GENERAL INFORMATION

There is a promotion and relegation system in place for all three of our carnival sports. The results of the school finishing in last place in Division 1 are compared directly with results of the team finishing in first place in Division 2. The promotion and relegation system is only applied if the aggregate results of the two relevant schools warrant a change. Our athletics event is overseen by officials from Athletics Victoria. The swimming event is overseen by officials from Swimming Victoria.
