It has been over 10 years since Marsden was part of the grade sport competition and in 2012 we are back!
After consultation with students, parents and the P&C, Mr King, Mr Lustica and Ms Lofts worked hard on developing a proposal to present to the Zone sports committee to allow Marsden to join the competition in 2012.
Beginning next year, Marsden will enter teams into the Senior competition on Tuesday afternoons. Year 10 students will have priority selection in teams, followed by Year 11 and 12 students who have an option of playing if selected. It is possible that expansion into younger year groups may occur in future years, however this will be decided upon after the evaluation of next years competition.
Sports available for 2012 will be announced after the Zone AGM decides the make up of the competition on the 25th November. Once announced, team trials will be held.
All students aspiring to represent Marsden in this competition will be expected to uphold the values and traditions of Marsden High School, display a commitment to their schooling and will be required to attend regular training sessions. Students will be selected on these characteristics as well as ability.
A grade sport fee will be required each term to cover the costs associated with transport. Currently, this is estimated at $50 and may change based on the number of teams entered into the competition.
