At Sydney Catholic Schools we believe that sport is for everybody, not just for the elite athlete.
Our sports programs support students of all ages and abilities to enjoy the benefits of sport in competitive and non-competitive settings. They promote skill, confidence and values of honesty and fairness, teamwork, and equity.
We offer:
- competitive pathways for primary, secondary and multi-class athletes.
- a weekly interschool sport program. Schools compete in conferences that end with a ‘Sydney championship’.
- exposure to more than 38 different sports from Kindergarten to Year 12.
- championships and gala days.
- school holiday sports camps and ‘Try a sport’ days.
- Australia’s only weekly age-specific Unified Sports competition, which joins people with and without physical and intellectual disabilities on the same team.
OUR SPORT STRUCTURE
Our students have opportunities to participate in sports against other schools in the Archdiocese of Sydney, and in some competitions against other schools across New South Wales.
Talented students can trial for higher level representation that may lead to development camps, further training and state and national competitions.
REPRESENTATIVE PATHWAYS
Details of representative sport pathways for eligible primary and secondary students can be found on the CSNSW Sport page.
Students aged 8 – 19 with a disability have opportunities to compete at school level through to national competition in line with their ability.
To compete at a representative level, students must gain classification through the appropriate sporting organisation.
