Upcoming Eastern Taipans District School Sport Trials (10-12 years Only)

If you wish to nominate your child in a particular sport, please email Miss Currie (scurr72@eq.edu.au) at least 3 weeks prior to the trial date (wherever possible). Each school is only allowed to send 2 students to trial. Only students displaying quality skill levels will be sent to trial. Most team selections pick one team which covers a 10-12yr age group bracket. There are not individual teams for each age group.

Gala Day Trials for Year 5 and 6 students will be held at school on 14^th February from 12pm-3pm. All students wishing to try out for a team will sign up during HPE lessons in Week 2. Any student who is not selected to represent a Gala Day Team will stay at school and participate in Intra-School Activities. I encourage all students to trial for a team in week 3. The sports on offer for Semester 1 are:

• Soccer - Boys and Girls

Students selected in teams, will travel off site on three occasions this Semester to play against students from other schools. To cover buses, first aid and venue hire, there will be a cost involved for this. Parents, please keep an eye out in your emails for permission and payment forms. These will be emailed out to parents of successful students, the week following trials.
