Summer Sport Wrap

VOLLEYBALL

The 1st Volleyball team was looking for continual improvement throughout the summer season and even though a sixth place finish was not the result they aimed for, the future looks bright. Strong numbers across all teams from Year 7 all the way up to the seniors was pleasing to see. A highlight of the season was the Middle A team pushing an undefeated Aquinas team to four sets and only the game time expiring stopping it from going into a fifth.

Congratulations to the Years 11/12 and 7/8 boy’s beach volleyball team which claimed silver medals in the Term 1 Volleyball WA Beach Volleyball High School’s Cup.

WATER POLO

After a slow start to the season, a new 1st coach brought new life to their season, and the positive results started to show, with the 1st team finishing in third place. This is the highest place Trinity has finished in several years. A pleasing characteristic of the 1st team was their ability to keep fighting in every match, no matter what the score was. Whilst the Middle School teams did not achieve the results they were hoping for, very strong numbers point to a promising future of water polo at Trinity.

CRICKET

Hopes were high for the 1st team going into the summer holiday break, with the team evenly poised at three wins, three losses. A massive win over one of the Darlot Cup favourites, Wesley, in the first round of 2022 set the season up for the boys. However, they were unable to hold this form for the remainder of the season and finished in sixth spot. Well done to the Year 7A team who finished undefeated for the season.

BASKETBALL

The 1st Basketball team was always in the mix for the Blackwood Cup; however, a high standard of basketball throughout the PSA schools meant that a fourth position finish was a good achievement for the season. The number of students playing basketball at Trinity is amazing to see and has led to some pleasing results throughout the year groups. Well done to the 8A team for finishing undefeated for the season.

TENNIS

The competition was even at the halfway mark of the season, with Trinity in the mix for the W R Corr Cup. Whilst they were close in a lot of their fixtures, we were unable to gain the wins required in the second half and finished in a respectable fourth position. This was a very pleasing result considering the young age of the squad.

ROWING

The Trinity rowing community continue to build on their strong winning culture and, once again, finished as winners of the Hamer Cup at the annual Head of the River. This is a just reward for all the hard work that all the students put into every training session and regatta. The Hamer Cup is the ultimate team trophy in rowing and wouldn’t be possible without the efforts of all the crews from every year group.
