After a successful competition in 2012 with a relatively small team, we are looking to expand our representation at the NSW Interschools Snowsports championships this year, 10–13 July 2013 at Thredbo.

Last year’s team of 22 boys managed the impressive result of having 13 skiers and boarders qualifying for the State Finals and we are hoping to build on that result in this year’s competition. We are one of the only Newington College teams that include representatives from all three campuses competing for the one team.

The competition this year is a four day competition involving several disciplines in both skiing and snowboarding across all ages and skill levels. The competitors go down to the snow with their families and report for their respective races each morning in the Newington colours. Snowsports is a great social get-together involving the parents and boys and really it cements that famous Black and White spirit!

Our main goal this year is representation, so if your son(s) are interested in competing under the Newington banner this year in Thredbo, no matter the age or skill level, we would be happy to welcome them to the team!

To register your sons’ interest in the competition please contact the MIC of Snowsports, Mr Justin Verco

I look forward to seeing you on the slopes!
