It\u2019s been a long pre-season commencing back in January holidays. This was then followed by the Senior Squad participating in the Challenge Day at Palm Beach, a washed-out trial match vs Riverview and then a second trial match vs St Aloysius going down 127-42. During the Holiday break, the Senior Squad toured down to Adelaide to play matches against Prince Alfred and St Peter\u2019s College (details of the tour were published in last week\u2019s Shore Weekly Record).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The first week back for Term 2 officially marks the commencement of the Independent Schools Cup Competition. On Thursday night, we announced the First XVIII Team by hosting the \u201cPresentation of the Guernsey\u201d event at The Emery Room, Northbridge, after training. Students and their families were invited to receive their guernsey with special guest Shore Old Boy and current Sydney Swans AFL Premiership player Sam Wicks (\u201917). He was introduced by Mr Henderson who spoke about his toughness and attitude on the field. Sam then spoke to the boys about how he went from Shore to Sydney Swans and how hard he had to work and adapt his game when he originally was not selected at state level. The boys were very excited and honoured to receive their guernsey from Sam and should be very proud of making the team.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With torrential rain leading into the weekend, the First XVIII was fortunate enough to have a Friday night game on the synthetic ground at Gore Hill Oval against early-season favourites, Newington College. Shore knew Newington was going to be tough competition; with the wet conditions, it was going to be even trickier. The boys opened with a strong quarter, getting a few forward 50 entries but unfortunately not being able to convert to any large scores. In the second-quarter, the boys managed to increase their intensity around the stoppages to slow Newington with their centre clearances. Neo Pressley <\/strong>was unstoppable for the duration of the game, consistently supporting his team mates in getting the ball upfield and even scoring a goal in the final quarter. The boys remained positive at the end of the game with the coaches finding points for the boys to build on for future games.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Unfortunately, the remaining games were cancelled. Hopefully, the weather clears up, and the boys can play their first match for the season.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Unfortunately, the start of the season has been disappointing, with another week of washouts. Apart from the First XVIII getting a few trial games in, all other teams are yet to play a match due to now two competitions and one trial match washed out. The boys are eager to get on, so fingers crossed that the weather clears up for next week with our third-round clash against Trinity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

During the week, we had Hamish G (<\/strong>Year 10), Mack Fortune<\/strong> (Year 10), Thomas H<\/strong> (Year 9), and Michael Hocking<\/strong> (Year 9) trial for the U15 CIS AFL Team. Congratulations to Thomas H<\/strong> for making the team. 120 trialled at the commencement of the day. This was then cut to 36, and by the end of the day, they cut it down to a final 22. A great effort to beat so many talented, up-and-coming players.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
