1 26 March 2015 I Wet Weather Line Head of Sport and Activities Mr Dave Capra ATC School Cricket Season This weekend is the final round of the ATC school cricket season and it has without doubt been a very successful start to this traditionally very popular and strong sport at the College. I have been very impressed with the quality of the cricket that the bosy have played and by the huge improvement that each team and the individuals boys in each team have shown throughout the season. With all teams playing as many as 7 or 8 games this season it has been wonderful to see the commitment that the boys have had to their teams and their school and with the huge amount of enjoyment that the boys have experienced. Cricket is without doubt a mentally and physically tough sport. With games lasting many hours and boys experiencing the highs and lows of the reality of cricket, I have been really proud to witness the sportsmanship that our ATC students have demonstrated. Humility during success and resilience when disappointed are two of the life lessons that the great sports of cricket teaches all of us and I hope that lessons learnt in cricket will transfer to other aspects of our lives. Our ATC Cricket Coordinator Mr Brett Henschell left on Sunday morning for the Masters Cricket Tournament in South Africa to coach and play with the Brookfield Brumbies, in his absence I would like to acknowledge the huge amount of work that he has put into our cricket program in 2014/2015. He has brought a huge amount of passion, knowledge and professionalism to the College and I know our boys have reaped the rewards of this. Our final round this year is against Gregory Terrace, timetable for which is below. I would like to encourage parents and boys who in passing either ATC hoem venues or Tennyson Playing Fields might have a few minutes to watch a few overs and support our ATC Irish Warriors! Tennis Open Championships This weekend we have our inaugural ATC Tennis Open Championships which are being played on Sunday 29 March at Ambiwerra Sports Centre, Rolfe St, Corinda from 12.00pm to 5.00pm. Our tennis players have been training hard in preparation for this and we are looking forward to seeing the boys in action on Sunday. Boys will play matches in pools against a number of different bosy from different year levels and will then play repechage finals. Our tennis parents have organised a BBQ for supporters come along and enjoy a very social afternoon of quality tennis. ATC Australian Football Guernsey Presentation This Friday evening is our presentation evening, beginning at 5.00pm with a BBQ and bar on the ovals and followed by presentation of Guernseys in the hall by Lions Assistant Coach and Brownlow Medallist, Shane Woewodin! Warriors Go Brach! Dave Capra ATC SKI TRIP In January 2016 we will be taking a group of Year 8 and 9 students (current Yr 7 and 8) students to Japan for 9 days to stay on the slopes at Hakuba and ski Goryu, Hakuba 47 and Happo One. ATC SKI TRIP Information Evening will be held in on Tuesday 31 March in the Chapel at 6.00pm for all interested parents and boys. *Please note we are moving the trip from NZ to Japan as the snow is much more reliable, the skiing better and the cost with an extra day of skiing is the same as NZ.

2 Athletic Performance Coordinator Mr Luke Donatini The subject of one sport athletes has interested me for many years. A young child will usually find themselves involved in a sport (mostly the parent s decision of the sport) for one reason or another mum played it, dad played it, a brother or sister plays the sport, we think he/she would be good at that sport. This is all fine and great, young children being active and involved whilst experiencing new challenges. The area that I am mostly concerned about is that when that one chosen sport is all consuming and the child knows nothing or little else. I am aware of the principles of practice and the hours that are needed to be good (or great ) at a skill set/sport. However, is early specialization and a one sport policy the answer to later success within a chosen sport? This is very much a debatable subject and one with many opinions, which is absolutely fine. However, let s consider some the following potential outcomes of early specialization for argument sake: Potentially a very successful young athlete. Potentially achieving representative status at an early age. Potentially increased level of stress to keep performing at a high level. Potentially the onset of early injury (overuse injuries in a growing and developing body) Potentially increased lack of enjoyment as the child grows older. Potentially greater rate of drop out of the sport. Potentially an attitudinal change of view of the chosen sport (and sport in general). Reading recently a Facebook Blog by Loren Seagrave (a highly respected American Track & Field Coach and Exercise Physiologist) on this subject, Seagraves puts out an opinion which I personally concur with. Rather than paraphrasing the blog, below is what he affirms on this subject: All the research points to early specialization in one sport leads to blunted development of the athlete and a lower level of performance achieved. (Loren Seagrave). Further to this... In my time as a multi-sport coach and AD at various sized schools, I ve often heard kids who are dropping one sport in order to focus on another. My response to all of those kids is simple. When college coaches speak to high school coaches, one of the first questions often asked is, What other sports does he/she play? I can remember college football coaches coming to high school basketball games to see our kids play, and there are often college coaches at high school track meets watching kids compete. Every now and then I hear the argument that college coaches prefer kids to spend all their time preparing for one sport. I agree that there are probably some coaches like that, but they are in the LARGE minority. More so than having acute, specialized, sport-specific knowledge, college coaches are interested in other aspects of high school athletes: How does he/she move? How does he/she think? How does he/she work with teammates? How does he/she deal with adversity? (this is much easier to witness in a sport in which the athlete is not being recruited!) How does the athlete COMPETE? Think about it from a coaches perspective: What football coach wouldn t want a kid to have the balance that wrestling teachers? Or the change in direction that basketball teachers? Or the hand-eye coordination that baseball teaches? Or the competitive drive that track teaches? What hockey coach wouldn t want that same hand-eye coordination from baseball? Or endurance from cross country or soccer? Or agility to explode from track? What volleyball coach wouldn t want the increased communication skills that basketball teaches? Or that same explosion learned from track? That endurance can come from soccer, cross country, swimming or track. Hand/eye coordination? Not only from baseball or softball, but also from tennis, basketball, volleyball and hockey. The ability to balance that was mentioned for wrestlers?

