Trials
Senior basketball trials are held in Term 1. Students will be advised of the dates and times via the school notices and the sports noticeboard. All trials are compulsory to attend. Year 7 & 8 students will be invited to trial approximately 4 weeks prior to the zones day to complete team selection and begin training.
Team Selection
Teams are selected at the discretion of the sports department and the selectors. Factors that are taken into consideration include trial attendance, trial performance, organisation and fee payments.
A highlight of the sporting calendar could be our full school athletics day. Spirits are high and inter-house competition rises as the students walk to the Trusts Stadium for an action-filled day. All students participate in our school athletics day while those who qualify further will attend the Western Zone days or the Auckland Champs. Please see below the proposed dates:

| Auckland Champs (years 9-13) | Week 5 |
Soon after athletics day comes swimming sports, another fun and busy day for all at the college. Swimming sports involves all students from years 7-13 walking down to West Wave Aquatic Centre to take part in a day of competitive and non-competitive swimming events. Below are the proposed dates:

One Day Tournaments
The idea of this is to get as many students competing at their skill level and within similar age groups. Each sport is organized into One Day Tournaments throughout each term. This helps with students who play for both school and clubs within that sport.
Most fees are paid through our affiliation fees, with the exception of transport, if the College Van is available. We sometimes depend on parent help with transport and will send out a request along with a permission letter. Your support in this would be greatly appreciated.
We are blessed to be able to organize a team to represent St Dominic’s Catholic College as we know our community is always keen to support our students. You are more than welcome to attend any sport we participate in.
If you have any further questions regarding sport at Saint Dominic’s, or would like to help out with any sport through management or coaching, please feel free to get in touch.
