Here at STCC we take part in various tournaments/gala days around southeast Queensland throughout the year.  

Key Dates: 

Please note that all dates are subject to change, this calendar is to advise of expected dates.

Cost:

Students will be charged for the tournaments that they participate in.
The cost of each tournament will fluctuate depending on transport costs, fees and incidentals.
We are hoping to cap a tournament at $50 per student. However, we are quoting currently.

Training: 
Training will be on each Monday & Wednesday from 2.30-4.00pm on the College Oval in the 3 weeks before a tournament. Please see the above calendar.

Tournament Structure:
Depending on event; most events will run a pool stage of 3 games before semis and finals.

Transport: 

Students will be provided with transport to and from each tournament.
Please be aware, that due to the distances being covered, there will be some very early starts and very late finishes.
Specific details about transport will be given to the players directly from their coaches when all is finalised.

Uniform Requirements:
All students will need to purchase the below items.

·       Multi-sport shorts and socks (for training & games) - Once your child has collected these items from the Sport Shack it will be added to your school fees. 

·       Boots 

·       Mouthguard

·       Head Gear + other protective clothing 

·       STCC multi-sport shirt (free of charge)

All students will be provided with a Rugby Jersey which is loaned to them for the tournament.
Students are expect to carry their own water bottle and sunscreen at both training and tournaments.

Assumed Risk:
By giving your child permission, you acknowledge that this is a contact sport, and you are aware that there is a risk of injuries and concussion. You also acknowledge that you are responsible for sourcing a mouthguard for your child.

Trials Information

Student Eligibility for Selection

·      If a student who is not present at the trial is being considered for selection, all students and officials must be advised before the commencement of the trial.  The student must have an approved application for exemption via Mr Linthorne to be considered for selection.

Student Withdrawal

·      A player may be 'dropped' from a team for a suitable reason:

o   conduct that is detrimental to the team or College

o   repeated absences from training

o   lack of communication/respect for coaching staff

o   disruptive behaviour

o   academic disengagement

·     If a student chooses to withdraw on their own terms, both the student and parent need to inform both coach and rugby coordinator in writing 14 days before a tournament.  

- Coaching staff must agree with this withdrawal, as a player withdrawal may impact the entire team’s inclusion in the tournament. If the withdrawal is not acceptable - we refer to the College sport agreement signed during parent permissions that is expected to be honoured.  ​
