Congratulations Tyrone!

For 2 weeks in January Tyrone Fergie (10B) competed in the 2019 Australian National Youth Baseball Championships at BISP as a member of the Baseball NSW U/16 team.

They played against teams representing each state and territory in Australia.

During the pool games they won all 7 games, scoring 75 runs and only having 18 runs scored against them. 

In the finals pool they beat Victoria Blue 4-3, then Victoria White 12-2, and then Western Australia 8-1. 

In the Grand Final they came up against Vic Blue again and came from behind early to run out winners 10-3 to win the gold medal and become Australian Champions.

A fantastic achievement to go through the tournament undefeated against the best U/16 players in Australia.

Congratulations Rachel!

During the Christmas holiday break, Rachel Bagot (11B) represented NSW at the FFA Futsal Nationals January 9-13 in Sydney.  Her team, 17 girls Lightning, was the younger of the two NSW teams to compete in the championship for that age group. After what as a gruelling and hard-fought competition, Rachel and her team made it to the grand final against a strong Canberra team. The match proved to be a close contest with the NSW girls coming away with a win in a penalty shoot out and a very well deserved National Championship.

Congratulations to Rachel Bagot (11B) and the NSW 17 girls Lightning, the FFA Futsal National Champions.
