This Saturday our sporting community travel to Brisbane State High School

It was a busy weekend last Saturday at Tennyson when Terrace hosted Nudgee College in a plethora of fixtures across the fields.

FOOTBALL

The program was very successful, winning 21 games – losing 14 and drawing 6 matches.

Unfortunately, the 1st XI suffered a 0 – 4 defeat – allowing three quick goals at the final stages of the second half.

TENNIS

The Tennis program was affected by several washouts that resulted in a significantly reduced program – however of the eleven fixtures, Terrace were successful in nine of the eleven, dropping only two fixtures.

Special note was the performances of the 1st IV and 2nd IV that won 8-0 and 6-0 respectively – an amazing clean sweep of these two highly competitive games.

This Saturday our sporting community travel to Brisbane State High School. The BSHS Football program is significantly bigger than the BSHS Rugby program, so more teams will be accommodated by our opposition. However, there will still be some need for supplementary games at Tennyson, Nudgee, Churchie and Brisbane Grammar.

Please check your schedules accurately – on the school app, and be ready to play by arriving 45 minutes before your start time to warm up.

CROSS COUNTRY

Well done to the boys that travelled to TSS last Friday to win in the first meet of the season.

The Open and U16 age levels shone through with strong performances. The remaining age levels were strong but need to work a little harder – the runners coming in as the 4th 5th and 6th runners for Terrace need to be at least in the top 30 – every place counts and it is important to work as a team in hunting the runners from other schools down.

This Friday is the BGS / GT Carnival at Northgate. Goals for the day will be set by Coach Hughes but if all Terrace runners work together – pace each other and if the top six runners per age level finish in the top 30, then the team will go a long way to success at this meet and the Championships on 31 May.
