Students Representing the ACT
The ACT Schools Golf Team has been selected for the National Championships. The team will travel to the Toowoomba, QLD, to compete in the School Sport Australia Golf Championships from the 24 - 30th August. This is an annual event that attracts considerable talent and potential champions of the future. This year the ACT team will consist of six boys and six girls who are listed below:
Jessica McManus(c) (Lake Tuggeranong) James Correll(c) (Marist College)
Eleanor Bance (Burgmann School) Harry Bolton (Canberra Grammar)
Mandy Ho (Girls Grammar) Joshua Hunter (Erindale College)
Amber Thornton (Mary Mackillop College) Kris Cole (Mary Mackillop College)
Madeleine Hunter (Erindale College) Jakub Gancarz (Daramalan College)
Chloe Thornton (Trinity College) Josh Armstrong (Burgmann School)
The students will be playing 36 holes of stroke followed by three days of match play against each of the states. This competition has seen past champions such as Adam Scott and Jason Day and can be a stepping stone to bigger and brighter things for the ACT team. Josh Armstrong from Burgmann Anglican School will be defending the prestigious tournament title he won last year. We wish them all the best for the championships.
