College Sport
Around the Grounds
In the latest edition of our school sports newsletter, we recap an eventful week marked by a spirited quest for excellence. Amidst this the focus was directed towards the NSWCCC Netball School Based Competition, where our talented athletes showcased their prowess on the Netball court, embodying the spirit of teamwork and determination. Additionally, the week saw the greens come alive with the MISA Golf Championship, where our golfers displayed their precision and skill, adding an extra layer of excitement to our sports calendar. We also saw round 4 of MISA get underway with only one round left in week 6 before semi finals. Stay tuned for more updates and inspiring achievements from our dedicated students in the realm of sports!
Our CCC Netball Team
This year we entered an Open Team into the Championship Division for the CCC Netball Carnival. Well done to the girls who won three games in their pool against McCarthy College, Tamworth, Marist Sisters’ College, Woolwich and Monte Sant’ Angelo Mercy College in North Sydney. Sadly, we were extremely disappointed walking away with a loss (by 3) for our final game of the day against St John Paul College, Coffs Harbour, however, this is just a testament to the passion that was alive throughout the entirety of the day. This team is evidence that the netball culture at Mount Carmel is alive and thriving. Watch this space next year because after this team tackles Dio, Marist and MISA in 2024 they will be unstoppable. Well done girls!

SPORT | RESULT | MVP | Short Report |
Softball 10-12 Girls Mr Withnall |
VS STP Loss 9-2 |
Leira Hornilla |
A valiant effort once again thwarted by silly, costly errors and some terrific fielding by our opponents. We batted well but it went against us when we couldn't get it over the infield. Our fielding effort was not quite up to snuff either, but we continue to strive for improvement. Our MVP, Leira, was unfortunately subbed off when she was hit by a powerful blow. In the chaos, though, we did manage to hold up runners in scoring positions. As always, the positivity and enthusiasm from the girls is unrivalled. |
Netball 7-8 Girls Ms Jefferys |
VS MAG Loss 23-6 |
Miyah Meurant | The girls started out strong showing potential in the first quarter in being the better team. However did not come through with a win this week. The opposing side getting ahead with being opportunistic. |
Indoor Cricket 10-12 Boys Mr O’Connell |
VS JTCC Loss 104-51 |
Zane Brooke |
The boys played to the best of their ability against a strong JTCC team. Only fielding 7 players made it difficult to create a strong performance. Jake Darr and Joshua Dennis both put in gargantuan batting performances and Abdul Khan displayed illustrious fielding prowess. Nevertheless the most outstanding performance of the match must go to the one and only Zane Brooks who was one ball away from a distinguished hatrick in the dying moments of the match. A semi finals berth for MCCC looks imminent as the season comes down to the wire. Let’s hope for a good result next week to confirm that semi final position. |
Soccer 7-9 Girls Miss Heath |
VS THAC Win 1-0 |
Charlie Yule | There were plenty of skills and passing patterns on show which lead to another win (1-0). This places the girls in a fantastic position for finals. |
Soccer 7-8 Boys Mr King |
VS THAC Loss 3-2 |
Shou Ye | The boys were unfortunate to go down 3-2 in what was a game of very mixed emotions. After conceding a goal early off a free kick and some sloppy defending, the boys managed to claw their way back and level the score with a nicely timed finish by Isaiah Nakasenh. Thomas Hassall’s main striker caused many problems for our defence with his blistering pace and composure in front of goal. From 3-1 down with twelve minutes remaining the boys looked in trouble, yet in true MCCC fighting spirit, the team lifted with a number of raids into the box thanks to Tadhg Healy and Vincent Brancati. Debutant Tennyson King reduced the deficit with a banger from thirty yards, yet despite many attempts on goal the boys just couldn’t find the equaliser. A special mention to Shou Ye for best on field performance who gave everything in what was a very physical encounter. |
Soccer 9-10 Boys Mr Teuma |
VS THAC Win 4-2 |
Riley Keith | Despite an early goal for MCCC, it was a lackluster start to the game. With the opposition not taking the game seriously, the boys were given full warning not to take on the game easy. After a disappointing effort in the first half, the second half was a vast improvement and credit to the team for turning their effort levels around to achieve a 4-2 win. There were plenty more opportunities to put a few more goals away, but our shots went straight into the goalkeepers arms. A good result in the end puts us steady into the finals in a few weeks. |
AFL 10-12 Boys Mr Hunty |
VS MAG Loss 21-12 |
DeAngelo Finau |
The boys put in a valiant effort as they battled in a heavily contested match between Magdalene. The half time score showed the tight nature of the match with a 14-12 scoreline. Unfortunately we struggled in the second half failing to score as we committed numbers forward leaving our defence exposed. Onto next week! |
