SCS Sport Report

Junior Oztag Report 

The Junior Oztag team successfully made it to the grand final for their conference with then an unfortunate loss against Domremy College in extra time. The students played to the best of their abilities until that final siren. The team worked extremely hard throughout the whole season and developed new skills along the way. Having only 2 losses in the whole season the team kept their head up, and worked cohesively to get to the grand finals. With a mix of skills from both the year 7 and 8 students the team had a very successful experience and should be extremely proud of the achievements they accomplished.

Intermediate Oztag Report 

The Intermediate Oztag Team successfully competed in their conference by taking home Gold against Bethlehem College and dominating the rest of the Competition. MSCW then compete at the Sydney Catholic Schools Oztag Championships. Unfortunately, the team was unsuccessful in the semi-finals against OLSH Kensington, therefore they were unable to progress to the grand finals in the Championships. Overall, the Intermediate Oztag Team placed 3rd in all of Sydney Catholic Schools, beating Mount St Joseph, Milperra. Throughout this season, the players have worked extremely hard by developing new skills both on and off the field. This resulted in a great improvement in personal growth and creating everlasting friendships as athletes enjoyed the rewarding experience. All players should be proud of their achievements and effort applied. The team’s talent and ambitions are already planning to strive for a Gold in the Sydney Catholic School Championships next year.

It was evident that the Senior Oztag team had great fun throughout the season and could not be happier with placing second in their SCS conference.
