Shore had seven representatives, the most we have ever had selected for the team, with Mr Frank Punch as the Head Coach.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Mitchell D<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Neo P<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Daniel H<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Sam W<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Thomas H<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Monte C<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Hamish G<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"is-style-swr-span-all\"><strong>Ben Hocking<\/strong> was originally selected but withdrew due to injury.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-style-swr-span-all\"><a href=\"https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/57\/2025\/07\/AFL-4-e1753850532526.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"678\" src=\"https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/57\/2025\/07\/AFL-4-e1753850532526-1024x678.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-28670\" srcset=\"https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/57\/2025\/07\/AFL-4-e1753850532526-1024x678.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/57\/2025\/07\/AFL-4-e1753850532526-768x509.jpg 768w, https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/57\/2025\/07\/AFL-4-e1753850532526-226x150.jpg 226w, https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/57\/2025\/07\/AFL-4-e1753850532526.jpg 1102w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Head Coach and Shore Representative Players for the Combined President\u2019s (GPS) XVIII Team vs CAS<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"is-style-swr-span-all\">They all played very well in a highly paced game. GPS had the lead after the first quarter, but in the end, CAS were too good with having many Swans Academy players in their squad, taking the win for the first time since 2019, winning 80- 33.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"is-style-swr-span-all\">The following day, the First XVIII held a mentor day for the Intermediate A Team. This gave the opportunity for our future stars to learn the trade of what the standards and expectations are to play in the First XVIII. The boys thoroughly enjoyed it and took a lot out of it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"is-style-swr-span-all\">In the final week, AFL also hosted the inaugural Longest Kick Competition for Years 7 to 9 on Monday lunchtime and Years 10 to 12, and staff had their kick-off on the following day. We had over 40 contestants across all year groups and six staff members. Well done to the following winners:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table is-style-swr-span-all\"><table><thead><tr><th>Year<\/th><th>Name<\/th><th>House<\/th><th>Sport<\/th><th>Distance<\/th><\/tr><\/thead><tbody><tr><td>7<\/td><td><strong>Archie Peterson<\/strong><\/td><td>Whight House<\/td><td>Junior A AFL<\/td><td>42m<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>8<\/td><td><strong>Elliott <\/strong><strong>Copeland-Ognibene<\/strong><\/td><td>Burns<\/td><td>Intermediate A AFL<\/td><td>40m<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>9<\/td><td><strong>Isaac <\/strong><strong>Kasprowicz<\/strong><\/td><td>Burrell<\/td><td>15A Rugby<\/td><td>53m<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>10<\/td><td><strong>Thomas Hamilton<\/strong><\/td><td>Gilmour<\/td><td>First XVIII AFL<\/td><td>55m<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>11<\/td><td><strong>Thomas Fuzes<\/strong> <br><strong>Daniel Harvey<\/strong> <br><strong>Hamish Gilligan<\/strong><\/td><td>Burns<br>Eldershaw &nbsp;<br>Emery<\/td><td>First XVIII AFL<br>First XVIII AFL<br>First XVIII AFL<\/td><td>58m<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>12<\/td><td><strong>William Kellet<\/strong><\/td><td>Eldershaw<\/td><td>Fourth XV Rugby<\/td><td>61m<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Staff<\/td><td><strong>Mr Ed Craig<\/strong><\/td><td>&nbsp;<\/td><td>Christian Studies, PDHPE and First XV Coach<\/td><td>59m<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image is-style-swr-span-all\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-medium\"><a href=\"https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/57\/2025\/07\/Longest-Kick-Afl-e1753850621583.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"711\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/57\/2025\/07\/Longest-Kick-Afl-e1753850621583-711x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-28671\" srcset=\"https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/57\/2025\/07\/Longest-Kick-Afl-e1753850621583-711x768.jpg 711w, https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/57\/2025\/07\/Longest-Kick-Afl-e1753850621583-948x1024.jpg 948w, https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/57\/2025\/07\/Longest-Kick-Afl-e1753850621583-768x830.jpg 768w, https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/57\/2025\/07\/Longest-Kick-Afl-e1753850621583-139x150.jpg 139w, https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/57\/2025\/07\/Longest-Kick-Afl-e1753850621583.jpg 1365w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 711px) 100vw, 711px\" \/><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Longest Kick Competition \u2013 Staff Winner, Mr E Craig<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"is-style-swr-span-all\">During the Holiday break, an invitational squad from all year groups were invited to attend a three-day training camp at Gore Hill Oval and Northbridge Lower Ground Playing Fields.
