Well done to all girls who represented St Peters last Friday on the Ekka Holiday long weekend. We saw great results in all the Winter Fixture Sports and our Rowers continued to work on their speed at the second Regatta of the season.
We are now in the second half of the seasons and it is extremely important that attendance to training and games remains high and any absence is communicated early with both coach and coordinator. So far, the 2020 season has demonstrated good team camaraderie and this needs to continue. It is no coincidence that those teams who have consistent attendance to training and games are the teams showing the greatest improvement.
Great news, the QGSSSA Association is now allowing spectators to watch all Winter Fixtures.
St Peters are allowing one spectator per player in each venue, it is important to carefully read the COVID-19 Site Plans, these can be found attached to the draw on the St Peters App.
Good luck to all girls participating in St Peters Sport this Saturday.

Round 5 Wrap v St Margaret’s
Round 5 was a split round against St Margaret’s with games being played on Tuesday afternoon and Friday morning of the long weekend. It was an awesome round with all games competitive but played in great spirits with St Peters winning 13 from the 16 games. It was so pleasing to see great improvement across all teams with special mention to our 8A, 8B, 8C, 10B, Senior C and Opens teams who are all undefeated at this stage of the season - well done girls.
We look forward to watching our teams compete this Saturday against the Netball powerhouse of Moreton Bay College with our 9C team enjoying a week off. All games take place on Harts Road Courts, please remember to read carefully the UPDATED COVID-19 Site Plan for our Harts Road Courts. This is our second last home game of the season so let’s make it a great one. Good luck girls.

Round 5 Wrap v St Margaret’s
Last weekend our Juniors and Opens had successful fixtures against St Margaret’s, with our Seniors having a bye. Juniors won 4 nil with Astro commenting that it could have been a lot more with some more poise in attack. The Juniors have won two games in a row but come up against stronger opposition this week in Moreton Bay College. Opens eventually won their game 4 -3 after giving all spectators a heart attack. Skill wise we were the stronger outfit but some poor strategy in attack led to some successful counterattacks from St Margaret’s. Special shout outs to Lauren H’s game winner in the final two minutes of the game as well as Jane’s epic tomahawk from an impossible angle.

Round 5 Wrap v St Margaret’s
Round 5 up against St Margaret's was successful in many ways with the Opens, Senior A and Junior B teams taking away wins. The Junior C team continued to develop their game skills and the Senior B and Junior A teams worked through long rallies to get some games under their belts. It was great to see the girls supporting one another and building each other up. Well done to all players for their efforts on the weekend! Bring on Round 6!
BSRA ROWING
Coordinator: Mr Peter Hicks – p.hicks@stpeters.qld.edu.au
