School Sport
Zone Sport

Matches are scheduled to start at 3:30pm and finish at 4:30pm. Most of the sports offer 2 age groupings; Year 8/9 and Year 10/11/12. Registration per term ranges from $30 – $70. Uniform hire or purchase is extra.
Although there are a wide range of sports offered, two conditions need to be met before a team can be entered:
1. Sufficient players to enter a team
2. A coach or supervisor of the team
Sports offered include: Volleyball, Tennis, Basketball, Soccer, Girls Soccer, Badminton, Netball, Football, Girls Football, Table Tennis and Indoor Soccer.
Knockout Sport
Knockout sport is a competition which is organised through Secondary School Sports SA (SSSSA). As the name implies, teams will be ‘knocked out’ of the draw after a loss. This process continues until a play off in a grand final.
Many of the sports are offered at 3 age levels; Year 8/9, Year 10 and year 11/12. These sports are generally played during school hours. Cost varies from $9 to $27.