3 Athletic Performance Coordinator Mr Luke Donatini Change of direction? Basketball, soccer, tennis, softball, volleyball and football. The examples are non-stop. Outside of learning those skills and attributes across sport lines, how about being able to play for fun? (Loren Seagrave One Sport Athletes in High School Sports Stuff) Basically, in a nut shell, for me it s simple. Allowing our young athletes to participate in multiple and varied sports will give them the necessary ammunition to be successful in their one chosen sport later on in life when they will specialization is necessitated. In my opinion, specialization too early can stifle the greater development of the athlete. It may very will cause them to dislike their chosen sport which often leads to them opting out. Cross Country Racing this Friday Our first invitational meet will be an EREA Cross Country Meet at Nudgee College this Friday 27 March. We wish all the ATC XC Warriors competing this Friday every success as they take on Nudgee College, St Patrick s College and St Laurence s College.

4 Athletic Performance Coordinator Mr Luke Donatini Indoor Cricket News Season Wrap Up! Well what a great season of Indoor Cricket we had in From where I stood each week, I could not help but notice the high level of energy and enjoyment displayed by the boys. Thank you to Sam Hassett (Year 4 Indoor Cricket Coordinator) and Siobhan Brophy (2014 Coordinator) for their effort and assistance in the running of the 2015 season. It would not have run so smoothly each and every week without their guidance and support. I would like to acknowledge the tremendous work of our coaching staff. This season of Indoor Cricket would not have been possible if it was not for the wonderful work of our coaching/teaching staff involved each week at Indoor Cricket training and games. Many thanks to David Gardiner, Conor Finn, Mark Watson, Elizabeth Walsh, Rebecca Smout, Gwenda Burton, Alex Benstead and Melissa Trowell for their weekly commitment. It would be remiss of me if I did not recognize the students who took part in the 2015 season, The players, they all really did get into it and as a result we sawyear 5/6 Indoor Cricket Round Team & Man of the Match ATC Giants ATC Mustangs ATC Lions ATC Cheetahs 1 Andreas Kits Alex Griffiths Nick Craven/Ben Nathan Treasure McCauley 2 Ethan Yem Alex Griffiths Jye Duncan-Cope Nathan Treasure 3 Jamiyah Fawauandi Thomas Pham Jye Duncan-Cope Callum Hickey 4 Darcy Molloy/Ethan Yem 5 Joseph Cannon /Ethan Yem Round Round Man of the Match Team 1 Team 2 1 ATC Dragons Sean Bennett ATC Tigers Toby Rutch 2 ATC Eagles Rory Smith ATC Vipers Peter Ullman 3 ATC Jnr Giants Mitchell Ramm ATC Gladiators Sean Bennett 4 ATC Bears Peter Ullman/Sean Bennett ATC Jnr Wolves Toby Rutch 5 ATC Storm Tiago Ganhao ATC Hurricanes Toby Rutch Thomas Pham Lucas Roach Atticus Solomon Thomas Pham Sam Maguire Nathan Treasure Team & Man of the Match ATC Chiefs ATC Cobras ATC Wolves ATC Grizzlies 1 Gabe Lentz Daniel Gleeson Allan Currie Lachlan McNamara 2 Callum Conole Joseph Williams Allan Currie Lachlan McNamara 3 Harry Hooper Ryan Manikot James Freeland Brady Wilson (Yr 4) 4 Harry Hooper Mackenzie Rabbitt James Freeland Seamus Morley 5 Ethan Tones Mackenzie Rabbitt Zach Smith Fraser Murray / Lachlan McNamara

