Matt Grice, Director of Sport
Dear Parents and Guardians,
A big congratulations to our snow sports team, who competed in the Australian Interschools competition last week. We achieved fantastic results across the board, with all students performing to the best of their abilities. A heartfelt thank you to our incredible snow sports team, as well as to the students, staff, and parents, for another remarkable season.
Each week, Cranbrook Heads of Sport hold team meetings with their core coaches to ensure effective planning and implementation of coaching techniques throughout their programs. These meetings provide a structured opportunity for coaches to collaborate, share insights, and align their strategies to ensure a unified approach to student development. By discussing current progress, reviewing performance data, and refining training methods together, Heads of Sport and coaches can address any issues proactively and adapt their techniques to better meet the needs of their students. This collaborative environment fosters continuous improvement, enhances the quality of coaching, and ultimately leads to a more successful and cohesive sports program. Regular communication also strengthens the support network for both coaches and athletes, creating a more motivating and efficient training atmosphere. I thank all our coaches for their continued hard work. I encourage any parent or guardians with questions regarding a particular sport to get in contact with the Head of Sport. They will be happy to answer any questions or queries.
