NSW CCC Open Waterpolo

On Wednesday 26 October, MSCW sent an Open Waterpolo team consisting of players from Years 7-11 to compete at the NSWCCC Open Waterpolo Championships at Sydney Olympic Park Aquatic Centre. 

The team faced tough competition in their first two games against Monte, North Sydney and Loretto Kirribilli. Both of these teams ended up being the grand finalists, Loretto just winning in the end. For the remainder of the day, the championship proved to be tough against Domremy-Five Dock, Santa Sabina-Strathfield, Brigidine-St Ives and St Scholastica’s-Glebe. Unfortunately, the team wasn’t able to get a win on the scoreboard on the day, although their fight never changed and all girls did the best they could against the experienced competition. 

We commend your results girls and are proud of your efforts during the day.  

National Sailing Championships

Congratulations to Isabella Lozevski who recently represented Australia in the New Caledonian Optimist National Sailing Championships. Isabella was one of 7 girls selected to the Australian Optimist Girls Squad based on her performance during the 2022 Australian Nationals in January where over 200 sailors from around the country competed for a position on an Australian team.

The team sailed for 4 consecutive days, completing 19 races in total amongst a large fleet of 70 boats, representing Australia, New Zealand, France, and Tahiti.  The girls performed admirably under tough conditions with consistent 25 knot winds and choppy waters. Over the week they learned and developed many new skills which will prove invaluable when she competes in the 2023 Australian Nationals in January, with the goal to again secure a position in a team, and represent Australia internationally. 

Awesome effort!
