Cricket

The 2nd half of the 2017 Cricket Season has started strongly with our Pre-Season Training Sessions at Lincoln supported by nearly 90 boys. This is a great way to get back into the season and will be followed up with outdoor sessions leading into the beginning of the season.

Up Coming Training – Optional but Highly Recommended

These sessions have been designed to help our players come up to speed and be ready for the rigours of  competition cricket.  The focus of these training sessions will be on skill development.

Australia Tour

27 cricket players left on Thursday for a 10 day tour of Sydney, where they will play six games of cricket against Sydney Colleges, I am sure they will relish the grass wickets and the fine weather for a good hit out before our season starts.

The Athlete’s Foot – Riccarton Mall

We are very very grateful for the Shoe Clinic in Riccarton Mall for their continued support for Sport in the College. Every time a St Bede's College family or staff buy a pair of shoes they donate money towards sports equipment for the College. Summer is coming so if you need a pair of shoes please pop down to Riccarton Mall and support the Shoe Clinic and St Bede's College.
