Throughout the first two terms of the school year, Greenvale Primary School has taken part in the Greenvale District Interschool Sport competition. There are seven sports that are divided into a summer and winter competition. The summer sports are Cricket, Teeball, Basketball and Volleyball, while over the winter we competed in Soccer, AFL and Netball.
Summer sports were completed in a weekly format where eight schools in the district travelled to each other to compete each Friday morning. We had both a Girls and a Boys/Mixed team competing each week. Winter sports were completed in a Gala Day format where all schools competed against each other in one day in a round robin with a final at the end of the day. All of the sports have now completed their allotment of matches so let’s check out how our teams went!
Summer
Cricket
The Boys cricket team finished their summer season with five wins and one loss, finishing second overall for the competition while our girls team went undefeated the whole season and have qualified for the Division cricket finals in Term four.
Teeball
Both boys and girls Tee Ball teams had great years, winning four games each, a draw and only losing once. Unfortunately they both finished 2nd on the ladder and narrowly missed qualifying for the next stage.
