Once again football numbers are high and we are fielding 4 senior teams and two junior (under 15) teams in the College Sport Wellington competition. The season commenced on Saturday April 24th and the weekly draw is on the College Sport Wellington website as well as the football noticeboard next to the school canteen.

Managers and Coaches of this year's teams are:

  • First XI- Mr Bailey (manager) and Ben Keat (coach)
  • Second XI- Mr McGeechan (coach) and Mr Woodwark (manager)
  • Third XI- Mr Hoeksma (manager/coach) and Mr Jegousse (assistant manager/coach) parent helper tbc
  • Fourth XI- Mr Gunatunga (manager and coach) Parent helper tbc

Junior A (15th grade)- Dean Waddington (coach) plus Mrs Smith (manager)

  • Junior B (15th grade) –Alex Austin (coach) plus Mr Calitz (manager)

All the above teams play on Saturday- 15th grade kick off usually at 9:00, Senior First XI 11:00am and others can vary 11:00am, 1:00pm or 2:30pm.

The Year 7 and 8 teams have been chosen and the first team have played around four school fixtures. Games for the second and third teams have also taken place and were successful exchanges with HIBS winning all of their games!

The final football run-out will be a Hutt Valley tournament scheduled for 14th September.

  • Year 7 and 8 A team- Trevor Lawrence (coach/manager senior student helper tbc)
  • Year 7 and 8 B and C teams – Cath Nota with senior students

So there is still plenty to play for in what has been another exciting season. Please remember that teams can and will change as the season progresses. If you have not made the team you hoped for then our advice is to play and train your hardest for the team you are put into. If we have missed you at the trials we will find you during the season if you are playing and training well.

Remember the HIBS football club motto:

“you can never get enough football”
