🏐 NETBALL NSW FAST 5

Huge congratulations to our incredible Year 12 students who hit the courts for the annual Netball NSW Fast 5 competition in Ballina last Friday!

We entered three teams into the social mixed competition and they absolutely dominated the court. The unique Fast 5 format brought a wild, fast paced style of play where tactical "Power Plays" doubled the points and a flurry of long range 2-point shots flipped the scorelines in the blink of an eye. Our teams adapted brilliantly to the chaos, playing a total of 15 games throughout the day and only losing one!

As our senior students edge closer to the end of their schooling, this tournament was a much-needed opportunity to take a well-deserved break from the books, destress and just enjoy some friendly competition together.

What makes us even prouder than the incredible scoreboard results, was the way they conducted themselves. The entire day was played in fantastic spirit, with outstanding sportsmanship shown by everyone involved.

⚽Bill Turner Football - Double Victory

Congratulations to our U15 Boys and U15 Girls Football teams for their opening wins in this year’s Bill Turner campaigns! It was a thrilling day on the pitch as both teams secured their spots in the next round.

The girls' match against Xavier Catholic College was an absolute nail-biter. After a hard fought battle, the score remained 0-0 at the full time whistle, pushing the game into a high stakes "golden goal" drop-off. In the final moments of play, the deadlock was finally broken. Thanks to a clearing through-ball from Lillian J, Bonnie M found the back of the net to secure a dramatic win for EAC!

The boys faced a physically imposing Xavier side, but they didn't let size intimidate them. Our team put on a masterclass in technical skill and composure, outmaneuvering their opponents to finish with a 2-0 victory. A massive shoutout to Mani P, whose clinical performance earned him a double!

Both teams now move onto the next round of the competition.
