All Year 5 and 6 students will be participating in an Inter-school Tennis and Cricket tournament on Friday, 26th March, at Abbett Park and Scarborough Tennis Club.

- 1 x boys cricket team
- 1 x girls cricket team
- 1 x mixed cricket team
- 3 x girls tennis teams
- 2 x boys tennis teams
Cricket and Tennis Carnival Teams 2021
Students will be accompanied by Mr Bovell, Mr Sullivan, myself and 5 parents helpers.
Tennis will be played with “red ball rules”, as per the ANZ Hot Shots program, and the Cricket will be played as per the Milo T20 Blast rules. Both game versions are designed to include players of all abilities and give students the chance to incorporate the Tennis and Cricket skills they have been practising during school sport lessons in the previous weeks. If your child has chosen Tennis, they will be required to bring their own racquet. If your child does not own a racquet, the school will supply one for them.
What to bring:
- Medication that students bring to school themselves ie. Asthma Puffer
- Grey St Dominic’s sport shirt
- Hat
- Water Bottle
- Recess and lunch
There are no canteen facilities at the venue.
Students should arrive at school at the normal time on Friday, 26th March. They will be transported by bus to and from Abbett Park. The bus will leave St Dominic’s at 9:15am and leave Abbett Park at 2:15pm.
I do require another 4 parents to supervise the tennis teams. If you can help out on the day, please complete the online form linked below. Helping will entail taking care of one of the tennis teams.
