NSW All Schools Football Championships 

NSW CCC Football provides opportunities for students in the Secondary Catholic School system in NSW to play for their schools in a state wide round robin competition, to represent their educational areas against other Dioceses in the State, to gain selection in CCC team and play against students from the Private and Public school sector, and ultimately to gain selection in NSW and Australian teams selected from Secondary Schools in the Catholic, Public and Private sectors.

The CCC team this year consisted of 16 students from a number of Catholic Schools across NSW and in that team, we had one student from MSCW Matilda Gilbert.

Matilda’s exceptional performance as the team’s goalkeeper during the tournament deserves recognition. Her unwavering commitment to excellence and receptive attitude towards advice contributed significantly to her success throughout the championship.
