"Einstein’s Definition of Education: "is what remains after one has forgotten everything he learned in school."
This refers to the experiences, values, lessons learned and education outside the classroom - This is where sport has a critical role to play.
Welcome to the St Stithians Boys' College Sport
"All that matters in life, matters in sport"- Sebastian Coe- 2012
Since the formation of St Stithians College in 1953, sport has always played a significant role in the development of every student that comes to the school. Sport provides developmental challenges like no other learning domain and contributes to a truly holistic development experience for students, staff, and parents. St Stithians seeks to provide opportunities to engage everyone through a diverse, challenging, multi-sport experience at all ages across all abilities. Whether an aspiring Olympian or for a social and recreational purpose, we recognize the significant mental and physical benefits that come with regular play and competition. Equally, we recognize the development of fundamental behaviours and values that emerge by participating and competing in sport, that help young people achieve excellence regardless of where their path may take them beyond St Stithians. With this, we welcome you to Saints Sport.
Boys' College Sports Director Message
Change is currently blowing through the sports environment at the Boys' College. This speaks to us becoming more effective and efficient at what we do. Key to this, is communication with the multiple stakeholders who are interested in and passionate about sport. To this end we would like to extend a warm welcome to the BC Sports Website.
We look forward to this communication platform and your feedback so we may constantly reflect and improve on what we do.
Sport is an integral part of most boys' scholastic experience. The intention through this platform is to enhance the sporting experience of students, parents and staff.
Sports Prefect 2025 Message
Dear One & All
It is a great honour and privilege to introduce myself as the Head of Sport for St Stithians Boys College for 2025.
Sport is one of the most respected pillars of the college and something that is so important to me personally. I’m sure that anyone who has had an experience of playing any sport or even spectating on our beautiful grounds will agree that it is something to be proud of.
The atmosphere, support and especially the talent around the school over most weekends is something special. From the Hockey Astro to the Basketball courts, the Aquatic centre and playing fields it is hard to beat. With 14 sports to choose from there’s bound to be something for everyone to enjoy.
My vision for the year 2025 is to build a sense of pride within the college. As playing for a badge and being part of a team is what should drive us students to play hard and to want to be involved irrespective of what team you are in. While St Stithians recognizes that the drive to succeed is a key part of sports, we place a strong emphasis on sportsmanship, camaraderie and the joy of sport as that is what truly counts. With this in mind, I hope to encourage all my brothers in our college to enjoy and have fun in whatever sporting code they choose to be a part of.
Looking forward to a successful and great year ahead of sport
