Summer Sports

Touch

Our Year 7s coached by Jolene Casey won the development grade of the local competition, and Year 8 TOA coached by Dean Moeahu lost a close final 4-5 to Tahuna. 

At the South Island Secondary School Champs, our Senior A team drew with Otago Boys' and won the rest of their games to qualify first from their pool. They had a great victory over St Bede's in the semi-final, and then went down to Christchurch Boys' in the final. A great effort by the boys and the management team.

Maadi Cup

We had 15 boys head North to Lake Karapiro for the Maadi Cup. Jack Pearson, the novice double of Matt O’Meara and Ollie Hamilton, and our Under 15 quad (Angus Loe, Jarn Hollows, Matt O’Meara, Ollie Hamilton plus cox Adam Rhodes) all qualified for the A finals. 

The U17 Double of Jack Pearson and Mark Smith, the U17 quad ( Jack Pearson, Mark Smith, Zach Cleaver-Donovan, Fynn Allison, and cox Fergus Parks), and U18 Novice coxed quad of Angus Loe, Jarn Hollows, Matt O’Meara, Ollie Hamilton plus cox Adam Rhodes all won their B finals.

Cricket

Our  1st XI played OBHS 1st in the Semi-Final of the Gillete Cup Qualifiers at Brooklands Park. JMC batted superbly scoring 246/8 (Toby Dean 58*, Henry Scott 43). OBHS batted methodically and got the runs with 11 overs to spare 247/3 (Henry Scott 2/65). A great effort to be in the Top 4 in Otago/Southland. Well done to Hugo Cochrane who joined the 50 club during the season.

The Year 9/10 Cricket team had a great victory in Invercargill over Southland Boy's High School, with Liam Barron starring with the bat in the Semi-Final of the NZ Cup. The boys then beat OBHS to qualify for the national event in Palmerston North.  

They had a close loss to Napier Boys' by 2 runs, and then had a great finish for the Nationals with a very solid win against Tauranga Boys'. 

Multisport

Grayson Westgate won the U19 South Island triathlon and Matheson Colquhoun won the U19 South Island duathlon. Both boys teamed up with a boy from OBHS to claim bronze in the school section of Challenge Wanaka.
