Senior School Sports Update

Year 10-12 Girls MISA Softball 

This season coaching the 10–12 Girls Softball team for MISA school sport was truly outstanding. The team finished undefeated, a testament to their determination, teamwork, and natural talent. Despite having no formal training sessions, the girls consistently demonstrated excellent listening skills, quickly adapting to instructions and executing game plans with precision.

The grand final was a tightly contested match, with the score locked at 5–5 after the first inning. Our team responded brilliantly in the second, pulling off a thrilling triple play, a rare and exciting moment that highlighted their sharp instincts and unity on the field. From start to finish, our success was driven by aggressive batting and smart baserunning, which kept constant pressure on our opponents and ultimately secured a 10–5 victory. Beyond the scoreboard, the girls displayed exceptional sportsmanship throughout the season, always supporting one another and showing genuine respect to their competitors. It was a highly successful campaign, and I couldn’t be prouder of the effort, attitude, and energy they brought to every game.

Year 7 Girls Netball CASA Gala Day

On Friday 12th September, our college hosted the Year 7 girls CASA Netball Gala Day. Eight schools competed in what proved to be an enjoyable day of high quality Netball. Our Thomas Hassall team acquitted themselves well, playing with skill and tenacity. While results were mixed, the girls finished on a high with a hard fought win. After the pool and semi-final matches, two teams stood out and earned their way to the Grand Final. In a highly tense, see-sawing encounter, the class of St Luke’s Grammar School shone through as they narrowly defeated a gallant ‘The Illawarra Grammar School. Whilst there was a competitive atmosphere throughout the day, the camaraderie and sportsmanship between players from all teams really stood out and we look forward to hosting another successful event in 2026.
