Latest CAP Sport Update as at 5 May:
“At this stage the cancellation of representative school sport is in place until 30 June. There is NO national program and therefore NO state teams selected in 2020.
As RSSO’s we have been working on different pathways forward for the return of representative school sport. Ultimately, it will be the decision and advice from central office around the start back date and social distancing conditions required. I understand that questions from schools etc. have been around Track & Field especially.
It is our hope and wish that we will be able to continue with sports including T&F in semester 2 but again we will be directed as to the conditions. This will impact sports such as Track & Field who have large numbers attending a state championship.
We also understand that the process for any sport from school, district, region to state championships takes time (8 weeks approx.).
· CHSS Levy and Apparel orders received to date that have had the School Sport pathway altered (NO CAP trial due to COVID-19), CHSS will initiate the refund process. Offering students/parents/caregivers the opportunity to keep apparel ordered and paid for. PLEASE NOTE REFUND FORMS WILL BE EMAILED TO SCHOOL ADMIN STAFF AND IS THE ONLY OPTION TO ACTION REFUNDS. The monies held are CHSS funds until refund details are approved, received/processed.

Emerald Christian College Athletics Commitment Program
DUE TO COVID-19 THE 2020 ATHLETIC SEASON HAS BEEN CANCELLED.
Started in 2018 the Emerald Christian College Athletics Commitment Program was created to encourage Secondary Students wanting to improve on their athletic skills.
In 2019 the College extended the program to any student who was turning 10 or older (the start of Representative Sporting age).
The aim of the program is to encourage young athletes, who believe they have the potential and commitment, to make it to Emerald District Central Highland, Capricornia Region level or even State Titles.
To be part of this program the College requires a serious commitment to be made:
Expectations of participants are:
- Join Emerald Athletics (cost $150 per year, government assistance available to eligible Healthcare card holders) – this club has equipment, facilities, coaches, training and carnival opportunities.
- Attend Morning Fitness with Mr Furhmann on Friday mornings before school as much as possible.
- To uphold Emerald Christian College values, at all times when representing the program.
- Wear the appropriate uniform at representative events.
In return, to encourage and support this commitment the College offers:
- $50 voucher from Plaza Sports to go towards equipment required (given after 6 weeks Emerald Athletics attendance).
- Assistance in purchasing Emerald Athletics Club shirt with ECC embroidery – student’s price (purchased through the College) $20 – club price $30.
- Encouragement and support at Emerald Athletics Events – Mrs S is the Canteen Coordinator.
- Healthy breakfast provided after Morning Fitness by our wonderful Home Economics Department and volunteers.
- Support with Travel & Accommodation to attend events held outside of Emerald.
- Record of achievements supplied at the end of the year.
- Points towards Representative Sports Award tally for the year.
- Recognition at Representative Awards Night and in the running to become the Emerald Christian College Athletics Commitment Program Athlete of the year.
If you and your young athlete would like to step up and take on this offer please contact Mrs S on the form below.
