CSSA Zone and State Athletics Carnivals 2009


Date Posted: 08-Sep-2009

Beautiful weather greeted Covenant’s athlete’s at both the CSSA North Metropolitan Zone Athletics Carnival and the CSSA State Carnival. In these beautiful conditions, our athletes were able to produce some wonderful performances.

One of the highlights of any carnival are the relays and at the zone carnival this was again the case. It’s always great to see students/competitors pull together in a team environment to perform at a high level and to have 4 teams come first and others who placed second or third.

In individual events, Covenant also excelled and this resulted in us having our largest number of students (31 in total) qualifying for the CSSA State Carnival. In fact, we had students qualify to compete in every different discipline across the different age groups. Covenant also had 2 Zone age champions – Luke Curnow in the 17yrs Boys and Kingsley Poon in the 12yrs Boys.

Congratulations to both boys for producing such consistent performances.

At the CSSA State Carnival, each of the relay teams continued their dominance, with the 15 yrs girls, 16 years boys and 17 years boys each winning their respective races. Our individuals also participated at a high level with a number of students producing personal bests, some finishing in the top 5 and 6 students qualifying for the Combined Independent Schools Carnival later in September (see student names before).

One of the really encouraging things at both these carnivals was the way that our students of different ages all supported and encouraged one another throughout both carnivals.

We also want to express our thanks to Lynette Thornton, Anita Mackay and Michael Sheehan who volunteered to help out at each of these carnivals. Your help was greatly appreciated.
