NSWCCC Cricket - Berg Shield

On Wednesday 26 February our Berg shield team left Corpus at 5am and traveled up to the Central coast for the Berg Shield finals. 

We lost our first semi final to St Greg’s off the second last ball of the game. We then went down to last year’s champions Woodlawn College to finish 4th in the State! This is a massive result for Corpus being the 4th best Catholic Schools team in the state. 

A big shout out to Mr Kurt Field for driving the bus and Mr Leon Hancock for coaching the team.

Important Documents

On the Compass Newsfeed you will find the following two documents: 

1. 2025 Sporting opportunities document. There are many sporting opportunities students are able to get involved in in 2025. Students can now see the “2025 Sporting opportunities” document with all of the sports available to trial for as well as the sign up sheet for the majority of the teams (parents/caregivers can't sign up to trial for a team on behalf of their child). This has been posted to students' compass.
   
   There are a few sports that I do not have the link for yet (these are teams where students need to apply to trial through the Wollongong Diocese). Once I receive these links I will be updating the document so please keep checking it for updates. 
   
   
2. Pinned on the Compass page is the 2025 Sports Flyer. This document is an overview of the 2025 sporting opportunities document. The flyer contains the following information: 

• Diocesan Sports 
• Individual Pathway Sport  
• External School entered competitions 
• How to register to trial for a Corpus team
• Updated Elite Sportsperson Policy

This will be your first point of call for any information about sport at Corpus. If you have any other questions please contact myself via: hawkesbyk01@dow.cathlic.edu.au
