Representative Sport

There are a few trials open at the moment. Please ensure your child is looking through the notices to see what trials are open.

All student forms for school representative pathways must come through the Sports Office so that we can approve leave and get appropriate principal consent to trial. Thank-you to all students who have been checking notices and following this process. We congratulate the large number of students who have found success in these trials and competitions. We do not generally receive results from State or National Championships so if students are involved, can you please send these results and photos through to our sport@carmelcollege.qld.edu.au address so that we can share this with our community.

Please check emails if your child was to attend a trial that was postponed. I have sent out a number of emails to the student and parents of those affected.

SECA Season 1 Wrap-Up & Season 2 on the Horizon!

SECA Season 1 has come to a close as of yesterday, 29 May, 2025, and what a season it’s been! Our teams showed incredible spirit, determination, and teamwork, with some fantastic results across the board. Whether it was on the field, court, or walking track, our students gave it their all and represented our school with pride.

As we celebrate these achievements, we’re already looking ahead—Season 2 preparations are well underway! Stay tuned for more information coming soon on teams, trials, and schedules.

Let’s keep the momentum going into the next season! A gentle reminder that SECA days are compulsory school days and attendance is for everyone.

Netball – Catholic Cup

We’re excited to share some fantastic results from our recent netball competitions!

Our Open Girls Netball Team delivered an outstanding performance, finishing first overall and proudly bringing home the championship shield! Their teamwork, determination, and skill were on full display throughout the tournament.

The Open Boys Team also had a great campaign, finishing in a third place. Their consistent effort and sportsmanship were a credit to the school, and they should be incredibly proud of their achievement.

Our Intermediate team also had a strong showing, picking up a win or two and gaining valuable experience along the way. It’s wonderful to see such enthusiasm and talent across all levels.

Thank you to our coaching staff in Ms Morton, Ms Brohman, Ms Smith, Mr Hopkins and Ms McNuff for umpiring.

AFLQ Schools Cup – Youth (Yr 9&10) & Senior (Yr11&12)

Our AFLQ Schools Cup teams have made us incredibly proud with their outstanding performances!

For the first time playing together, our Girls Youth and Senior teams showed fantastic teamwork, spirit, and determination. It was a great debut outing, and they should be commended for their effort and sportsmanship on the field.

Meanwhile, our Boys Youth and Senior teams delivered exceptional results—both winning their grand finals and securing a spot in the next level of the competition! Their hard work, skill, and commitment truly paid off, and we can’t wait to see what they achieve next.
