As LJBC enters term 3 our Athletics Program is in full swing to prepare for our Inter House Carnivals coming up soon in week 5 but also for ACC Inter School Athletics in week 9. LJBC has moved up to B division for athletics in recent years and narrowly came second in 2019. We aim to win B division this year and be promoted to A division where we can truly show our schools sporting capabilities.

With the introduction of the Football Academy, we have seen a major increase in high-level athletes who have been showing their potential throughout the year. The Inter House Carnival will be a great display of their abilities within athletics with a few school records sure to be broken. We cannot wait to see what they will be able to achieve at the ACC Inter School in week 9.

Many students who are looking to further develop their understanding of the sport, have begun training with the school on Wednesday mornings. Sprinting and endurance training sessions are run during this time by ex-students who have not only competed at a state level but in national events. Many young students show great potential, which means the College’s athletic achievements will continue to excel in years to come.

The LJBC Inter School team will be packed with high-level athletes with a few students receiving ACC All-Stars awards after last year’s competition. This means that they finished in the top two out of every single school in the entire ACC athletics competition for their given event. These students have been training throughout the year to improve and try to break some of the Inter School records on their way to helping LJBC winning B division.
