Representative sport at a south coast level is predominantly at an all age level. This means that your child in year 7 would be competing for a spot in a team against a student in year 12. There are very few sports which are not all age and students will be notified of this throughout the year. Students will be responsible for listening and seeking information about representative sporting opportunities and this will be delivered through Monday assemblies