6 Debating News Mrs Lisa Holohan Middle Years Humanities Coordinator Congratulations to all Debating Teams who competed in our first Round last Wednesday night at School. St. Aidan s Anglican Girls The topic of our first debate was That we should ban toys designed for (and marketed to) only one gender. All three teams prepared thoroughly for their debates and not only worked well as individual teams but as a club were a powerful group of skill, insight and knowledge. A special thank you to our Year 8 students who worked alongside the Year 7 Team to develop their confidence and arguments for this first round. This year we have a courageous Year 7 Team and two Year 8 teams, competing in the Year 8 Queensland Debating Union competition Team 8.1 had a narrow defeat by only two points. Team members included first speaker Noah Ryan, second speaker John Mooney, third speaker Ben Norton and reserve/researcher Tom North. The boys debated against Kenmore State High School. The students presented an intelligent and robust argument with a model that focused on, toys should be designed by theme rather than function or gender stereotypes. Team 8.2 were victorious in their debate and demonstrated extraordinary sportsmanship for the opposition, St Peter s Lutheran. Team members included first speaker Xavier Knight, second speaker Lachlan A-Khavari, third speaker Patrick Robinson and reserve/researcher Lochlan Rutch. The boys learnt much about rebuttals and working together as a team, they spoke with great confidence and clarity arguing for the topic. Team 8.3 were also triumphant in their debate against Woodcrest State College. Team members included first speaker Jack Brouwer, second speaker Chris Kiel-Chisholm, third speaker Tom Perissinotto and reserve/researchers Leon Taylor and Thomas Johnson. The boys presented a very entertaining debate and engaged the adjudicator and audience through many humorous arguments against the topic. There model focused on the economic and social impacts banning gender specific toys would have to society as a whole. Our next debate is Term 2 Week 2 Wednesday April 29. The topic is That we should ban reality television shows which are focused on children. (eg, Dance moms, Junior master chef, here comes Boo Boo). Feel free to come along and support the teams ATC Anglers Mr David Sullivan The river has been fishing well these last few weeks with many different species of fish being caught by boys at lunchtime and during ATC Fishing Club meets. The most notable of these was a Threadfin Salmon caught by Harper Mackie on a prawn that measured 60cm. He was very excited with his catch, as was Mr Sullivan who nearly jumped into the river to make sure that the fish was landed. Sam King Koi also caught two small Mulloway or Jew fish off the schools pontoon that were a pleasant yet unexpected surprise. It has been wonderful to see lots of new faces showing an interest in fishing at ATC and getting involved when the opportunity presents itself.

9 Term 2 Sports Cross Country currently underway Training will be held on 3 mornings per week with boys encouraged to attend 2 sessions and a 3rd if they are selected into the advanced squad. Races will be mainly held on Saturday and Sundays with the occasional Friday. Cross Country is a great sport for all, regardless of whether boys wish to run at a representative level or to build fitness for other sports. We would love to see our soccer, rugby, basketball and AFL players attending weekly sessions for fitness and running at occasional meets to track progress and to set and achieve personal performance goals. Our first official race is the ATC Interhouse Cross Country Championships which will be held at our AFL Fields at Chelmer on Friday 24 April, followed by the QLD Athletics All Schools Cross Country Championships which are held during the afternoon on Saturday 2 May.

Games will mostly be played in the morning, both home and away. Tennis commenced Monday 2 March The tennis program at ATC is geared at boys who have previously has lessons or have played competitive tennis previously. Whilst we would love to offer beginner classes, the court space and intensive coaching required makes this impracticable.
