Otago Secondary Schools Cross Country Series

The Otago Secondary Schools Cross Country series start with the Logan

Park road race on Tuesday 13 th May. Conditions were not great but we

had 22 keen runners race in this first event. All runners gained pleasing

results with Eva McLean winning the U15 girls race and also taking out

the fastest time. We look forward to the next race in this series which is

the Caversham Relays being held at Kettle Park on Wednesday 21 st May

starting at 1.45pm.

School Sport vs Outside of School Sport

Students who sign up and play for school sports teams often find

themselves juggling multiple commitments, especially if they are also

involved in outside-of-school sports. However, some external sports

organizations have strict rules, such as not allowing athletes to participate

in other activities for a week before a major competition. This can create

a challenge for students who are passionate about both their school team

and their outside sport. The restrictions often stem from the desire to

ensure athletes are fully rested and focused, but it can limit the students'

ability to engage in other activities or enjoy a well-rounded experience.

Balancing these commitments can be difficult, especially when each team

has its own set of expectations and time constraints

We are interested in what you are doing. If you are competing in sports
