time and learned a lot.

Across the board, all our players represented the College with pride. They played fair, supported each other, and thoroughly enjoyed the experience. Well done to everyone involved!
